Iowa’s Kirk Ferentz is the Big Ten’s all-time leader in wins after a 47-7 victory over UMass. It was his 206th victory as Hawkeye coach and he passed former Ohio State coach Woody Hayes.

Ferentz credits the players he has coached over the years.

The Hawkeyes have a short week before opening Big Ten play at Rutgers on Friday night.
