THE KICK
Marshall Koehn kicked a 57-yard eld goal as me expired to defeat Pi, 27-24,
on Sept. 19. The game-winning eld goal was the second longest in school history
and ed the Kinnick Stadium record (Arizona’s Lee Pistor in 1977).
Aer Pi ed the game, 24-24, with 0:52 le in the fourth quarter, Iowa DB
Desmond King picked up a squib kick at the 3-yard line and returned it 27
yards to the Iowa 30. QB C.J. Beathard picked up two rushing rst downs to move
the ball into Pi territory, and aer a pair of sideline routes to WR Tevaun Smith
fell incomplete, Beathard scrambled for eight yards to the Pi 39-yard line. Iowa
then used its nal meout to stop the clock with two seconds le.
On fourth-and-2, Pi called a meout to freeze Koehn. Koehn let a kick sail
anyway, but it landed far short of the goal post. On the ensuing aempt, Dillon
Kidd placed a snap from Tyler Kluver on the Pi 47-yard line, and Koehn split the
uprights, giving Iowa its rst walk-o eld goal since 1986 (Holiday Bowl).
KOEHN EARNS BIG TEN HONOR
K Marshall Koehn was named Big Ten Conference Special Teams Player of the
Week for his performance in Iowa’s 27-24 win over Pisburgh Saturday night.
The Big Ten honor is the rst for Koehn (6-foot, 200-pounds), a senior from
Solon, Iowa (Solon HS). He is the second Hawkeye to earn a weekly conference
honor this season (QB C.J. Beathard vs. Iowa State). He is the rst Iowa kicker to
earn the special teams award since Mike Meyer was recognized following a 19-16
double overme win at Michigan State in 2012.
Koehn delivered the winning margin against Pisburgh as he booted a 57-yard
eld goal as me expired. The kick ed the Kinnick Stadium record for longest
eld goal (Lee Pistor, Arizona, 1977) and ranks as the second longest in Iowa his -
tory (58 yards, Tim Douglas at Illinois, 1998). With a 52-yard kick in the 24-20 win
at Pisburgh in 2014, Koehn now has two of the nine longest eld goals in Iowa
history. It was the rst walk-o eld goal for Iowa football since Rob Houghtlin
connected from 41 yards to win the 1986 Holiday Bowl.
THE DRIVE
Iowa put together a 99-yard scoring drive on its second possession of the season.
It was the Hawkeyes’ rst 99-yard touchdown drive since 2002. Iowa passed six
mes and rushed six mes while converng ve rst downs on the drive. QB C.J.
Beathard was 4-of-6 passing for 63 yards. He also carried once for two yards. RB
LeShun Daniels, Jr., carried four mes for 18 yards, and RB Jordan Canzeri took his
rst carry of the season ve yards into the end zone. Canzeri also had a 21-yard
recepon.
Iowa has put together four drives covering nine or more plays and 80 or more
yards four mes this season tying for the most in the country through three games
(Texas A&M, Bowling Green, and Florida State).

BAPTISM BY FIRE
Iowa starng tackles LT Boone Myers and RT Ike Boeger entered 2015 with
one combined career start (Boeger started as a second ght end against Wis-
consin in 2014). The sophomores replace a pair of NFL lineman -- 2014 Outland
Trophy winner LT Brandon Scher (Washington Redskins) and RT Andrew Donnal
(St. Louis Rams).
Myers joined the program as a walk-on and was put on scholarship prior to the
2014 season. He saw acon in four games last season. Boeger joined the team
as a ght end but was moved to oensive line in 2013. He saw acon in seven
games as a redshirt freshman in 2014.
FIND THE NFL-ER
Since 1999, Kirk Ferentz’s rst year as UI head coach, the Hawkeyes have had
a future NFL player start on the oensive line in every season.
In each of the last eight years, an eventual NFL rst-round dra pick started
on the oensive line. Brandon Scher, selected by the Washington Redskins h
overall in 2015, was Iowa’s le tackle from 2012-14. Riley Rei, selected 23rd
overall by the Detroit Lions in 2012, started at le tackle from 2010-11. Bryan
Bulaga, selected 23rd overall by the Green Bay Packers in 2010, started at leguard in 2007 before moving to le tackle in 2008-09.
From 2005-06, Balmore Ravens All-Pro Marshal Yanda shared me at tackle
and guard for the Hawkeyes. Mike Elgin, a seventh round selecon of New England,
was Iowa’s starng center in 2004. Pete McMahon, draed by Oakland in 2005,
was Iowa’s right guard in 2003. Oakland’s rst round pick in 2004, Robert Gallery,
was Iowa’s le tackle from 2001-03. Eric Steinbach (Cincinna) started at guard
for Iowa from 2000-02, and Bruce Nelson (Carolina) was a four-year starter from
1999-02. Both players were second round dra picks in 2003.
