IOWA CITY, Iowa — The Iowa athletics department conducted a media tour Wednesday afternoon of the new football practice facility replacing the Bubble, which was deflated last April. The facility is set to be completed by Aug. 21, but the Hawkeyes will be able to begin using it for practices on Aug. 3, which is when the team’s fall camp is slated to begin.
Below are some photos taken during Wednesday’s tour:

The same turf installed at Kinnick Stadium in 2009 is in place inside the new practice facility, including the end zones being painted black.
