Andrew Sprague misses second straight game for Michigan against Iowa

Michigan's starting right tackle Andrew Sprague will miss his second consecutive game as the Wolverines face No. 17 Iowa in their Big Ten opener at Michigan Stadium on September 26. Sprague was a late scratch in the prior game against UTEP, leading to adjustments along the offensive line. Michigan head coach Kyle Whittingham indicated that Sprague could be sidelined for several weeks, while right guard Brady Norton suggested Sprague chose to sit out to ensure his long-term health. Other key players, edge Dom Nichols and cornerback Zeke Berry, are expected to participate after missing the last game.
