Hawkeye Recap Podcast 11-26-23: Michigan Football Review (1900-2022) and Player Profiles for Rob Houghtlin and Keith Duncan

27 minutes

Brion looks at this week's opponent in the Big Ten Championship game Michigan and the games played from 1900 through 2022. He doesn't go into too much detail on each game, but summarizes all 63 games. Iowa is 15-44-4 all-time (27%).

Hayden Fry was 4-11-1 all time (28%), with big wins in 1981, 1984, 1985, and 1990. Kirk Ferentz is 7-8 (47%), but lost 42-3 two years ago to Michigan in the Big Ten Championship. He won 3 in a row from 2009 to 2011.

For blowout games in the series, Michigan crushed Iowa 107-0 in 1902, and also won 50-0 in 1901, 51-6 in 1969, 55-0 in 1970 and 63-7 in 1971. Iowa won 26-0 in 1984 and 34-9 in 2002.

Former Iowa head coach Forest Evashevski was a QB for Michigan from 1938 to 1940, and was on the 1939 team that beat Iowa and Nile Kinnick 27-7, handing them their only loss of the season.

With this week's game-winning FG over Nebraska, I thought I'd highlight two Iowa kickers with game-winning FGs over Michigan. Rob Houghtlin's 29-yard FG is simply known as "the kick" in #1 Iowa's 12-10 win over #2 Michigan.

Keith Duncan's 33-yard FG against #2 Michigan in 2016 sealed a huge upset, given the trajectory of both teams coming into the contest.
