Ryan Day said all the right things about Iowa's highly-rated defense but how will the Hawkeyes fare against a top-tier rushing and passing offense?
Through six games, Iowa's faced just one top-50 passing offense , one top-60 total offense and one top-85 scoring offense .
So let's go back to Michigan, the one respectable offense Iowa's faced thus far. To their credit, the Hawkeyes held the Wolverines to 172 yards rushing on 4.1 yards per carry, both well-below Michigan's season averages of 241 yards per game and 5.8 yards per attempt. Of course, Michigan's passing game hasn't struck fear in opponents this year and Iowa had little trouble keeping it in check holding the Wolverines to 155 yards versus their season average of 232 yards per game. The Hawkeyes also held Michigan to 27 points versus the Wolverines season-to-date average of 42.7.
