Iowa’s offense is currently ranked 133 of 133 in the FBS. Through 7 games, they have 13 total offensive TDs and have punted the ball 47 times. They average less than 250 total yards per game.
Despite this, they have a top 10 scoring defense and are sitting comfortably atop the Big 10 West at 6-1.
They are favored in all their remaining games pretty heavily according to ESPN’s FBI:
73.1% vs Minnesota
83.5% @ Northwestern
70.5% vs Rutgers
75.6% vs Illinois
67.5% @ Nebraska
Which brings their odds of winning-out to 22%, nearly equal to calling two coin flips correctly in a row.
We may need to start accepting the reality of an 11-1 Iowa going to the Big 10 championship game with the worst offense in college football.
