Last time we talked about the Stanford offense, and how Iowa matched up with them. This time we move to the other side of the ball, and this is where Iowa should have an advantage. That is, if the coaching staff opens up the playbook and lets the players make plays.
Let's get into it, shall we?
When Iowa has the Ball
Per Drive Stats | Points Per Drive | Points Per Value Drive | Points Per Long Drive | Yards Per Stop | Touchdown Percentage |
Iowa Offense | 121 | 101 | 123 | 118 | 124 |
Stanford Defense | 100 | 102 | 96 | 98 | 112 |
Looking at the five factors for winning a football game, Iowa has advantages in everything but field position on offense.
