FAYETTE -- Upper Iowa University hopes to score big with an autographed Super Bowl program bearing champion quarterback Eli Manning's signature.

The college advertised in the program, which is available on eBay. Proceeds from the auction will bolster student scholarships.

Manning led the New York Giants to victory in February over the New England Patriots. Above his name on the program's cover he wrote "Go Peacocks!"

Bidding on the program and ad is under way.

The autograph and program are part of Team Peacock's annual fundraising effort. Upper Iowa President Alan Walker created the group four years ago to participate in Ragbrai, the annual bicycle trek across the state. Team Peacock has so far raised more than $127,000. This year's goal is $100,000.
