Matchup to watch: Kirk Ferentz vs. Reality

I thought it’d take at least a couple of weeks before I wrote some drivel about a matchup which really isn’t a matchup. But man, after a game where Iowa looked UTTERLY driftless on offense. I have to bust out a five-year-old trope.

(But if anyone wants a real matchup, it’s Will McDonald IV vs. Connor Colby(?). If Iowa State’s career sack leader works whomever Iowa puts at right tackle, it probably renders the below words moot. Iowa could probably put Josh Allen under center and he’d struggle behind the line.)

Back to Kirk Ferentz: Iowa’s offense was helpless in 2021.
