With the bye week upon us, I wanted to dive deeper into the Iowa Hawkeyes’ offense at large. Many here and elsewhere have been critical of what we’ve seen from Brian Ferentz in his 17 games as offensive coordinator.
But is it that far out of line with what we’ve seen from past Hawkeye offenses? I’m not just talking Kirk Ferentz offenses because the eye test says it is not. How does the Iowa offense of today compare, statistically, to all of those since the revival of the Hawkeyes by none other than Hayden Fry in 1979?
