No. 3 Michigan win vs. Iowa away from etching name in history books

Third-ranked Michigan is one road win away from accomplishing something no Big Ten Conference team has pulled off since Bob Knight's Indiana club went unbeaten on its way to the 1976 national championship.

If the Wolverines prevail Thursday night at Iowa City, Iowa, they'll be the second team in conference history to go unbeaten on the road.

Michigan produced an 84-70 road win Friday night over then-No. 10 Illinois. It wasn't really that close, as Michigan (27-2, 17-1) led by 21 with 6:49 remaining.
