Answer:

Confirmation bias

Explanation:

Confirmation bias refers to a behaviour in which a person searches for, interprets or recalls information in a way that is designed to strengthen the beliefs that he already had. This usually occurs when people remember things selectively, or when they interpret those memories in a biased way. In this example, Tyler is an Iowa Hawkeyes fan, and the way in which he remembers the games and the role of the team is selective and biased in order to confirm his belief on the superiority of his team.
