Iowa defends the pass through osmosis
First, the front four puts pressure on the QB.
Second, linebackers are asked to cover pass receivers.
(Iowa has been able to develop some "super linebackers" because Parker's system overloads them with run and pass responsibliities).
Third, a premium is placed on pass interceptions.
Finally, Iowa pass defenders are not asked to prevent the pass catch just prevent the big play...
This year, the front four has not put consistent pressure on the QB.
Our linebackers are young and/or undeveloped.
We've intercepted a good number of passes - only one of three phases of Iowa's pass defense has been successful.
There hasn't been a "guardian" between "bend but don't break'" pass defenders and the pass.
I don't understand, why do so many fans blame KOK?
How many points are needed to ensure an Iowa win when the team has a weak pass defense?
38 - against Michigan?
30 - against Wisconsin?
21 - against Northwestern?
Wouldn't it be easier and more productive to recruit and use athletes that use schemes that try to prevent the pass catch?
