and making this selection possible -- while iowa last played in the rose bowl in 1991 -- their last win came in january of 1959 -- nearly 57 years ago -- but this has been a special team -- they'll be looking to make a bit more history on new year's day -- mac -- thanks mark as a reminder -- the hawkeyes will play standford at four in the afternoon on new years day. moments ago -- kwwl's kristen rogers talked with the hawkeye head coach to hear about this selection. kristin? he says the rose bowl is good medicine after last nights loss to michigan state. he said he is excited for the players to have this opportunity this year. the hawkeyes lost in the final seconds in indy to michigan state when l.j. scott reached for a touchdown... before the touchdown, iowa's defense had held michigan state to just three field goals. the kirk ferentz has said he is proud of this team, and he has certainly happy with the bowl selection this

" the rose bowl is the granddaddy of them all, you opponent, that certainly will be the case this year, i think equally important right now to our fans, they're really excited about this opportunity." the hawkeyes have just one loss this season, while stanford has two. ferentz says he will give his team some time off this week before they get back to work. we also heard from some hawkeye players this afternoon, i will we've got you covered live in iowa city, kristin rogers kwwl news. thanks kristin -- so in case you missed it -- like we mentioned -- the hawkeyes are set to play stanford at four in the afternoon on new years day. and it's going viral-- senator joni ernst mistweets a message -- congratulating the hawkeyes on their big win. the only problem -- they lost in the final minutes to michigan state. this tweet was online for nearly nine minutes last night --
