Iowa has lost a second major offensive player to a torn ACL.
Coach Kirk Ferentz confirmed Tuesday that tight end Erick All would miss the remainder of the season. All suffered a torn ACL in his right knee during the No. 24 Hawkeyes’ win over Wisconsin on Saturday.and tight end Luke Lachey suffered a season-ending right ankle injury against Western Michigan in September. Saturday, All injured his knee when he was tackled by Wisconsin's C.J. Goetz after making a catch over the middle.
Despite playing in just three games, Lachey is still tied for second on the team with 10 catches. Backup QB Deacon Hill became the starter after McNamara’s injury and is completing less than 40% of his passes and averaging 4.4 yards an attempt. For the season, Iowa is averaging fewer than 117 passing yards per game and the team’s offense is averaging just 4.4 yards per play.
But even though the Iowa passing offense has been dreadful this season, the Hawkeyes are 6-1 and can still be considered the favorites to win the Big Ten West thanks to an incredibly good defense and a lead of at least a game over everyone else in the division. Iowa is allowing just 15 points per game and Rutgers is the only team remaining on its schedule with a winning record.
