had to google JJ, doesn't seem to be the same guy in the pick
Yes, what's the story there?  That kinda went over my head.   Is he just saying the Iowa defense is going to lock him up and its a picture of some random guy in jail?

Possibly a random Michigan coach.

It should be noted that Iowa's DL is a little undersized compared to previous years.  This is ok against passing teams but could be a problem against any old fashioned power rushing teams.  Iowa St did not get a lot of points against Iowa but they were able to get some first downs running the ball.  Michigan can maybe exploit this. 
I noticed that.  Thinking/hoping Michigan's OL can handle them and produce some decent gains on the ground being >= 4 yards.

The first three Questionable on Michigan's list would be huge losses each.

Iowa has plenty of decent RB's that can fill in for Moulton but not having the TE Vonnahme would be a big loss for Iowa.   Vonnahme has the potential to be the next TJ Hockeson or Sam LaPorta.

Michigan offense stats through 3 weeks:

Pass yards per game, 175.7, NCAA Rank 110th
Pass TD per game, 1.3, 95th
Completion percentage, 61.8, 89th
Rush yards per game, 147.7, 91st
Rush yards per carry, 4.1, 100th
Rush TD per game, 2.0, 68th
Scoring offense, 27.3 pts, 93rd
Total offense, 323.3 yds, 118th

Not expecting Michigan's offensive stats to improve with the Iowa game.

I can't forget that Michigan has home field advantage, at an amazing home field.

Today, I do not see Michigan in the top 50 in Total Offense:



I wish there were rankings for Special Teams, but I know of none that covers the full breadth of special teams.

Michigan makes an appearance in the rankings for Total Defense, but Iowa does, as well:
