Ranking what I believe were the better teams in order.
2002- Brad Banks. We all know the accolades but like it or not he had the best supporting cast in KF Era. Weapons everywhere. Best Oline ever at Iowa. If he doesn't hurt his hand against ISU we are 12-0 that year. His bowl game was a disaster unfortunately.
2009- Ricky Stanzi. Again, same theme as Banks. Difference was Stanzi was a turnover machine. Not sure but I think Stanzi threw more pick sixes that year than Petras did TD's last season. Stanzi had really nice weapons to throw to but no running game.
2015- CJ Bethard. Very steady. No weapons. Decent line and decent run game. CJ on any other of the better teams is a Heisman candidate. Made a lot out of nothing.
2020- Spencer Petras. Yeah I know people bash the dude left and right but cut the kid a break. He is the classic big arm statue QB with an oline that was literally the worst in pass protection last year. When he was given time to throw he was decent. Yeah he was limited but at least when CJ had no weapons the line was solid. In 2020 people were excited about Spencer cuz he had some really good moments.
I think Cade is better than all of these guys. I think Cade is going to have the best arsenal of weapons in the KF Era. I think the offensive line is going to be at least on part with 2009 and 2015. If everyone stays I think 2024 line will rival 2002. Yeah, I said that!!
I am so jazzed right now
