Iowa football: Where Nate Stanley ranks among Big Ten West QB’s

Nate Stanley will be entering year three as the starting quarterback for the Iowa football team. The senior from Menomonie, Wisconsin grabbed the starting gig as a sophomore over Tyler Wiegers. He would go on to complete 55.8 percent of his passes for 2,432 yards with 26 touchdowns and 6 interceptions in 2017.

His 26 touchdowns tied Chuck Long‘s single-season record and if not for an Akrum Wadley early celebration penalty against North Texas, he might have broken the record. Stanley followed his sophomore season with a 59.3 percent for 2,852 yards and matched his 2017 touchdown total.
