Game Thread: No. 18 Michigan vs. No. 17 Iowa

Undefeated conference rivals lock horns this afternoon as the eighteenth-ranked Michigan Wolverines host the seventeenth-ranked Iowa Hawkeyes to begin Big Ten play. Both squads enter the matchup carrying identical three-and-zero records, though the hosts are looking to sustain momentum after compiling over four hundred yards of offense during a victory over UTEP last week.

Kirk Ferentz's defensive unit presents a steep challenge following dominant performances against Northern Illinois, Northern Iowa, and Iowa State. Meanwhile, quarterback Bryce Underwood and the home side aim to limit fumbles and demonstrate that their recent scoring surge can translate against one of the toughest opponents on their schedule.
