Michigan Wolverines vs Iowa Hawkeyes prediction
I’m not excited to lay chalk with the Iowa Hawkeyes, but they’re at home, and it’s the home team that’s won 8 of the last 10 meetings between these Big Ten teams. The Michigan Wolverines aren’t the same team they’ve been these last couple of seasons, and they refuse to play much defense. Texas Tech, Oregon, and Indiana all had their way offensively in wins over the Wolverines. At the Carver-Hawkeye Arena, where shots seem to fall for the home team at a high clip, the Hawkeyes should be able to get a nice conference win.
