Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz has rough day shaving and with the kicking net

Fans watching the Iowa vs. Purdue football game on Saturday likely had questions about the cut below Hawkeye coach Kirk Ferentz's eye. During the team's postgame radio show, Ferentz joked that he had done a hasty shave just hours before the match. The cut had gotten bumped pregame, and it began bleeding. Ferentz found humor in his mistake, blaming himself for not taking more care while shaving, acknowledging his wife's recent advice to purchase new razors.

He admitted he was not focused on his actions, much like missing a turn on the highway due to distraction. Ferentz also recounted a fall into the kicking net during the game. He expressed confusion over the net's proximity, exclaiming, "Who put that net there?" The Iowa team ultimately triumphed with a score of 28-7 at Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City.
