What is the record for a defensive lineman scoring

Submitted by fortheinfo on Wed, 2007-09-19 12:30.

Playing defensive tackle for Ohio State in 1958, Jim Marshall had a dream game for a lineman. The future Minnesota Vikings standout scored both of Ohio State's touchdowns as the Buckeyes and Purdue played to a 14-14 tie on November 8 in Columbus, 0.

In the first 2 minutes of the game, Marshall returned a blocked punt 22 yards for a TD. He then intercepted a deflected Boilermaker pass in the second quarter and ran it back 25 yards for a score. Richard Brooks. With 2 minutes, 2 seconds left in the game and Ohio State leading, 14-6, Brooks caught a seven-yard touchdown pass from Ross Fichtner and then hauled in a game-tying two-point conversion pass from Purdue halfback Clyde Washington.

Jim Houston. He blocked the Purdue punt and deflected the Boilermaker pass on Marshall's scoring plays. Bob Jarus. His three-yard TD run in the fourth quarter gave Purdue its first points of the game. A pass attempt for a two-point conversion failed. David Kilgore. Ohio State kicker who coverted after both of Marshall's touchdowns.
