Probably a @DaddyBigBucks question, but how much of Iowa's defensive stats are due to opposing offenses not having anything but short fields to attack. To be sure Iowa D is very very good. I just wonder if there's a built in statistical anomaly built in because the O is so bad.

That is definitely a thing. There is a countervailing influence though. Iowa's D has to face a lot more possessions because their offense can't stay on the field.

Even though the game was never in doubt, there’s nothing wrong with pointing out when the team isn’t living up to their own standards. That’s what the coaches will do when they meet with the team to study the film. They still have work to do and things to fix and it’s not being negative to say so.

Like the coaches say, it’s better to learn after a win than it is after a loss. But there are still teachable moments galore in this game. But that’s how it always goes. That’s part of a team making its way to playing their best ball in November.
