"Old School" is the College Football FanHouse's irregular look back at the rich history of college football, usually through the medium of embeddable flash video. Check out the Old School archive for more famous plays and infamous hair.
Seriously old school this time: Michigan and Iowa's 1956 battle at Kinnick. I wish game highlights were still narrated like this:
This has to be one of the rare instances in the history of Michigan football that they were scheduled as a homecoming opponent, and Iowa paid for it. Despite the loss, Iowa would win the Big Ten at 9-1; Michigan finished 7-2.

1. Just think how great it would be if they still called them like this:
"And Mike Hart scores with a razzle-dazzle romp of 33 yards!"
"The receiver is Mario, last name Manningham."
