NU vs. Iowa by the numbers

Just like every week, I'm only considering stats from conference games.  The numbers are percentile rankings (such that 100 is the best rating you can get and 0 the worst).  No adjustment has been made to reflect strength of schedule differences.

yards per carry allowed: 7 to 76

Rushing Offense

yards per game: 82 to 11

Our rushing defense is just ... sad.  OTOH, our rushing offense is encouraging.  Our ground game against the Hawkeye defense should make it an interesting game.
