UW has a strong home-road split in fundamental stats on offense, but practically identical stats on defense. Why?
Opponent effects. F+ rankings of home opponents skewed to strong off/weak def; road vice versa. The performance difference is real, but weaker than it appears ...

Charting Iowa's defense is like watching Drunken Master - clumsily invite the opponent into the redzone only to even more stupidly avoid points.
This is the 1st of 3 explosive passes effectively undefended in c-4, then USC doesn't even think to throw to Lemon on the walk-in.
