Iowa will be without head coach Kirk Ferentz on Saturday when the Hawkeyes host Illinois State. Ferentz is serving a one game suspension for a recruiting violation and assistant head coach Seth Wallace will have the final call on the sideline.

Ferentz wants to see the new offense under coordinator Tim Lester play a sound game.

The Hawkeyes are a three touchdown favorite but Ferentz says upsets happen every week.

Pre-game coverage on KJAN begins at 9-a.m., Saturday, with kick-off at 11-a.m.
