I enjoyed the ANF boys breaking down this game on their pod. One of them has Iowa winning 16-13 and the other had them losing by the same score.
They also had the same thought I did regarding how to attack Mich’s defense….play a lot of 12 and run right at them and then use play action to hit TE seam and drag routes. Occasionally test them over the top with Diaz to keep them honest.
One thing I also thought about was because Mich typically plays man, and with Hank’s speed, some timely play action delayed draws may pay dividends for us too.
But listening to those guys, I had no idea how bad Underwood was at pre-snap reads and locking on to his main option. I think we can get a couple picks in this game. Just have to weather the early onslaught we know is coming.
