I didn't see any evidence that the Big Ten commish had disdain for Harbaugh and instructed the officiating crew to favor the Buckeyes

so, I don't expect the Hawkeyes to get any help.  Maybe even some hindrance if they put up a good fight in the 1st half
Probably not,  but if Michigan ever needed any extra motivation,  the fact that the commish will have to present the Big Ten trophy to Harbaugh provides just a little extra incentive to Michigan to win.

I understood your point from the 2015 reference.

I don't think you are giving OSU enough credit on offense to be honest. Yes McCord had to picks. The first was just a heck of a defensive play, by one of the best DBs in the country. The second, McCord was hit as he threw. OSU still had 270 yards passing and over 100 rushing against one of the best defenses in the country.  If there's a criticism, it's more balls should be thrown for Marvin to go make a play. Almost similar to what Henne used to do with Braylon. Just throw it up and let him go get it. He's gonna go and get it.

I also think OSU has been a little spoiled at QB the last decade. CJ, Fields, Haskins, Barrett, Braxton and Cardale? lol.. It's almost unheard of to have a run that good. Is McCord near that level? Probably not. That being said, it probably backs your statement a bit that the offense is a step back in the most important position.  About time you guys had to watch a less than elite qb. :)
FWIW, the ESPN QBR stats jive with this. McCord is a top decile (8th) Power 5 qb. The problem is, when looking at the prior five years Stroud and Fields landed 1,2 or 3 in the county every single year.

I was curious what tickets were selling for on stubhub.

Looks like you can get tickets as cheap as $40 in the upper sections behind the end one or in the corner.

Tickets at the 50-yard line in the 2nd section up,  are selling for $400 on the Iowa side and $600 on the Mich side, if I interpreted that  correctly.

I have a hunch these will get cheaper the closer we to get to game time, but I could be wrong.

A Cedar Rapids bar is putting more faith in the Iowa offense than the majority of college football this season.

X-Golf, an indoor golf simulation bar, is rolling out a promotion that is as Big Ten as it gets: free beer from kickoff of the Big Ten Championship until Iowa scores against Michigan. That score can, for what it's worth, come from the offense or defense. X-Golf can swing it, probably, but it's an interesting marketing tactic for the 124th-ranked offense in the country.

The last time Michigan (12-0, 9-0 Big Ten) played Iowa in a Big Ten championship game, it took until 1:26 left in the first quarter for Iowa to put points on the board with a Caleb Shudak field goal. Iowa, which lost that game 42-3, is hoping for earlier success this season.

When I went to FSU @ Pitt a few weeks ago, I didn't like the fact the only way you could buy a single game ticket from Pitt was electronically. I don't always trust the electronics.

Big Ten Commissioner and Player Safety and Anti-Cheaterz Commissar Petitti was nowhere at the trophy presentation.  Zak Zinter had to plow through a crowed on the stage to find the little twerp and take the trophy.  Not a peep was uttered by Petitti.  Coach Harbaugh refused to be on the stage with him.
