Petras played 52 third-down passing plays. Iowa got a first down or touchdown 18 times (34.6%). Of the 34 failed attempts, Petras threw an incomplete pass 21 times, completed too short of a pass to get the first down seven times, was sacked five times, fumbled once, scrambled and ran short of the sticks once, and threw one interception.

Padilla played 35 third-down passing plays. Iowa got a first down or touchdown 10 times (28.5%). Of the 25 failed attempts, Padilla threw an incomplete pass 18 times, completed too short of a pass to get the first down five times, was sacked twice, and threw an interception.

What does this mean? Probably that I have way too much time on my hands.
What sticks out? How shockingly awful the YPA are for both QBs!
Some notable YPAs this season (Keep in mind, this isn't just for third-down, but to give you some idea): Adrian Martinez had a 9.36. Tanner Morgan had an 8.2. Brock Purdy had an 8.11.
