What have you seen that has somewhat worked for Iowa on offense this year? Are there two running plays which have a type of blocking that seems to get positive yards most of the time?
Could three tight end sets with the tight ends in tight to block start as a play that can get some yards?
If it can then can you run some pass plays off of that formation.
A reductionist technique is used many times to solve complex problems. We all know what the offensive problems are but what can be the simplest fix at this point?
The right side of the OLine is poor but might be good enough in straight ahead blocking with the help of a tight end and fullback to at least get 3-4 yards per run. Then add to that run to either side the simple fullback slips out of the backfield to catch a pass, run the same running play behind the left side, play action and roll out with a faster qb who could run or pass.
Get a few plays and practice them over and over like Lombardi's Green Bay Packer sweep plays and a trap play, which is about all the running plays they used.
I know it sounds like 1950's and 60's football but it might be the only way this offense can gain 300 yards a game, move the chains, and maybe score 17 points which is what the defense needs.
