The broadcast crew nearly ran out of fingers, toes, and other placeholders to count Iowa’s consecutive drive streak against P5 schools without scoring a touchdown. For two consecutive weeks Iowa’s offense was able to move the ball into scoring position, but struggled to put points on the board. It took a highlight reel catch by Brandon Smith to finally end a drive in the end zone. We are going to be using Skycam video to show what’s going on with Iowa’s offense. This week we focus on the passing game.
Last week the offense was a total train wreck with penalties, turnovers, and general dysfunction, but this week actually featured quite a few positive plays.
