On Saturday, No. 17 Iowa upset No. 18 Michigan, winning 20-19 in Ann Arbor at Michigan Stadium. Iowa quarterback Hank Brown threw the game-winning touchdown pass with just two seconds left, catching Michigan off guard as they were penalized for unnecessary roughness on a third down play near midfield. The victory marked Iowa's first win over Michigan since 2016 and came after a controversial Week 1 incident where Michigan benefited from an extra second awarded in their win against Western Michigan. With this upset, Iowa improved to 4-0, while Michigan fell to 3-1 in the Big Ten season opener.
