Five things to know about Iowa, which has the worst offense in the FBS and is having its worst start to a season since 2008, but pulled off an upset in its last matchup with OSU.
The Hawkeyes have created 10 turnovers this season, which ranks just 56th in the country, but that’s still four more than the Buckeyes have managed so far. On offense, though, Ohio State should give Iowa its toughest test of the year.Iowa’s 3-3 record is its worst six-game stretch to start a season since 2008 when the Hawkeyes dropped three straight through Week 6 before finishing 6-1 through the rest of the year.
Ohio State is the only ranked team left on Iowa’s schedule, but its early struggles haven’t left a lot of hope for a complete turnaround heading into the back half of its regular season schedule. Entering that weekend, Ohio State had won 13 of its last 14 games against Iowa, and the Buckeyes have yet to get a shot at revenge. While much of the personnel hast turned over since then, Ryan Day will still remember it well, as the contest took place during his first season in Columbus.Entering his fifth season in the program, one would think Spencer Petras might have his best season under center for the Hawkeyes. But one would be wrong.
