Iowa Football's Kirk Ferentz Ties Woody Hayes' Record for Most Wins at a Big Ten School

Kirk Ferentz secured his 205th win, tying the Big Ten record held by Woody Hayes, marking his 23rd season opener victory in 27 years at Iowa.

  • Kirk Ferentz, Iowa Hawkeyes head coach, moved into a tie for the Big Ten wins lead with his 205th victory as Iowa defeated Albany 34-7 on Aug. 30, matching Woody Hayes.
  • Having led Iowa for decades, Kirk Ferentz, the longest-tenured active head coach in college football, used his extended run to climb the Big Ten wins list.
  • Xavier Williams rushed for a touchdown after replacing injured starter Kamari Moulton, while Mark Gronowski completed eight passes, scored a rushing touchdown, and exited with cramping.
  • Iowa heads to Iowa State next Saturday, while Albany travels to Delaware State next Saturday; a Hawkeyes win would give Ferentz sole Big Ten wins lead.
  • His overall Iowa record is 205-124 , including a 128-88 Big Ten record and a 10-11 bowl slate, ranking Kirk Ferentz among conference coaching leaders.
