I would like to say yes, but I do not see much difference in Nate Stanley’s performance from last year. Last season, he came up short and he is bound to do the same this year.

Iowa will face some tough opponents such as Maryland, Northwestern, and Penn State in the coming weeks. The Terrapins and Nittany Lions are both in the top 50 for points scored against, which could dampen Iowa’s offense.

Iowa has a mix of offensive weapons and it may not always rely on Stanley’s arm for a touchdown.

The other games the Hawkeyes have coming up are Purdue, Illinois, and Nebraska, which people could consider easy games. This is where most people believe Stanley will score numerous touchdowns, but I don’t believe this to be the case.

Iowa tends to play with the same intensity as the other team, which means Stanley and the Hawkeye offense might not play to theirfull potential. If Stanley can stay energized, and keep the Iowa offense alive like last week, he should not have any problem beating the record.

There are only six games left in the regular season, and Stanley already has 15 touchdowns. He is definitely on the path to break the single-season touchdown record, but it all depends on how the offense plays in these last six games.

The only way I believe Stanley can beat it is if the Hawkeye offense stays healthy and energized for the next six weeks. If Iowa’s offense does not play to its potential in any of the games from this point forward, Stanley will not break the record.
