the fact that they can be so good on defense and yet so terrible on offense at the same time is astounding. Doesn’t make sense.

So as different as Purdue and Iowa are,  they both have an offensive coordinater named Brian who is a direct family member of the head coach. 
apparently the Brohm family knows a little more about Offense

yup, Iowa favored by 9

Northwestern might not score

Iowa might not score 9

well, it's doubtful for the offense
Wonder if Vegas will even post an over/under as their boxscores have been bat shit crazy.Odds makers might be afraid that opponents might load their defenses with offensive guys

Both Brohms are former NFL QBs. Brian Brohm is Co-Offensive Coordinator, and QBs coach.
Brian Ferentz was never a QB, but he too is an offensive coordinator, and QBs coach.
The downside of nepotism is especially telling when there is a performance problem, and for which nothing is done, or the wrong thing is done. There was a doubling down and tripling down on Brian Ferentz, and promoting him to QBs coach, when it was obvious at the end of last season he should have been demoted to position coach, or fired. Coaching O-Line would be in his bailiwick; the O-Line is awful and needs help. The QB position is awful and needs help, but not from Brian Ferentz. Iowa has Jon Budmayr on staff as an analyst. He played QB, and has been a QBs coach.

A team could have a statistically bad defense because they have a run and shoot offense along with most of their opponents.  I don't think this is the case here.

A run and shoot themselves in the foot offense, perhaps.
