    #9 iowa @ #24 arizona

    this game will be huge for both schools! this one reallly intrigues me. i liked the iowa side initially but sounds like sharps are on arizona. spread is so low its bait for either side. i got a feel for the big 10 in my region but anyone gonna play this one? opinions?

    Take Arizona +1/2 1st half. Can't go wrong with this selection. Iowa is a bit overrated.

    I have the same opinion as you. I will look more into this one.

    I like AZ here at home with strong QB play. Don't know much about AZ defense which is why I am still not sure on this game

    I like Arizona to get it done at home in a low scoring affair.

    Iowa held Nick Foles to 6/11 55 Yards passing last year...

    Nick Foles didn't start that game at Iowa last year.

    Scott was 4/14 for 50 YDS with an INT... AZ had 8 first downs the entire game and was 2/12 on third down conversions... pick your poison

    everyone seems to be on Arizona, from betting to the national media. I was on Arizona but now am scared with all the action on Arizona

    I don't think I've ever seen Iowa's offense and special teams operate with such efficiency as I have this season.

    The "sharps" and their cute, contrarian investment will fall short.

    It doesn't hurt to stay away from some games. Why put your hard earned cash on a flip at best? Save it for future Locks IMO

    Love how Iowa is still considered overrated... If they run the table and win the nat ship, it'll be a fluke, and they'll be lucky AND overrated! Thanks for valueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. Go hawks.

    Foles and Scott combined to go 10/31 for 41 yds and an INT in last year's 33-0 loss to Nebraska in the Holiday Bowl. Now I'm not saying that Adrian Claiborne is as good as Ndomukong Suh, but I am saying that Arizona has always been crushed by good defenses. Arizona's "high powered offense" only seems to work against terrible Pac-10 defenses like Oregon and USC. Its like ESPN said, its convenient how Foles only seemed to become one of the nation's best QBs *after* the Iowa game last year and it didn't translate at all vs. Nebraska.

    Arizona might not score a TD in this one.
