Michigan's QB battle among many in Big Ten that will ramp up this fall

Falls flat in Citrus Bowl Hill was 7-for-18 passing for 56 yards and two interceptions during Monday's 35-0 defeat to Tennessee. He also had seven rushes for -20 yards.

Impact Hill tossed two picks during Monday's loss to Tennesse before being replaced by Marco Lainez in the contest. The 6-foot-3 sophomore shut the doors on a rough 2023 season, ending with 1,152 yards (122-of-251), five touchdowns and eight picks. Hill, who started in place of the injured Cade McNamara in 2023, is unlikely to be the starter with the Hawkeyes next season.

Another unimpressive showing Week 8 Hill completed 10 of 28 passes for 116 yards and one interception during Saturday's 12-10 loss versus Minnesota. He also had eight rushes for -22 yards with one touchdown.

Impact Hill set a season high in passing yards despite logging his second-lowest completion percentage (35.7) since taking over as the Hawkeyes' starting quarterback. The sophomore transfer did log his first rushing touchdown of the season, though he did cough up two fumbles before throwing a game-sealing interception on Iowa's final drive. Hill has now completed 36.7 percent of his passes for 378 yards and two touchdowns to three interceptions across the last four games. His poor performances combined with Iowa's unserious offense make him completely unattractive in fantasy.
