Scoring wise our offense is worse by 3 ppg overall and 4 ppg vs P5. Both have played 3 P5 teams and 2 others. Both have played one top 10 opponent. Quote Link to comment

Both have played 3 P5 teams and 2 others. Both have played one top 10 opponent. Our offense is a dumpster fire, no doubt. But if we are isolating it to offense, those numbers could be adjusted. They have a defensive touchdown and a special teams touchdown, which drops them down to 0.6 ppg better. And their kicker is 8/9 while our is 1/4, despite no 50+ yard attempts. So basically a wash points wise when limited to the offense, their defense and special teams are helping them. And not just in the field position sense, actually contributing points. The fact that the points are basically even is not something to brag about, by any means. But they are also averaging 4.3 yards per play, which is second worst in the entire country ahead of Sam Houston State. We're averaging 5.8, which is slightly below middle of the pack. We need to figure out how to turn the yards into points (maybe stop turning it over and start making field goals), they need to figure out.. just about everything. 2 Quote Link to comment

Iowa’s scoring figures include at least 2 defense/special teams TD’s, so NU and Iowa’s offenses are about as equally inept. 1 3 Quote Link to comment
soup Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 And as has been mentioned before. This is year 15+ of their offense, and year one of ours. 3 1 Quote Link to comment

Very true. That plus our turnovers equals the difference in record so far. Somehow they still manage to win games at a high rate. 1 hour ago, soup said: And as has been mentioned before.

My only concern (as usual with this game) is whether we can avoid too many problems on offensive/special teams. I believe in our defense, I don't yet believe in the offense avoiding mistakes and special teams executing consistently. Quote Link to comment
