A Brandon Valley graduate who now plays wide receiver for the Iowa Hawkeyes had himself a memorable night Saturday.

Matt VandeBerg caught seven passes for 129 yards and a touchdown in the Hawks' 42-3 shellacking of arch-rival Iowa State, but what happened after the game was even more special.

The senior found his girlfriend, Laura Bulanda, in the Kinnick Stadium stands and proposed. She posted a video to Instagram, which you can find below.

According to Mike Hlas of The Gazette in Cedar Rapids, Hawkeyes quarterback C.J. Beathard joked that he threw to VandeBerg so much because he knew of the planned proposal.

"On the sideline, (Beathard) told me, 'That's why I threw to you so much. I wanted to make sure she said yes," VandeBerg told The Gazette.
