Gronowski's performance was mixed. He was actually pretty good in the short passing game, hitting his targets on time and in stride to get excellent yards after catch. The medium passing game was tentative, with throws being both a little late and often behind receivers.
It looked like Iowa game planned for the short passing game. The offensive line was dominant. Moulton was good in both the running and receiving game. RS Freshman Vonnahme seems to be coming along at TE. It was good to see Vander Zee in there getting good work as Iowa's only tall wide-out.
Gronowski's short passing game was there this game. The intermediate passing game was serviceable but tentative. The long passing game really hasn't connected so far this year. Contrast this with Gronowski's performance in the Rutgers game where he was effective in intermediate to long intermediate passing, but throwing bricks in the short game.
Hopefully, with Vander Zee back and Vonnahme coming along, we will see a bit of red-zone passing to complement the running game.
