Michigan and Iowa are playing live on Saturday and the game on ESPN will be streaming from the WatchESPN website and will be at the Carver-Hawkeye Arena for the NCAA matchup and comes after U of M won against Nebraska after another solid game from Nik Stauskas.
The Wolverines have been playing very well since the conference schedule opened up and the number 10 ranked team in the nation matches up with the number 17 team and they come into the game at 9-1 on the season and 17-5 overall and they are one of the Big Ten leaders and are looking to continue playing well on the road. The team has a road matchup with the Ohio State Buckeyes next and that is their only matchup against the team this season and they have won six of their last seven games, including good wins over Iowa and Michigan State and they won three straight games against ranked teams in Wisconsin, the Hawkeyes and the Spartans and now they play against Iowa again and then OSU before another big matchup against Wisconsin and then Michigan State again.
The team plays against Purdue, Minnesota, Illinois and Indiana to finish the season and they are one of the favorites in the Big Ten tournament this season and they have been playing well on offense, averaging over 75 points per game and they are shooting nearly 49 percent from the floor, ranked 16th in the nation this season. The Hawkeyes are coming off of a loss to Ohio State and they play Penn State next and they have been one of the best offensive teams in the nation, averaging over 80 points per game and they are ranked third in the nation in rebounds per game and this should be a tough matchup on both sides.
