Michigan 18.5 point favorites

That seems like a line you literally bet your life savings on...

So Michigan will probably be up 42-10 with six minutes left and Iowa will score two BS touchdowns to make the final score 42-24.
 
and Iowa pumped. I went to a certain Penn State Iowa game a few seasons back with Iowa having no chance of winning. That worked out OK.

Come on, man! It's 2016! This Iowa team doesn't do "emotional", let alone "pumped". And that game "a few seasons back" was actually 8 seasons ago - way back when Iowa had a talented team and a solid homefield advantage.
 
Nice opportunity to showcase Capt. Kirk's coaching ability on national stage. 7 PM ABC... lots of eyes on that one.

Lots of eyes also will get to enjoy . . . .errr . . . ummm . . . suffer thru the heroes game as well. The National Embarrassment train keeps a rollin along.
 
Short of a miracle, no way Michigan scores anything less than 55 points. And no way we score any more than 24 (counting garbage time TDs against Michigan's 4th string defense).
 
I remember back when KF teams were competitive against superior teams. Man, this not having hope thing sucks .
 
I'm impressed by the optimism shown in here. There are people that actually think the Hawks are going to score a TD. I'm not sure Iowa is even going to be able to cross mid-field, unless they start on the 40 pretty much every time.
 
In the Fry/Ferentz era the worst Iowa loss at Kinnick was to Illinois 49-3 in 1993. KF's worst loss in Kinnick was his debut against Nebraska 42-7 in 1999.

I think both of these marks are in serious jeopardy Saturday night. Harbaugh has no mercy for the weak and will run up the score to impress the committee in case they lose to Ohio St.

Speaking of that, how many times recently has Iowa started with excellent field position and did nothing with it???

The only time KF is appreciative of a gift is when it has Gary's name attached to it. But then this season doesn't feel like a thank you so maybe I'm wrong about that.
 
I'd bet Michigan up to at least 28. The only reason Harbaugh wouldn't run up the score is because he doesn't care about recruiting all of these gritty, gutty, corn-fed, think-ankled Iowa recruits. That being said, I bet he does. 63-10 Michigan.
