“When you turn the ball over and can’t protect the way you need to it’s going to be tough to win. ” - Kirk Ferentz
In back-to-back games Iowa has struggled to put together consistent drives and create nearly any points. Last week it was four interceptions, four sacks allowed, and struggles in pass defense. This week it was three turnovers (all deep in Iowa territory), and six sacks. That is even a thankful number because there should be a 7th when Petras miraculously escaped a sack where a defender stopped because he didn’t want to get one of those penalties on a clear shot on a quarterback.
