By The Numbers: Iowa vs. Troy

Last week stunk, there’s no two ways about it. I’m not going to spill any more ink on that. I can’t, for my own sanity.

Troy went out and hired Gerad Parker (late of Notre Dame), but they lost a lot, and not just in the coaching staff.

As noted in the September Preview:
