Hmm. As near as I can tell, Michigan is about the 15th best team in the country (I am a Michigan fan, but I think I've got that about right). Playing Michigan, therefore, is a true test. Ohio State got Michigan at home, and barely beat them (both teams wanted the game equally badly--OSU was just a bit better when it counted). Iowa, on the other hand, came into the Big House and handed our Wolverines their collective [heads]. From the second half kickoff on, there was no doubt as to who was the better team.
As an impatial (well, mostly) observer, I've got to go with the Hawkeyes.

Michigan was 9th in the country until they played OSU, now they are 15th.
One simple fact, very simple. OSU is undefeated. Period.
Any other comparisons ie Iowa State etc., have no footing to build your foundation upon. They LOST, period.
Iowa should consider themselves lucky they did not schedule The Ohio State University Buckeyes this year. For if they had, their fate would have resembled the history of the series between the two schools....Iowa would have lost.
I sure am glad that Ohio State did not schedule Iowa State this year, whew!, man, we sure are lucky!
Oh and by the way, OSU BEAT MICHIGAN in the BIG HOUSE in the first year under Coach Tressel. OSU is now 2-0 versus Michigan.
Things are a lot easier when your team wins ALL of it's games.
GO BUCKS!
