But when I check on percentage websites, the percentages seem to be pretty even? (54%-46%) in favor of Iowa. Anyone have an explanation?

Its 51-49% Iowa now on the SBR odds board, so not going either way really.
Great "O" GT vs great "D" Iowa.
Will option confound Iowa like AF and Navy did?
Or is Iowa a stout "D", unlike Mizzery and Houston?
Will Iowa QB be effective after 2 month layoff? Will GT defense hold the Iowa run?
A top ACC team Clemson barely covered, but VT won big.
A top Big 10 team OSU covered well, Penn St barely covered.
Will be windy and a little chilly for Miami.
Tough call. Who shows up? Who is really motivated? You can only guess.

Iowa is Dogshit.
They will know what it means to get WRECKED tonight. I am ALL OVER GT plus the OVER.
GT 44 Iowa 17....and 10 of those 17 points come LATE in the game....

I don't think everybodies on Iowa, i see other sites who have over 60 percent on GT and that would certainly explain why the spreads gone up to -6 at a lot of places.

That is a pretty bold statement coming from a guy who can't win a wager to save his life. How much do yo have down on this game?

Look what happened to Mizzouri. You can't defend the tripple option. GT is well rested and the players are healed and are looking for a superb performance tonight on national TV to impress the pollsters for next's year run to #1.

Mizzouri is a Big 12 D whose O all run zone options from the shotgun 98 to 100% of the time. Houston D sucks PERIOD facing AF. You can defend the triple option with a big D line, strong LBs, which Iowa has and strong DBs which iowa has. Iowa is use to a QB under center and a FB and a RB they see it everyday in a pro style offense. Miami at the beginning of the year before Dline injuries had a D like Iowa and how did that work out for GT? Also offensively challenged teams like Vandy lit up the scoreboard on GTs D. Iowa needs this win because next year Iowa is going to be a force!

Georgia Tech has 10 times better athletes than Navy. Think of Navy as a Mustang and GT as a Ferrari. No one can defend GT's triple option assault. Iowa can't score enough points to catch up.

over 50.5 for me
the triple headed option is a beast.
GT lacks sufficiently in the defensive department.
lean GT with the points but havent played it yet

Maybe a pinto when they play a good D.
