It’s here. The Big Ten Championship Game is now just hours away and nobody seems to care. Well, nobody except the players and staff inside the locker room dressed in black and gold. Seemingly not even those on the other sideline in their white, maize and blue.
Iowa is supposed to lose tonight. They’re supposed to be humiliated. It’s a familiar sight. We saw it two years ago when a Cade McNamara-led Michigan team trounced Iowa 42-3. We saw it earlier this season when the #10 Penn State Nittany Lions annihilated the Hawkeyes 31-0. It’s why the Wolverines are favored by more than any other team playing in a conference title game this weekend.
