Iowa's Offense: 40th Overall, 50th in Scoring

Yes, we're all aware of what our current record is.
There were 49 other teams that scored more than 40? Whatever happened to defense in D- football?
More one-sided games in week 1 than any week of the season.
If that went to 75 and 75 Iowa probably makes the playoffs if the defense stays healthy.
I would beg to differ. The Iowa offense you saw in the second half is just the beginning. With a healthy Cade and a decent O-line--made better by a mobile QB--a stable of RBs, emerging wide receivers, and excellent TEs . . . well, that's a pretty solid group. And Iowa now has an actual OC and QB coach, so the Hawkeyes are for real. Like it or not.
this ranking is pretty much as high as i dared to wish/hope for iowa and lester hits it game one? in the past we've usually ranked worse on total offense than scoring offense. unusual to see these flipped in the kf era.
i still don't feel like we moved the ball as predictably as a #40 offense should but this opinion is only based on eyetest. anybody know how many yards we averaged on first down?

My concern is what happens when KF comes back? I've long held him accountable for our offensive woes and our game without him yesterday only emboldens my stance. We gotta keep this up going forward and I just hope KF doesn't get in his own way like he always seems to do offensively.
There's reason to be optimistic here but it can go away as soon as next week against a supposedly sub par defense. A lot is riding on this next game outside of just who the opponent is.

You're tied with Nebraska, but then Nebraska pulled the starters in the 3rd quarter.
Yup, and gave up a touchdown. Debby still sucks.
We're really at a point where Nebby fans are bragging about beating UTEP. And then, as if that wasn't enough, they come to the board of a team that has beaten them 7 of the last 9 times (I think that's right), including the most recent game, to choose to do it?
Well, I mean I guess I get it but wow. Just, yeah, wow.
You and eyesofhawk really need to meet. Those conversations would be absolutely enlightening to see.
