Of the 131 teams in the FBS ranks, Iowa ranks No. 130 in total offense at 242.2 yards per game. The Hawkeyes’ offensive ranks for rushing, passing and scoring are all 119 or lower. An Iowa offensive lineman, however, thinks the Hawkeyes are turning a corner.

Center Logan Jones recently shared that the offense is doing well in practice. Chad Leistikow shared that Jones is “super excited” that QB Spencer Petras is looking better and the unit as a whole is starting to click.

Iowa is on the road in Week 6, facing Illinois on Saturday. Bret Bielema’s squad leads the nation in scoring defense, allowing just 8.4 points per game. The Illini are No. 3 in total defense, giving 229.2 yards per game.

We’ll see if clicking in practice translate to success Saturday.
