Iowa So Far

Iowa has allowed 13 points in three games. The Hawkeyes shut out Northern Illinois 40 to 0 and Northern Iowa 55 to 0, and the one close game was a 16 to 13 win over Iowa State. That is the Iowa formula, and it travels.

Michigan So Far

Michigan’s three wins have come in very different shapes: a 13 to 12 escape against Western Michigan, a 17 to 10 win over Oklahoma, and a 52 to 17 rout of UTEP. The offense found itself last week. Whether it holds up against the best defense it has seen is the game.
