MINNESOTA RALLY TOPS IOWA
Minnesota scored two touchdowns in the fourth quarter to rally for a 22-21
win over Iowa in Minneapolis. The Gophers scored the winning points on a
fourth down, three-yard run with 2:48 remaining in the game. Iowas defense
held Minnesota out of the end zone on the two-point conversion attempt, but the
Hawkeyes were unable to move into eld goal position on their last possession.
Iowa dominated much of the game, but the Hawkeyes were able to convert just
three of six red zone possessions into points. The Hawkeyes missed two eld
goals in the rst half before taking a 7-0 advantage on a 12-yard pass from QB
James Vandenberg to WR Marvin McNutt, Jr. The play completed a 53-yard
scoring drive following a fumble recovery by DB Jordan Bernstine. Minnesota
answered with a touchdown with 1:13 left in the half, leaving the score tied at
seven at the midway point.
Iowa drove 63 yards on its rst possession of the second half, taking a 14-7
lead on a one-yard run by RB Marcus Coker. After the Iowa defense forced a
second straight three-and-out, the Hawkeyes seemed poised for another score after
reaching the Gopher 14. But a Vandenberg fumble was recovered by the Gophers
and Minnesota drove to a 28-yard eld goal.

BRETT GREENWOOD FOUNDATION ESTABLISHED
Former Iowa DB Brett Greenwood (2007-10) collapsed during a routine workout
in early September. His heart stopped due to an abnormal heart-rhythm, which
resulted in injuries to his brain. Brett is recovering and working hard to regain his
strength and mobility.
Many have expressed a desire to support Brett in a tangible way. As a result, the
Brett Greenwood Foundation has been established to accept contributions that will
be used to directly support Brett as he continues to recover.
Individuals who would like to contribute to the Brett Greenwood Foundation
can make a donation at any of the 74 Wells Fargo banking stores in Iowa or the
6,300 locations across the nation. Donations also can be made online at www.
bregreenwoodfoundaon.com or by mail at attn: Brett Greenwood Foundation,
Wells Fargo, 2001 Spruce Hills Dr., Bettendorf, Iowa, 52722.
HIGH SCORING FOURTH QUARTER
Iowas 24 points in the fourth quarter of the 41-31 win over Northwestern matched
the highest scoring quarter of the season. Iowa scored 24 points in the second
quarter in the 34-7 season-opening win over Tennessee Tech. Iowa has not scored
more than 24 points in any quarter since the 2009 season, when it scored 28 points
in the nal quarter of a 42-24 win over Indiana. Iowa, twice, scored 21 points in
a quarter during the 2010 season and added 21 points in the second quarter of the
most recent win over Indiana.
IOWA EFFICIENT IN FOURTH
Iowas offense was efcient in the fourth quarter of a 41-31 win over Northwestern
on Oct. 15. The Hawkeyes scored points on four straight drives after the score was
tied at 17 and ended the game at the Wildcat 15-yard line. Iowa drove 64 yards
in 11 plays to take a 24-17 lead and later moved 71 yards in just three plays for a
14-point advantage. The Hawkeyes added a eld goal after a Northwestern fumble
and added their nal points on a 24-yard drive after recovering an on-side kick.
EFFICIENCY CONTINUED . . .
Iowa scored touchdowns on all ve rst half possessions in the win over Indiana
and added a eld goal on its rst drive of the third quarter. Dating back to the
Northwestern game the previous week, Iowa scored on 10 of 11 possessions in
the two games, with the only non-scoring drive coming at the conclusion of the
Northwestern game when Iowa reached the Wildcat 15-yard line as time expired
in the 41-31 win.
Against Indiana, Iowas opening drive took over seven minutes and covered 69
yards. The Hawkeyes ended the second period with a 53-yard drive that took just
four plays and 44 seconds.
IOWA COMEBACKS
Iowas rally for a 31-27 win over Pittsburgh (Sept. 17) is believed to be the largest
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.

based on total wins. Iowa posted a record of 77-40-4 (.652)
during the 1980s and the Hawkeyes were 62-53-2 (.538) in
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.
Current 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
assistant coaches David Raih and Charlie Bullen. That leaves
Ken OKeefe (offensive coordinator), Erik Campbell (wide
receivers), Phil Parker (defensive backs), Reese Morgan
(offensive 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.

Michigan, Missouri, New Jersey and Wisconsin; two from
Minnesota, Nebraska and Pennsylvania; one from California,

GAME RECAP
Penn State took advantage of three Iowa turnovers in the fourth
quarter in taking a 13-3 win at University Park. Iowa had won three
straight meetings against Penn State and the last two games at
PSU. The series is now even at 12 wins each.
Penn State drove to a eld goal on its rst drive, taking a 3-0
advantage after an opening drive that lasted over eight minutes.
Iowa responded with its only scoring drive of the game, as Mike
Meyer tied the game with a 23-yard eld goal that completed a 12
play, 72-yard drive. Due to time consuming drives, each team had
just two possessions in the rst period. The Nittany Lions took the
lead with 4:59 remaining in the second period when Anthony Fera
booted his second 20-yard eld goal of the half.
Iowa still trailed by just a eld goal late in the third period when
CB Micah Hyde came up with an interception in the end zone to
stop a Penn State scoring threat. The theft was Hydes third of the
season.
Iowa moved across mideld after collecting the only PSU
turnover of the game, but a QB sack by Penn State resulted in a
Hawkeye fumble and the home team took over at the Iowa 49-yard
line. Penn State drove for the only touchdown of the game from
there, scoring on a two-yard pass on third down.
Iowas next two possessions ended with PSU pass interceptions,
the second coming on a tipped pass with just 3:42 remaining. The
Nittany Lions held Iowa on downs on its last possession and ran
out the clock to earn the win. The Hawkeye offense was held to
just 114 yards total offense in the second half.
LB James Morris led the Iowa defense with 13 tackles and LB
Christian Kirksey recorded 10 stops and a forced fumble. DL
Mike Daniels recorded eight tackles, including a tackle for loss.
Hyde added eight tackles and two pass break-ups to go with his
interception and DB Jordan Bernstine added eight tackles and one
pass break-up.
QB James Vandenberg completed 17-34 passes for 169 yards,
but did not have a touchdown pass for the rst time in ve games.
WR Marvin McNutt, Jr. led the Iowa receivers with four catches for
73 yards. RB Marcus Coker led the ground game with 18 attempts
for 74 yards.

GAME RECAP
Senior WR Marvin McNutt, Jr. stole the show as Iowa celebrated
homecoming with a 45-24 win over Indiana. Iowa scored
touchdowns on each of its ve rst-half possessions and added a
eld goal to cap its rst drive of the third period.
McNutt, Jr. led the Iowa offense with six receptions for 184 yards
and three touchdowns. He had an 80-yard scoring reception on
Iowas second possession to give the Hawkeyes a 14-7 lead. That
play ties as the ninth-longest scoring pass in school history and
gives McNutt, Jr. three of the 10 longest scoring receptions at Iowa
(92, 88 and 80 yards). He added a 24-yard scoring catch on Iowas
next possession as Iowa took a 21-14 advantage and never looked
back. McNutt, Jr. had his third score in the nal minute of the rst
half, with his 29-yard reception giving Iowa a 35-14 advantage at
the break. He now holds the Iowa record for career touchdown
receptions (24).
The Hawkeyes drove 69 yards on their rst possession, ending
a seven-minute drive with a one-yard run by RB Marcus Coker.
Coker added his second score, a two-yard run, to give Iowa a 28-
14 lead with 1:38 remaining in the half. Coker led Iowas ground
game with 23 carries for 139 yards. Coker has rushed for over 100
yards in four of seven games in 2011.
Iowas only scoring of the third period came on a 47-yard eld
goal by Mike Meyer. The Hawkeyes ended their scoring with 3:10
remaining in the game when TE Brad Herman grabbed a one-
yard pass from QB James Vandenberg. Meyer made all six PAT
attempts to remain perfect (28-28) on the season.
Vandenberg had the most efcient day of his career, completing
12-16 passes for 253 yards, with no interceptions. The four scoring
passes are a career high. Iowa gained 456 yards total offense, with
203 rushing yards to go with Vandenbergs passing total.
Indiana scored touchdowns on its rst two drives of the day,
but from that point was held to just a eld goal until adding a third
touchdowns in the nal minute of play.
Sophomore LB Christian Kirksey led the Hawkeye defense with
12 tackles, just one shy of his career best. DB Tanner Miller and
LB James Morris each added 10 tackles, while DE Broderick Binns
had two tackles for loss and DB B.J. Lowery had two pass break-
ups.

GAME RECAP
Minnesota scored two touchdowns in the fourth quarter to rally
for a 22-21 win over Iowa in Minneapolis. The Gophers scored the
winning points on a fourth down, three-yard run with 2:48 remaining
in the game. Iowas defense held Minnesota out of the end zone on
the two-point conversion attempt, but the Hawkeyes were unable to
move into eld goal position on their last possession.
Iowa dominated much of the game, but the Hawkeyes were able
to convert just three of six red zone possessions into points. The
Hawkeyes missed two eld goals in the rst half before taking a
7-0 advantage on a 12-yard pass from QB James Vandenberg to
WR Marvin McNutt, Jr. The play completed a 53-yard scoring drive
following a fumble recovery by DB Jordan Bernstine. Minnesota
answered with a touchdown with 1:13 left in the half, leaving the
score tied at seven at the midway point.
Iowa drove 63 yards on its rst possession of the second half,
taking a 14-7 lead on a one-yard run by RB Marcus Coker. After
the Iowa defense forced a second straight three-and-out, the
Hawkeyes seemed poised for another score after reaching the
Gopher 14. But a Vandenberg fumble was recovered by the
Gophers and Minnesota drove to a 28-yard eld goal.
Iowa increased its advantage on its following possession,
covering 71 yards in just seven plays. Vandenberg completed a
12-yard pass to OL Woody Orne (tackle eligible) on third down
before Coker scored his second touchdown from the one, and Iowa
led 21-10 with 13:51 to play.
Minnesota closed the gap to 21-16 with 8:22 remaining, driving 80
yards in 11 plays. The two-point conversion failed, but Minnesota
kept momentum by recovering an onside kick to maintain
possession. The Gophers drove to fourth down at the three, where
QB MarQueis Gray scored the winning points.
Iowas offense dominated much of the rst three quarters.
Despite just seven offensive plays in the nal quarter, Iowa gained
446 yards total offense and had just one punt. Minnesota gained
371 yards total offense, with 155 yards coming in the nal period.
In addition, 100 of Minnesotas 193 passing yards came on two
long completions that led to 10 Gopher points.
Coker led the Iowa offense with 32 attempts for 252 yards and
the two scores. The yardage ranks as the third best single-game
total in school history. Vandenberg completed 16-24 passes for
177 yards and a touchdown, with no interceptions. McNutt, Jr. led
Hawkeye receivers with seven receptions for 101 yards.

Nielsen each added six stops and DB Shaun Prater had his third
caused fumble of the year.
