Iowa City, Iowa — Iowa football coach Kirk Ferentz says he is confident the coaching staff can fix an ailing offense.
Despite a 10-4 finish to last season the Hawkeyes were next to last in the Big Ten in total offense by averaging just over 303 yards per game.
Ferentz says the competition at quarterback is wide open. Veterans Spencer Petras and Alex Padilla are in the mix along with redshirt freshman Joey Labas.
Ferentz says the Hawkeyes need more efficiency in the pass game and more consistency on the ground.
Ferentz does not feel a complete change in style of offense is needed and the goal remains to win games.
