Analyzing Michigan's win over Iowa

Breaking down the Michigan football team's 10-3 win over No. 14 Iowa, we look at two game balls, four lasting thoughts from the game and answer seven user questions from listeners.

Both of our game balls went to the defense, as we handed them out to two disruptive pass-rushers who had maybe the best games of their careers. We also acknowledge runners-up on the defensive line, the secondary, and linebacking corps.

Our lasting takes included two thoughts on Michigan's stellar defense and two on the Wolverines' offense. We note at how the process of week-to-week improvement and development are working on Michigan's defense, and how the opposite seems to be true for its offense. We also discuss the Wolverines' lack of offensive identity, and what could have been a breakthrough game for Michigan's defense.

Finally, we answer questions tackling the Wolverines' quarterback situation, why the offense seems a more horizontal than expected, offensive coordinator Josh Gattis' tenure in Ann Arbor so far, fans' aspirations to move on quickly from quarterbacks and what Michigan can do to show progress against Illinois.
