Iowa +3

[No coincidences]

Call me crazy, but I like this play.

I know OSU is the superior team, but the home team is getting points at Kinnick. I think that's always worth considering.

[Holdin Aces]

I agree, I like this as well. I can see Iowa being in a few teases for me as well.

Just depends on how "defeated" Iowa is after last week's debacle.

Had they beaten NW, I would've pounded the piss out of them here -- even though it would've been a Pick situation vs. +3.

still like the hawkeyes

It'd be nice if this game was at night.

This is a tough one. They showed up against Mich St...No shame in their loss to Whisky. Bad coaching that day. Plus they showed some heart last yr in the shoe, took it to overtime.

But Iowa has a way of letting weak teams hang around and their offense isn't exactly explosive the way it needs to be against tough teams. I can see a 37-24 in favor of Ohio St. kind of game. No play for me.

I said the same thing about the Mich St. game tho', so what do I know. For being a homer I don't have a lot of faith.

Noooooo you're not crazy, just a moron if you throw your money away on a team that got out played by what should be an Ivy League school. Talk about a reach. Go Bucks ... O --- H --- I --- O

The Buckeyes's won't make the same mistake they made in Madison...they will come focused and ready to play this one start to finish.

[serc]

Buckeyes for me, as well. First half bet on Ohio State is even more charming

[og4667]

tough call, iowa as a home dog does look good though especially in a bouce back situation

[Lion4Life]

Like Iowa to keep it close for a while but OSU pulls away late.

[Pickma$ter]

O-State will be to much on both sides of the ball for Iowa. Iowa Offensive woes and not winning the turnover battles shed the light on Iowa as a decent team. They r not in the same caliber as O-State. Easy one her boys..sharps are drooling on this line

I like Iowa in this one as well.

37 points at Kinnick? If the Hawks give up that much, they're really as bad/overrated as some fear.

tOSU doesn't run the spread. I still think, even with the injuries Iowa has sustained at LB, they can keep the Bucknuts relatively bottled up defensively.

If sharps are drooling over the Buckeyes, why was the first move in the line from +3 (-114) to +2.5 (+109) at Pinny? That tells me early sharp money was definitely on Iowa.

Sounds like public money

Sounds like public money

Pubes won't be betting on Iowa, and they sure as hell aren't betting on Iowa a week ahead of time.

At Sportsbook.com, 85% of the public is on the Buckeyes.

OSU, dont let get fooled. Iowa is done.

I agree, the old reverse line trick gets people all the time ....overthinking the numbers, classic vegas here lol!

[dngf]

Iowa seems to have a tendency to play to the level of their competition, but I am not sure they can rise to the level of OSU this week.

[Ohi0]

Mark my words my friends OSU rolls here, they will have a hard time containing pryor and his mobility as they did early on against Denard Robinson. OSU 27 Iowa 17 mark my words. But BOL to everyone.

[HoulihansTX]

I would consider how many times Iowa has been a home dog under Kirk Frentzs, and how they have responded in those situations.


If they have been profitable under that role, then Go Hawkeyes.

[The Bet Master]

I don't see my Buckeyes losing this one.

[fults400]

I love osu first half. Can easily see them being up 10 at the half then I think iowa will close in a little bit and make it a game.

Think Penn State '08.
