Sharps like Michigan State with way line has moved.
I like Hawkeyes, as they have played better football up to this point.
Who you like? Thanks

UNDER. Both are running teams, that have no real talent to score points.

The strength of the Iowa team without a doubt is their defense. They come in giving up only 15 points a game and 3 of those games were against Wisconsin, Michigan, and Penn State...all pretty good teams that can move the ball. And two of those on the road and all three were wins. I don't know if they are getting the respect they deserve here. I think both coaches are really good and wouldn't really give a definitive edge to either one, the quarterback position is where I see a real advantage for Iowa. Stanzi should be able to exploit the Michigan State secondary and make big plays, especially downfield. MSU is giving up 235 yards a game through the air and Johnson-Koulianos and a veteran receiving core should be able to take advantage. Last I heard Keith Nichol was questionable. And Cousins has a great arm, but I think he still needs a bit more seasoning before we can call him a stud. Another reason I like Stanzi is his ability to put mistakes behind him (pick 6 on the first drive in the Michigan game) is a really important trait to have in a QB on the road in a hostile environment. Iowa is my play.
