The upcoming Big Ten Championship Game is generating excitement as Michigan prepares to face Iowa in Indianapolis this Saturday. With Michigan boasting an impressive 12-0 record, they enter as the favorites, but Iowa, with a strong 10-2 finish, is not to be underestimated.
One intriguing aspect of this matchup is the presence of Iowa quarterback Cade McNamara, a former Michigan player who unfortunately can’t participate due to a torn ACL suffered in September. However, he’s not letting that setback dampen his spirits. In fact, McNamara is actively involved in helping his team prepare for the game against his former program.
In a recent statement, McNamara expressed his enthusiasm for assisting the Hawkeyes in their preparations, emphasizing that he’s not only focused on getting the new starting quarterback, Deacon Hill, ready but also sharing his in-depth knowledge about “that other team.” He’s offering insights from both a defensive and offensive perspective, providing valuable input to his teammates.
Interesting interview from McNamara. I think everything he says is fine, but the fact that he won’t even say Michigan. He says that other team. 🧐 pic.twitter.com/1PcKvL8inN
