• The Hawkeyes became bowl eligible in the Week 9 win over Minnesota. Iowa is eligible for the 13th consecutive season and for the 23rd time in the last 25 seasons.
• The Hawkeyes scored a touchdown via offense, defense and special teams in its Week 9 victory over Minnesota. It was the first time for the program since 2020 vs. Michigan State.
• Iowa's defense has recorded an interception in six straight games, including a season-high three against the Gophers. All 10 picks have come in the last six games.
• Senior Drew Stevens made a 58-yard field goal in Week 11 against Oregon, tying an Iowa and Kinnick Stadium record. It is tied for the second-longest make in the NCAA this season.
• The Iowa defense is fourth nationally in total defense (250.2) and scoring defense (13.0), fifth in first down defense (129) and passing defense (146.7) and 17th in rushing defense (103.6). The 13.0 scoring defense would be the lowest in a single season under DC Phil Parker.
• QB Mark Gronowski is the only player in the nation to score a touchdown in every game and the streak is the longest by a Big Ten quarterback all-time. (Arizona State WR Jordyn Tyson has scored in all seven contests; he has missed three games because of injury.)
• Gronowski's 12 total rushing TDs are seventh-most nationally and are the fourth-most among FBS quarterbacks. The 12 rushing TDs are a single season record by an Iowa quarterback.
• Coach Kirk Ferentz has coached in the L.A. Coliseum once before, in 1993 when he was an assistant coach for the Cleveland Browns.
• PK Drew Stevens has made 71 career field goals -- the most in program history. He is also tied for second in school history in career scoring (324).
• Graduate Kaden Wetjen has a 95-yard punt return for a touchdown (Week 3 vs. UMass), a 100-yard kickoff return for a touchdown (Week 4 at Rutgers) and a 50-yard punt return TD (Week 9 vs. Minnesota). He is the only player in the nation to have both a punt and kickoff return TD in 2025.
• Wetjen is also the only player in the country to score via a punt, kickoff, rushing and passing touchdown. He is the first player since 2009 to accomplish the feat.
• Over his last six games, Gronowski has completed 96-of-144 attempts (66.7 percent) for 957 yards and four touchdowns.
• Iowa lost its first fumble since the season opener in Week 11 against Oregon. The team has three lost fumbles in nine games
