I don't quite know what Kenpom is thinking regarding the Iowa game. Even if it's at home, Carver-Hawkeye Arena isn't exactly supposed to be the world's most intimidating place to play. And that's even if you ignore the fairly spectacular implosion of Iowa's team this year. (I think Anthony Tucker, he of the mononucleosis, public intox, and 1.55 GPA, is a Trojan horse sent in by Iowa's biggest rival, whoever that is.)
In short, Michigan would have to collapse to lose that game.
I've spent a fair amount of time wondering what you do in tOSU's situation. You have a very good coach, but he's shown a consistent inability to win on the big stage. And yet, if you fire him, what are the chances of landing someone who performs at the same level each year?
Maybe they really are content with just beating us each year.
