Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz says practice, not pixie dust is the only hope to fix the Hawkeyes’ woeful offense.
In a 3-3 start, the Hawkeyes have scored a total of seven touchdowns as they prepare to visit second ranked Ohio State. By contrast, the Buckeyes scored seven touchdowns in their last game. A blowout victory over Michigan State.
There is a lot to fix. The Hawkeyes rank at or near the bottom nationally in virtually every offensive category.
Ferentz is sticking with senior Spencer Petras, even though he is the lowest rated quarterback in the country.
Iowa is already a four touchdown underdog and if the offense can’t stay on the field and generate points it could get ugly.
Ferentz says the Buckeyes are always loaded with talent but they are at an even higher level this year.
