Week 7: Iowa (4-1) at Michigan (5-1)

  • Leonardo
    Both teams need a win to stay in the hunt for the Big Ten Title. 3:30 PM kickoff on ABC in Ann Arbor

    Iowa won last year, 30-28

    Might as well beat everyone to it. "Iowa wins, Michigans gimmick offense doesnt work when they play a real defense, Denard cant pass and Michigans D is horrific"

    Well their defense is horrific, the rest of it I don't necessarily agree with.
  • believer
    Iowa will win this one relatively easily. The Hawkeyes are more solid on both sides of the ball. Michigan is still one year away from making noise.

    And the MSU game proved any of that wrong how?

    IDK about this one. I think Iowa will win this one but not to sure it will be a blow out. Stanzi always finds ways to keep the other team in it. If Iowa can get the running game going early they should roll.
  • vball10set
    Stanzi should have a field day--Iowa by 17
  • ptown_trojans_1
    Iowa by 18-21.
    Michigan St. laid the groundwork for a defense to beat Robinson and Iowa's offense is too much for Michigan.

    If Michigan scores 40 they have a shot..

    I'm gonna laugh at you when Iowa beats UM worse than MSU did.

    MSU # 42 total D and # 26 scoring D

    Iowa # 4 total D #1 scoring D

    UM's fucked

    I really hate to say it, but this is how I feel too.

    Even before the MSU game, I was never really confident that this team would contend for the Big Ten. In this conference a good defense is a MUST.

    Next year the defense just needs to be AVERAGE, just not horrible. Robinson and most of our offense will be back, with another year of experience under their belts. Next year is do or die for RichRod.

    "oh wait" because you remembered Arizona ran an INT back 85 yards for a TD and ran a Kickoff back 100 yards for a TD.
  • Cleveland Buck
    Take away those 3 freak touchdowns in the first half of that Arizona game and Iowa is one of the most dominant teams in football so far this season.

    Oh hell let's pretend they won then.

    Look, we all know Iowa should win easy. Have a little fun fellas.

    My feelings will be hurt so bad that a team that should beat us will. You'll sure get me.

    I know you need to get your offense in order if you're R. Rod, but not performing reasonably well in the Big 10 might cost him his job THIS year. Let's face it, the alumni don't care if you're kicking UConns ass.

    Are there young guys in the program that have the ability to step in next year or is there just a complete lack of defensive focus? If it's the latter, and I'm a UM fan (shudder)...I want him gone by Wednesday morning.

    Arizona is a much better team than UM.

    Damn, that is so sweet to take.

    Iowa should win with ease, but Stanzi knows how to fuck a game up at times. I'll go with Iowa 35 Mich 14

    I am putting all my Vcash on Iowa. I figure by doing that, no matter the outcome, I'll have something to be happy about. :D
  • Tiernan
    I give you more crap than anybody Webbie and I think your boys gotta chance in this one. Slim to Snowball in Hell...but a chance.
