IOWA CITY, Iowa -- It was Jordan Canzeri or bust.

Canzeri carried the ball a school-record 43 times for 256 yards -- the third-most yards in program history -- to lead the 22nd-ranked University of Iowa football team to a 29-20 victory over Illinois on Saturday afternoon inside Kinnick Stadium.

Iowa, who is bowl eligible for the 14th time in 15 seasons under UI head coach Kirk Ferentz, moves to 6-0 overall and 2-0 in Big Ten play heading into next week’s road contest at No.
