THE KNOWLEDGE CHALLENGE

.

This week's CHALLENGE, of course, is to correctly predict the score of M-Iowa game. Last week, THE CHALLENGE did not appear due to fact the score was too easy to predict

.

out of the 10 people who emailed THE KNOWLEDGE before the game, 3 correctly stated that M will win by 22 points. Therefore, they are the winners of THE CHALLENGE, and it was not opened up to the public

.

yes

.

pointers to this week's game

  • Michigan will win
  • by double digit margin
  • Robinson will pass for many yards
  • Michigan's defense will have an OK day against the rush offense of Iowa
  • Iowa's defense will not

.

predict to be the POTW

.

yes

35-13 Michigan. Iowa gains 3 field goals and, after the 3rd-string walk-on center comes in  with Gardner, 2 safeties.

Michigan's offensive style requires more players that have greater interactions with the Higgs field.

They can't stop our offense, too much Fitz and Shaw and Flash Dilithium, then they load the box and after an Oh No or a long pass (or short pass turned into long gain), we get up 3 scores.  They can't keep running Coger at us, too much point spread, and game gets away from them.  Once again, we can't push it in from close to the goal line, our OL is still too much RR/eeeeeBarwis and not enough MANBALL, so another short chip-shot field goal too.

Like I said, 45-17.  Or 45-18, maybe Iowa goes for 2 on that last touchdown just cuz.  Onto Illinois at 8-1.

Starts out slow and ugly. 14-7 Michigan at the half. Michigan scores three unanswered in the 3rd; Iowa gets a garbage time TD.
