Big Ten Championship 2023 Preview

The Wolverines enter this game on a mission, looking to earn their third straight Big Ten title. Michigan has never won three conference championships in a row before, so Jim Harbaugh’s team has a chance to make history.

The Wolverines are fresh from beating their top rivals, the Ohio State Buckeyes, 30-24, last weekend. Michigan quarterback J.J. McCarthy played well, completing 16-of-20 passes for 148 yards and a touchdown. Most importantly, the Michigan QB eliminated mistakes against a top-5 ranked Buckeyes defense.

McCarthy had help from his running game, as top back Blake Corum chipped in with 88 yards and two touchdowns on 22 carries. Defensively, Michigan intercepted Ohio State quarterback Kyle McCord twice, with both picks making a huge difference in the game.

The Wolverines averaged 37.6 points per game on offense this season. Defensively, Michigan has allowed 10.3 points per contest, which is ranked first in the nation.

On the other side, the Hawkeyes are coming off a 13-10 win over Nebraska on November 24. Hawkeyes QB Deacon Hill struggled, going 11-28 for 94 yards, an interception and a rushing touchdown. Iowa running back Leshon Williams gave the offense a boost, adding 111 yards on 16 carries.

On defense, Iowa forced three Nebraska turnovers, also holding the Cornhuskers to just 75 yards rushing all game.

Under veteran head coach Kirk Ferentz, Iowa averaged just 18 points per game on offense this season. The team’s defense led the way all year, surrendering 12.2 points per contest, which is ranked fourth in the FBS.

Michigan leads the all-time series against Iowa, 44-15-4. The Wolverines have won the last two games in the series, including a 27-14 road win last season.

The broadcast crew for the game includes Gus Johnson, Joel Klatt and Jenny Taft.

Michigan vs Iowa: What They’re Saying

“They’re real physical, they’re really hard-working. They want to run the ball, that’s what they want to do. And they can pass the ball — they have a lot of athletes out there as well. But I know they want to establish who they are as an offense, establish a dominance. And we have to match that.” — Iowa defensive back Sebastian Castro on the Wolverines.

“Coach Ferentz does a great job of making sure that they’re well-coached, and in the right spots at all times. That’s something about Iowa’s defense that makes them so good all the time is they’re disciplined, their techniques and coverages, they don’t do a lot, but they do it really well.” — Michigan QB J.J. McCarthy on Iowa.
