What he says isn't wrong. Definitely need something to happen on the offensive side of the ball. With a historically bad offensive line the last couple years it makes it hard to find any kind of consistency in any facet of the game. Mix in a head coach and coordinator that have no imagination and don't want to be "sexy" creates an offense that is dull and easily read by defenses. There have been lots of opposing defensive players over the years that have stated they knew what play Iowa was going to run. Ferentz's motto is they know what's coming, make them stop it. If you don't have the o line to inflict your will in the trenches your conservative ball control offense dosen't do much.
 
Now I will say that Ferentz dosen't get very much top end talent across the board, particularly on offense. He does a good job, probably as good as anyone, of taking lesser players and building winning football teams by sticking to the basics and getting those guys to do the fundamentals well. The last few years they as a whole just get out athleted sometimes. Particularly against the better teams.
