How to watch Michigan vs. Iowa: Live stream, TV channel, kickoff time

Michigan and Iowa meet in the rematch of last year’s Big Ten title game at noon on Saturday.

But unlike last December, when Michigan won 42-3 at Indianapolis, Saturday’s matchup will be played at Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City, a venue where the Wolverines have lost their last five games. They enter the Big Ten showdown with the best offense in the country but face the nation’s No. 1 defense, which has conceded just 23 points all season.

As strong as Iowa’s defense has been this season, their offense ranks a wide margin at the bottom of the Big Ten in goals scored and total yards. Michigan is looking to seek its first win in Iowa City since 2005.
