Date of Release: Sept. 21, 2009 IOWA WIN STREAK Iowa’s seven-game winning streak is currently tied for fourth best in the nation with Texas. Florida holds the longest win streak at 13 games, followed by Mississippi (8) and Southern Mississippi (8). Iowa won its final three regular season games a year ago (Penn State, Purdue, Minnesota) and defeated South Carolina in the 2009 Outback Bowl before opening 2009 with wins over Northern Iowa, Iowa State and Arizona. Iowa has won its first three games for the fifth time in 11 seasons under Kirk Ferentz. Previously, Iowa won its first four games of the year in 2003 and 2006 and its first three games in 2001 and 2008. DONAHUE SHARES BIG TEN HONOR Iowa punter Ryan Donahue has been named co-Big Ten Special Teams Player of the Week following his performance in Saturday’s 27-17 win over Arizona. It’s the third straight week the Hawkeyes have had a Big Ten Player of the Week. Linebacker Jerimiha Hunter won co-Special Team honors following Iowa’s season opening win over Northern Iowa and defensive back Tyler Sash won co-defensive honors after Iowa’s win at Iowa State. Donahue is a 6-3, 180-pound junior from Evergreen Park, IL. It’s the third time Donahue has won the league honor. He initially won in 2007 following Iowa’s double-overtime win over Michigan State. He was recognized last season after Iowa’s regular season ending 55-0 win over Minnesota. He shares this week’s honor with Wisconsin linebacker Chris Borland. Donahue averaged 51 yards on five punts against Arizona. He had four kicks of 50 yards or more with a long of 62 yards. He has had at least one punt over 50 yards in 13 of Iowa’s last 15 games. Two of his punts against the Wildcats were downed inside the 20 and only one punt was returned (four yards). He is averaging 44.6 yards a punt on the season. Iowa opponents have returned four punts for a total of only five yards. The Hawkeyes are ranked fourth nationally in net punting with a 42.9 yard average. Iowa had seven Big Ten Player of the Week honorees last season. IOWA RECORDS A DIVISION I FIRST With two blocked field goals in the opening win over Northern Iowa, Iowa tied a school and NCAA Div. I record. Iowa became the only Division I football team to block field goal attempts on consecutive plays. Iowa previously blocked two kicks during a game on five occasions. Most recently, DE Kenny Iwebema blocked two Syracuse field goal attempts in Iowa’s 35-0 win over the Orange on Sept. 8, 2007. On the national scene, Iowa tied the Division I record for blocked field goals in a quarter. Of the previous four occasions, none occurred on consecutive plays. Also with two blocked field goals in a single period are Southern Cal vs. California (10/22/94) and Arizona State (10/11/08); Wyoming vs. Fresno State (11/18/95) and Central Michigan vs. Kent State (10/2/04).

IOWA TO FACE TWO FORMER PLAYERS The 2009 college football season will feature 14 Division I games in which a head coach is facing his alma mater. Iowa is the only team that will face two opponents that are being coached by former players. Iowa defeated Arizona 27-17 last weekend. The Wildcats are coached by former Hawkeye Mike Stoops (1981, 1983-84). Former Hawkeye Bret Bielema (1989-92) is the head coach at Wisconsin (Oct. 17, at Madison). PENN STATE COACH JOE PATERNO Joe Paterno is in his 60th season on the Penn State football coaching staff, including 43 years as head coach. Paterno’s career record is 386-127-3 (.751) since taking over in 1966. He ranks first in all-time NCAA FBS career victories (Bobby Bowden 384). Paterno’s teams have appeared in 35 bowl games, winning 23, won national titles in 1982 and 1986 and posted undefeated records in 1968, 1969, 1973, 1986 and 1994. Last year, he guided the Nittany Lions to an 11-2 record and a share of the Big Ten title. His teams have won as many as 11 games in 14 seasons and he has been National Coach of the Year on four occasions. Paterno has been the Penn State coach for 20 of the 21 meetings between the Hawkeyes and Nittany Lions. IOWA, PENN STATE NOTES Iowa begins Big Ten conference play on the road for the ninth time in 11 seasons under Coach Kirk Ferentz. Iowa is 3-7 under Ferentz in the opening conference game of the season, including 2-6 when opening on the road. Under Ferentz, Iowa has opened conference play against Penn State on two occasions. The Hawkeyes won 24-18 at Iowa City in 2001 and 42-35 (OT) at University Park in 2002. The overtime win in 2002 marked the start of Iowa’s perfect (8-0) Big Ten season. Iowa has played five overtime games in its history and two have come vs. Penn State at University Park (the other three were at home vs. Michigan in 2005, at Syracuse in 2006 and at home vs. Michigan State in 2007). The Hawkeyes are 4-1 in overtime games, with the lone defeat coming to Michigan in 2005. Iowa won both overtime contests at Penn State. Iowa’s 26-23 double overtime victory at Penn State in 2000 was Iowa’s first-ever overtime game. In 2002, the Nittany Lions rallied from a 35-13 fourth quarter deficit to send the game into overtime, only to see the Hawkeyes prevail (42-35). Penn State is playing its fourth straight home game and plays six of its first seven in Beaver Stadium. Iowa has played two of its three games at home and the other was at in-state rival Iowa State. Iowa returns home for its next two games, while Penn State plays on the road for the first time next week (at Illinois). Iowa’s 42 points at Penn State in 2002 matches the highest scored by Iowa in the series (Iowa won 42-34 in 1983). Iowa’s lowest point total in a win over Penn State came by a 6-4 margin in 2004. Penn State ranks second in the nation in scoring defense (6.7) and Iowa is 15th (12.0). Iowa is 25th in pass defense (162.7) and Penn State is 29th (166.0). Iowa’s win at Penn State in 2002 featured the only occasion in which the Hawkeyes have scored two points after blocking an opponent PAT. D.J. Johnson recovered the blocked kick and returned it for two critical points. Iowa has two players from Pennsylvania on its roster, including starting linebacker Jeremiha Hunter from York and DL Thomas Nardo from Lancaster. Coach Kirk Ferentz attended high school in Pittsburgh, Defensive Line Coach Rick Kaczenski hails from Erie and Director of Football Operations Paul Federici earned his bachelor’s degree at Penn State. Iowa will play at Ohio State later this season, giving Iowa two games away from home in which the attendance will exceed 100,000. Iowa has not played at both Penn State and Ohio State in the same season since 1973. Iowa lost at Penn State 27-8 on Sept. 29 and lost at Ohio State 55-13 on Nov. 17 that season.

Head Coach Kirk Ferentz Kirk Ferentz (pronounced FAIR-rintz, rhymes with parents) is in his 11th season as head football coach at the University of Iowa. His latest contract extension, signed this past summer, runs through the 2015 season. Ferentz was honored as the 2002 Associated Press and Walter Camp National Coach of the Year and was the AFCA Regional Coach of the Year that season as well. He was named Big Ten Conference Coach of the Year in both 2002 and 2004. Ferentz guided Iowa to Big Ten titles twice in the last seven years and five January bowl games, including three New Year’s Day bowl victories (2004 Outback Bowl, 2005 Capital One Bowl and 2009 Outback Bowl). Iowa has posted a 62-29 (.681) overall mark and a 36-20 (.643) Big Ten record the last seven-plus seasons. Ferentz has guided the Hawkeyes to seven first division finishes. Ferentz, at Iowa, holds an overall record of 73-53 (.579) and a 43-37 (.538) mark in Big Ten games. In 13 seasons as a college head coach his career mark is 85-74 (.535). Ferentz, who boasts the second-most victories by a Hawkeye head coach, coached his 150th career game as a head coach at Indiana (Oct. 11, 2008). Forty-five of Iowa’s 126 games under Ferentz have been decided by seven points or less (21-24) and 36 were played against opponents who were ranked in the top 25 at the time (14-22). Ferentz joined the Iowa staff after serving as assistant head coach and offensive line coach of the Baltimore Ravens of the National Football League. He had been part of the Baltimore (Cleveland Browns prior to the move) staff for six years. Ferentz was named head coach of the Maine Bears in 1990 and held that position for three years. Ferentz was a member of Hayden Fry’s Iowa staff for nine years as offensive line coach (1981-89). He coordinated Iowa’s running game during his first coaching stint with the Hawkeyes. Iowa appeared in eight bowl games during the time Ferentz was an Iowa assistant, posting a 4-4 record. A pair of Rose Bowls (1982 & 1986), two Holiday Bowl appearances (1986 & 1987) and a pair of Peach Bowl visits (1982 & 1988), along with appearances in the Gator (1983) and Freedom bowls (1984) highlighted his previous Iowa stay. Iowa’s record in those nine years was 7333-4 and included two 10-win and two nine-win seasons. Ferentz was born in Royal Oak, MI, and attended high school in Pittsburgh, PA. Kirk earned his bachelor’s degree in English Education from the University of Connecticut in 1978, where he was a football captain. Kirk received the Distinguished Alumnus Award from the Neag School of Education at the University of Connecticut in May, 2009. He was inducted into the Upper St. Clair High School Hall of Fame in September, 2002 and the Western Chapter of the Pennsylvania Sports Hall of Fame in May, 2003.

The Nittany Lions totaled 203 yards on 47 offensive plays, while the Hawkeyes had 70 yards on only 15 plays, in the first stanza. Penn State closed the half with three-straight scoring drives, all topping 11 plays, 70 yards and 5:00 possession time. PSU PK Kevin Kelly kicked field goals of 24, 25 and 31 yards and RB Evan Royster ran for a two-yard touchdown to give the Nittany Lions a 16-7 cushion early in the third quarter. WR Derrell Johnson-Koulianos caught a 27-yard touchdown pass from QB Ricky Stanzi, on a third-and-13, to cut the deficit to two points at the 4:43 mark of the third period. Penn State answered with a WR Derrick Williams nine-yard scoring run to reclaim a nine-point advantage. Stanzi engineered a 15-play, 57-yard TD drive, that included three third-down conversions (one via penalty), to put the Hawkeyes in position for the game-winning kick. Iowa was 7-8 on third-down conversions in the second half, opposed to 0-2 in the first half, and totaled 202 of its 272 yards in the final 30 minutes. The Hawkeye defense limited Penn State to just 86 yards and 0-5 on third-down conversions in the second half. Stanzi completed 15-25 passes for 171 yards and a score. Greene rushed a game-high 28 times for 117 yards and two touchdowns. Johnson-Koulianos caught a game-high seven passes for 89 yards and a score.

The Hawkeyes drove 75 yards for a touchdown on their opening drive, with Adam Robinson getting the score from the two. Arizona tied the game on the interception return and took the lead on a 20-yard field goal. The field goal came after the Wildcats had a first and goal at the Iowa one.

Iowa scored three points with a win in football and two points for a 2-0 soccer win, while Iowa State won the volleyball match. Iowa holds a 3-2 advantage in the in-state competition that began in 2004-05. The Hawkeyes captured the Hy-Vee Cy-Hawk Series a year ago by a 21-4 margin. Last season, Iowa captured victories in football, women’s soccer, women’s cross country, men’s basketball, women’s basketball, wrestling, women’s gymnastics (twice) and softball. The Cyclones recorded wins in volleyball and men’s cross country. Along with the series win a year ago, Iowa captured the inaugural Hy-Vee Cy-Hawk Series (13-8) in 2004-05 and won again in 2006-07 (13-8). Iowa State won the competition in 2005-06 (13-8) and 2007-08 (18-9). The 13-event series awards two points (except football, which is worth three) to the winning school in each head-to-head match-up between the two institutions. Additionally, two points are awarded to an institution if the graduation rate of its student-athletes is greater than the national average as reported each fall by the NCAA.

Instant replay was used once in the first period and once in the third. On Iowa’s opening drive, a fumble at the goal line was confirmed as called on the field, an Iowa touchdown. In the third period, replay was used to confirm a call on the field, that a long pass by Arizona was incomplete. Three Iowa players started for the first time in their career. Those players were junior TE Allen Reisner, junior WR Colin Sandeman and sophomore DB Shaun Prater. Sandeman had career-bests in both receptions and yards (five catches for 47 yards).
PENN STATE STOPS TEMPLE Penn State improved to 3-0 with a 31-6 home win over Temple. The Nittany Lions used a balanced offense and a strong defense in claiming the win. PSU held Temple to 46 rushing yards on 29 attempts and just 251 yards total offense. The Owls scored on field goals in the first and third periods. The Nittany Lions took a 7-0 advantage in the first period and then added two touchdowns in the second quarter to take a 21-3 halftime advantage. Penn State rushed for 186 yards and had 173 passing yards in gaining 359 yards total offense. RB Evan Royster led PSU with 134 rushing yards on 19 carries, including a seven-yard touchdown run. QB Daryll Clark completed 16-26 passes for 167 yards, including scoring strikes of one and four yards. Linebacker Josh Hull and Sean Lee led the Penn State defense. Hull had 13 tackcles, including 1.5 tackles for loss. Lee collected 12 tackles, including 2.5 tackles for loss and a QB sack. Lee was named Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week. IOWA DEFENSE SOLID Iowa’s defense has been solid through three games. After allowing one touchdown in the opening win (second period), the Hawkeye defense did not allow a touchdown for nine straight quarters. That streak ended late in the win over Arizona when the Wildcats scored with 1:53 to play. Iowa ranks 11th nationally in pass efficiency defense (85.7), 15th in scoring defense (12.0) and 25th in pass defense (162.7). The Hawkeyes are also fourth in net punting (42.9). Arizona rushed for over 300 yards and averaged over 500 yards total offense in its first two games. The Iowa defense held Arizona to eight first downs, 148 net rushing yards, 253 yards total offense and 2-12 on third down conversions. Iowa is plus three in turnover margin through three games, with six interceptions. Linebackers Pat Angerer and A.J. Edds are the only senior starters on the Iowa defense. Dating back to 2008, Iowa’s defense has not allowed a rushing touchdown in 25 consecutive quarters, including the final 13 quarters last season and 12 quarters this season. Penn State, with a touchdown in the third period of the game last Nov. 8, is the last team to score a rushing touchdown against the Iowa defense. SPREADING THE OFFENSE In the 35-3 win at Iowa State, Iowa quarterbacks Ricky Stanzi and James Vandenberg completed passes to 12 different receivers. That is the highest number of Iowa players to have at least one reception in a game since 13 different Hawkeyes had at least one reception in a 43-7 win over Iowa State Sept. 13, 1986 in Kinnick Stadium. Earlier this season the 12 players included seven wide receivers, three tight ends, one running back and one fullback. In 1986 the 13 receivers included seven wide receivers, three running backs, two tight ends and one fullback.

Iowa at Penn State - - Beaver Stadium TALENTED DEFENSIVE NUCLEUS RETURNS Iowa returns eight talented defensive starters from a year ago. The list includes ends Adrian Clayborn and Christian Ballard (who will see action at both end and tackle), linebackers Pat Angerer, A.J. Edds and Jeremiha Hunter and backs Brett Greenwood, Tyler Sash and Amari Spievey. Eight of Iowa’s top 11 tacklers from last season return for 2009. Angerer ranked first in team tackles (107) and tied with Sash for the team-lead in thefts (5). Hunter amassed 80 tackles to rank second. Edds totaled 59 stops and has started 25 straight games. Spievey recorded 68 tackles, 43 of which were solo. He also collected four interceptions. Greenwood also was credited with 68 tackles. Sash accounted for 53 tackles and five interceptions, returning the thefts a team-best 147 yards. The 147 yards rank as the second-most interception return yards in a single-season. Sash was named by Rivals.com as the top defensive freshman in the Big Ten. Clayborn and Ballard registered 50 and 40 tackles, respectively. Ballard started all 13 games a year ago and Clayborn had 11 starts, missing two games due to injury. They are both juniors. DEFENSE MADE A STAND IN ‘08 Iowa, in 2008, ranked fourth in the country in interceptions (23), fifth in scoring defense (13.0) and pass efficiency defense (98.32), ninth in rushing defense (94.0), 12th in total defense (291.3) and 19th in red zone defense (76%). Iowa’s defense forced 67 punts, 42 three-and-outs (31.4%), blocked a field goal (Northwestern) and a punt (Wisconsin) and collected a safety (Maine). Iowa’s defense allowed only seven rushing touchdowns in 2008, which ties the Iowa record for fewest in a single-season (1981 and 1984). Iowa recorded 23 interceptions to tie a school single-season record (23 in 1986). Nine different Hawkeyes intercepted at least one pass in 2008 and Iowa had 439 return yards (and one touchdown). IOWA NOTES Iowa is one of 10 college football programs in the nation to compete in at least five January bowl games over the last seven seasons. Iowa has been bowl eligible in each of the last eight seasons.

Iowa has placed in the Big Ten Conference first division in seven of the past eight seasons, winning the league title in 2002 and 2004. Iowa has recorded at least one takeaway in 36 of its last 38 games, dating back to the 2006 campaign. Against Iowa State, Iowa scored 28 points after collecting six turnovers. Iowa scored three points following an interception against Arizona, but did not score in game one after collecting one Northern Iowa turnover. Last season, Iowa scored 99 points following 32 opponent turnovers. Over the past eight plus years, Iowa is 50-7 when leading at the half and 55-6 when leading after three quarters. Iowa sold out six of its seven home games in 2008 and the 2009 opening game vs. Northern Iowa. The Hawkeyes have sold out 38 of their last 39 games, dating back to the 2003 season. The last Iowa game not sold out was vs. Purdue (Nov. 15, 2008). That ended a 36-game consecutive sellout streak that began vs. Buffalo (Sept. 6, 2003). Iowa’s four losses in 2008 came by a combined 12 points (21-20 at Pittsburgh, 22-17 vs. Northwestern, 16-13 at Michigan State and 27-24 at Illinois). Three of the four losses were on the road. Iowa won all three traveling trophy games in 2008. The Hawkeyes defeated Iowa State 17-5 to gain possession of the Cy-Hawk Trophy, Wisconsin 38-16 to claim the Heartland Trophy and Minnesota 55-0 to keep Floyd of Rosedale. Iowa’s 35-3 win at Iowa State on Sept. 12 keeps the Cy-Hawk Trophy in Iowa City.
WATCHING FROM ABOVE Iowa’s coaches in the press box are Lester Erb (running back and special teams), along with quality control Scott Southmayd and graduate assistant coaches Dan Clark and Charlie Bullen. That leaves Norm Parker (defensive coordinator), Ken O’Keefe (offensive coordinator), Erik Campbell (receivers and tight ends), Phil Parker (defensive backs), Reese Morgan (offensive line), Darrell Wilson (linebackers and special teams), Rick Kaczenski (defensive line) and Eric Johnson (assistant linebackers) on the sidelines. KINNICK STADIUM TOPS BIG TEN The Sporting News ranked Iowa’s Kinnick Stadium as the best college football stadium in the Big Ten Conference in its pre-season publication. Kinnick Stadium was also selected as the best stadium in the Big Ten by the Sporting News in 2007. HAWKEYES ON THE TUBE All Iowa football games this season will be televised on either ABC, ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, Big Ten Network or Fox Sports Net. The last Iowa contest not televised was vs. Minnesota on Nov. 17, 2001. Iowa has appeared on television in its last 93 games.
