Michigan football vs. Iowa live score, updates, highlights from Big Ten championship game
For the second time in three seasons, No. 2 Michigan (12-0, 9-0 in Big Ten play) is set to face Iowa in the Big Ten championship game.
The last time the Wolverines and Hawkeyes faced off with the Big Ten title on the line, the Wolverines beat the Hawkeyes 42-3. The margin of victory is irrelevant for Jim Harbaugh and Co.: Win vs. the Hawkeyes (10-2 7-2) and you're in the College Football Playoff for the third time in as many seasons.
The Wolverines are already coming off their toughest test of the season, outlasting Ryan Day and Ohio State (11-1, 8-1) without Harbaugh on the sidelines. The defense nabbed two interceptions, including one to seal the game, in a 30-24 victory over the Buckeyes. But J.J. McCarthy, Blake Corum and Co. will have to take on an equally impressive defense on Saturday.
