Iowa Vs. Michigan: 8 Classic Gridiron Clashes 4
Part I: The 1980s
Michigan seldom loses to Iowa.
Since 1900 the Hawkeye record stands at 11-40-4 against the Wolverines.
This is not good news if you are a Hawkeye or a Hawkeye fan heading into Wolverine territory for another showdown in Week 7.
Iowa won contests in 1900, 1924, 1958, 1962, 1981, 1984, 1985, 1990, 2002, 2003, and 2009.
Six of the eleven wins have been on the road––over half.
This is somewhat good news since Iowa will be playing Saturday in Ann Arbor.
During the rivalry, Iowa and Michigan also played for four ties––in 1929 (0-0); in 1957 (21-21); in 1963 (21-21) and in 1988 (17-17)––which marked the only tie with Michigan in a game played at Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City.
