Not enough can be said about the way the Iowa offense has performed over the past few games.
Last Friday night against Rutgers, the Iowa offense had to prop up the team after the defense had a less-than-stellar first-half effort.
The defense gave up 21 first-half points, the most they have given up all season to date, and could not slow down Rutgers' balanced attack.
After Kaden Wetjen gave Iowa an early lead by taking the opening kickoff to the house for a touchdown, the offense had to carry the load.
Quarterback Mark Gronowski and running back Kamari Moulton each added a rushing score as the Hawkeye offense moved the ball methodically down the field in the first half.
Gronowski is adamant that the offense continues to improve every single week, but knows this weekend's Homecoming matchup against Indiana will be a tough test.
During Gronowski's media availability this week (posted by "247Sports"), he stated that he and the Iowa offense need to make quick decisions and have a good pre-snap plan in place.
Gronwski said that they have been more aggressive in their offensive game plan, and he feels a lot better in the offense.
Gronowski has always wanted the ball in his hands in pressure moments, and as his confidence grows, the team has more confidence in him.
The Hawkeyes recognize they have a prime opportunity with a ranked Indiana team coming into Kinnick this Saturday, and Gronowski is excited to see the atmosphere in Kinnick this weekend.
The Hawkeyes have been playing good complimentary football over the past few games, but will need a near-perfect performance on Saturday to upset a heavily-favored Indiana squad.
