Iowa State Auditor Rob Sand is tying his latest fundraising effort into the University of Nebraska’s recent football futility.

In a fundraising letter sent Friday morning under the title “Booooo, Nebraska!”, Sand writes: “Hawkeye, Panther or Cyclone: we can all agree that Nebraska is the worst. So while you enjoy cheering against them today, know that I am doing the same.”

Sand goes on to ask for a $24 donation, “in honor of the 24 great years it has been since Nebraska last won a championship”.

Sand has been rumored to run against Republican Governor Kim Reynolds in 2022. Last July Sand told KCJJ he was considering a gubernatorial run, but had not yet made a decision.

#16 Iowa defeated Nebraska 28-21.
