How bad has Iowa been offensively over the past several years? Bad enough that even a division of the United States government took a shot at the Hawkeyes.
The person who runs the official X account for the House Judiciary Committee Republicans did Iowa dirty on Thursday night. As a way of trolling president Joe Biden, the account highlighted a portion of a quote from the Commander in Chief in which Biden said his administration needed to “go on offense tonight.” The GOP shared the quote along with a photo of former Iowa quarterback Spencer Petras huddled up with his teammates.
That is just cold, but Petras had a great reaction.
Iowa went 10-4 this season despite averaging 15.4 points per game, which was the second-lowest mark in the entire country. The betting totals for some of their games were truly surreal .
