Iowa has thicker armor everywhere and better speed. How on Earth would someone consider SoDak as superior to Iowa? Don't forget her guns. Iowa had the 16 inch 50 cal. Mark 7 while SoDak had the 16 inch 45 cal. Mark 6. Iowa's guns were longer and had better muzzle velocity than her predecessors, if I'm not mistaken.
