Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz says the margin of error will be slim when the Hawkeyes play Michigan in the Big Ten Championship game.
Iowa is a better than three touchdown underdog against a Wolverine team that will be in search of a third straight Big Ten title and third straight trip to the College Football Playoff. Seven years ago the Hawkeyes stunned Michigan 14-13 as a 20-point underdog.
Ferentz says the formula for an upset begins with limiting mistakes and taking advantage of some.
Iowa has thrived in close, low scoring games and posting an upset this week will likely require a similar path.
Ferentz says preparation for the championship game includes getting the players for an atmosphere that is unlike any road game.
Ferentz says Drew Stevens will hadle the kicking chores after being removed from Friday’s win at Nebraska.
