    I know this is the typical square answer but the bottom line is laying 10 on the road in the Big Ten is never ever a profitable idea.

    This is arguably the 2nd best Big10 team (i might even say best) against a J.V. team.

    Ohio State is probably the 3rd best team in the Big Ten but still lack a lot. They have Turner playing a lot of point guard which isn't really where he belongs. If Iowa can stay within 7 of MSU on the road why can't they stay within 10 of Ohio State at home?

    63-58 Buckeyes.

    If I recall correctly Iowa was down big in the first half and was out of this game by halftime. The final score was 7 as you state, but anyone watching that game knew it was much worse than that. I think they were down 16 with 3-4 min to go, and pulled a back door cover because msu had the game locked up. I know when gambling back door covers don't matter a cover is a cover and the final score is the only thing that counts but if you are taking Iowa please base it more than the 7 point defeat they had against msu. (I"m sure you have your reasons but I wouldn't be surpriesd if OSU blows them out). Much better games on the card tonight stay away from this one!!!

    The spread is now at 11, lot o points. And just for the record, PS is the worst (record) team in the B10. I am on UI. They played like BMF in Bloomington the other night. Not that IU is great, but Hawks played great.

    Don't do it. Anything over 4 on the road is always risky.

    I'm pretty sure Ohio State can cover, and Turner will destroy them single handedly. But betting on 11 points? I'll walk every time.

    Big ten is nothing like the past. Hasn't been the same since Coach Knight left.

    Good hit, wish Iowa didn't blow a 7 point lead with 4 minutes left.
