IOWA CITY, Iowa -- University of Iowa assistant football coach Brian Ferentz was named CoachingSearch.com Offensive Line Coach of the Week following Iowa's 29-20 homecoming win against Illinois on Oct. 10.

The Hawkeye rushed for 278 yards against the Illini, averaging 5.5 yards per carry and chewing up nearly seven minutes on a fourth quarter drive that included 11 consecutive rushes for 59 yards.

The offensive line played without its starting left tackle, finished the game without its starting right tackle, yet still paved the way for running back Jordan Canzeri to rush for 256 yards on a school-record 43 attempts.
