and adding touchdowns on its next two drives. The consecutive scoring streak
ended when the Huskers missed a eld goal on their rst drive of the second half.

plays for their rst score in the third quarter. Minnesota later ended the game with
a 16-play scoring drive that covered 89 yards. For the game, nine of 11 Minnesota

home games since the nal game of 2007.
IOWA COMEBACKS
Iowas rally for a 31-27 win over Pittsburgh (Sept. 17) is believed to be the larg-
est comeback for a win in Hawkeye history, as the Hawkeyes trailed by 21 points
(24-3) with 3:11 remaining in the third quarter. Following is a list of previous Iowa
rallies that are believed to be the largest in school history:
Iowa rallied from an 18-point decit in a 34-31 win over Oregon in 1949 in
Iowa City. Iowa trailed 24-6 with 2:30 left in the third quarter against the Ducks.
Iowa rallied from a 17-0 rst half decit for a 30-27 win at Minnesota in 1986,
winning on a 37-yard eld goal with one second remaining.
Iowa rallied from a 17-0 rst half decit for a 37-30 home win over Michigan
State in 1996. Iowa rallied to tie the game at 23 and 30 before scoring the win-
ning touchdown early in the fourth period.
Iowa rallied from a 14-point decit for a 42-24 win over Indiana in 2009 at Kin-
nick Stadium. The Hawkeyes trailed 21-7 in the third period when an 86-yard
interception return sparked Iowas rally.
Iowas rally ties as the second largest this season among FBS teams. Houston
rallied from a 27-point decit to take a win over Louisiana Tech, while Nebraska
rallied from 21 points down to defeat Ohio State.
TEN IS BIGGEST LOSS
Iowas 13-3 loss at Penn State marked the rst Iowa loss by more than nine points
in 48 games, dating back to a 31-6 loss at Purdue on Oct. 20, 2007. Iowa had not
lost a game by more than a touchdown in 43 games, dating back to a 28-19 loss
to Western Michigan on Nov. 17, 2007. Both streaks ranked as the longest in the
nation. In the loss at Penn State, Iowa failed to score a touchdown for the rst time
since that 2007 loss at Purdue.

the 1990s.
Part of the Hawkeye success is due to the stability in the
program, as Iowa has had just two head coaches since 1979.
Hayden Fry took over prior to the 1979 season and coached
through the 1998 season, posting a record of 143-89-6. Cur-
rent Coach Kirk Ferentz replaced Fry, leading the program for
the last 12 seasons. Ferentz also served as Iowas offensive
line coach from 1981-89 under Fry.
WATCHING FROM ABOVE
Iowas coaches in the press box are Norm Parker (defensive
coordinator) and Lester Erb (running back and special teams),
along with quality control Scott Southmayd and graduate as-
sistant coaches David Raih and Charlie Bullen. That leaves
Ken OKeefe (offensive coordinator), Erik Campbell (wide
receivers), Phil Parker (defensive backs), Reese Morgan (of-
fensive line), Darrell Wilson (linebackers and special teams),
Rick Kaczenski (defensive line) and Eric Johnson (tight ends)
on the sidelines.
ROSE BOWL EXPERIENCE
Four members of the Iowa coaching staff have coached or
played in the Rose Bowl. Kirk Ferentz coached in two Rose
Bowl games while on the Iowa staff. Norm Parker and Phil
Parker both coached in the Rose Bowl while on the staff at
Michigan State. Erik Campbell played in one Rose Bowl
during his Michigan career and coached in four others while
on the Wolverine coaching staff.

The roster includes 16 players from Illinois; 10 from Ohio;
ve from Maryland; four from Florida and Texas; three from
Michigan, Missouri, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Wiscon-
sin; two from Minnesota, Nebraska; one from California,
Connecticut, Georgia, Indiana, Maine, Massachusetts, Mon-
tana, New York and South Dakota; and one from Australia
