Ferentz moves into tie for Big Ten's win leader

Kirk Ferentz moved into a tie as the Big Ten's all-time winningest coach after winning his 205th game with Iowa on Saturday.

Iowa's Kirk Ferentz in tie for Big Ten's winningest coach​

Ferentz, in his 27th season as coach of the Hawkeyes, won his 205th game with the program, tying Ohio State's Woody Hayes on the conference's all-time list.....:pissed: The longest-tenured active head coach in college football, Ferentz is 205-124 all-time at Iowa and has a 217-145 career record.

The milestone, though, wasn't much of a topic in the post-game celebration in the locker room.

"You know how humble he is," quarterback Mark Gronowski said. "I said something to him about it, and he just kind of shrugged it off."

"It was just good to get the win," Ferentz said. "That's what we came for."

Just sayin': Kirk Ferentz = Mr. Humble...... :lol:

Most Kirk Ferentz milestone ever. Woody had less than half the number of losses (61) when he got to 205.

And coached in an era when they played less games per year.

It’s a counting stat. Ferentz has been solid for 27 years.

Solid. Not great. Not dominant.

Just Solid.

Yeah.
As long as we're counting, how many national championships has Kirk won? I'm pretty sure it's 0.
And how many Big Ten championships has Kirk won? I had to look it up. It's 2 (2002, 2004).
I don't mean any disrespect to him. I don't know him at all. But he's no Woody.

And that 2002 B1G Championship was shared with the Buckeyes simply because they didn't play each other that year. IIRC the Bucks won something kinda big that year themselves.

I'll keep my opinions out of this post.
I guess congratulations are in order.
He legitimately has the most wins against Big Ten teams in history.

Edit: He has the most wins as a coach of a Big Ten team. Not necessarily over Big Ten opponents.
