1995 Sun Bowl
The 1995 Sun Bowl was a college football bowl game played on December 29, 1995 at the Sun Bowl in El Paso, Texas. The game featured the Iowa Hawkeyes from the Big Ten Conference and the Washington Huskies from the Pac-10 Conference. The Sun Bowl was one of the 1995–96 bowl games concluding the 1995 NCAA Division I-A football season.
After two straight bowl losses to Washington, in the 1982 Rose Bowl and the 1991 Rose Bowl, Iowa got a measure of revenge with the win.
The Hawkeyes entered the game with a 7–4 record (4–4 in the Big Ten). They started the season with five wins and peaked with a No. 18 ranking. After losing four straight conference games, the team rebounded to finish sixth place in the Big Ten standings. Three of their four conference losses came to ranked teams.
This was Iowa's first appearance in the Sun Bowl.
The Huskies entered the game with a 7–3–1 record (6–1–1 in the Pac-10). They finished tied for first place in the Pac-10 standings with USC, a team they led 21–0 in the fourth quarter before the game ended in a 21–21 tie. USC was selected for the Rose Bowl by virtue of more non-conference victories than Washington. The Huskies entered the game ranked No. 20 in both major polls
This was Washington's third appearance in the Sun Bowl. They won the 1979 edition by beating Texas 14–7 and lost the 1986 game to Alabama 28–6.
Iowa scored first, after running back Sedrick Shaw rushed for a 58-yard touchdown, and a 7–0 Iowa lead. Kicker Brion Hurley added a 49-yard field goal, to make it 10–0 after one quarter of play.
In the second quarter, Iowa got a safety, increasing its lead to 12–0. Zach Bromert added a pair of 33 and 34-yard field goals, to push the lead to 18–0. Brion Hurley added a 47-yard field goal before half time to make the score 21–0 at the end of the half.
