Iowa has a 15 game home winning streak dating back to 2000. The Hawks see the bleeding and will keep the wound fresh this weekend as OSU will drop their 3rd straight. Their running game was shut down last weekend and they will be going against one of the top in the nation. QB has been really inconsistent. Iowa QB Tate has been getting better and more comfortable every week. They have lost 3 RB to ACLs but I see Simmons really stepping up for the opportunity. (Transfer from Nebraska, had 2 TDs last week).It may come down to special teams and OSU has one of the best kickers in the nation. Iowa leads big 10 and 5th in nation in punt returns. I am slightly biased on this but wanted to give an Iowa side of things. They were a top 15 team and should have beat Michigan. The ASU game was just one of those games. Good luck with your picks, hope I've helped some.
I agree with you, don't touch it. Iowa City is a very difficult place to play. I expect Kinnick to be rocking. Iowa wants this game very badly after going to the shoe and playing like crap last year. Not to mention they have had 2 weeks to get ready. OSU just got done with a very physical Wisky team that plays basically the same style as the Hawks and I assume they are a little beat up this week. Ferentz is a pretty low key guy and the newspapers have been especially quiet these last 2 weeks. Big time disrespect being dogs at home. If you play anything play the UNDER.
Hey blue...hope you stayed off the game as the Hawkeyes just flat out dominated Ohio St!!!!! They're right back at the top of the Big 10 again. I want them to get respect but I like the fact that they don't. I'll keep taking those points at home!!! 16 in a row now. GO HAWKS!!
