Welcome into another edition of the Wolverine.com podcast here on the wolverine.com.

I am Anthony Brew, of course, joined always by former Michigan Wolverine, Ryan Van Buren,

and today joined by a second former Michigan Wolverine member of the 26, well, he was 2013 through

2016. He can correct me on that. Jake Buttis here, a Michigan tight end. Welcome, Jake. Yep. Appreciate it. Appreciate you

having me on. Kind of feels like the 2016 revenge tour because now we got a chance to take care of Iowa,

which we fell short on. The boys already handled Ohio State, which you guys remember that,

that game from 2016. So like, I'm like all in on this team right now. Jake, you'll be in Indy, right? I'll be there, yeah, getting ready to, once we wrap up here, I'm going to pack up the car and head down. Cool. Ryan, what are your plans for the weekend? I'm sticking with my superstition. My two-month-old daughter, she's Victor versus Ohio State. So I will be holding her.

Mom's going to have to take a back seat. She will be in my lap for the entirety of the game and

holding on to my lucky charm there. Awesome. Well, hey, an eventful week, right? Not a whole lot going on.

Definitely didn't just beat Ohio State for the first time in 10 years. Definitely not in

Indianapolis right now for the Big Ten title game. Wow, what a huge week. Michigan comes in

this game as a 10 and a half point favorite over the Iowa Hawkeyes. Not a team you can

overlook though. We'll get into that here in a little bit. Ryan and I did two podcasts on Ohio State and the win, but Jake, you haven't spoken to our

audience on it yet.

Just your thoughts on the win over Ohio State and what this week has been like for you.

Yeah, I mean, it was a huge win.

And obviously, there's so much about it that it was a big win. Obviously, just a big win for the players. The game always means a lot when you're, when you're, you know, wearing the winged helmet. But, you know, for Coach Harvall, he's had a lot more success than people give him credit for. But here at Michigan, you're not defined by your wins against Indiana or Rutgers. You have to beat your rivals.

And, you know, we came so close yet so far from Michigan State early in the season.

It doesn't matter how close you get.

You either do or you don't.

So there was even more pressure going into this week.

Obviously, if we win that game, we put ourselves in this situation to go to the Big Ten championship.
