Hawks open as a 3 point underdog. No O/U yet, although somewhere around 40/42 seems about right. 3 seems awfully low, though. Wisconsin's defense looked top-notch for most of the game last night.
 
Wisconsin is one of the most over rated teams in the country. Who have they beaten? Why are we pretending they are a top 10 team? They are WEAK! TAKE THE POINTS AND THE OVER AND DONT FORGET TO SHARE YOUR WINNINGS WITH ME

Not sure if serious or I am totally missing the sarcasm.

If serious, you must think both Michigan and Ohio State are both overrated as well, or haven't watched wisky play...
 
LSU is not bad and Wisky had something for them. If Iowa was playing well in their wins but they're not. Wisky looks good even when they lose. Iowa's attitude of what happens, happens isn't going to get me to throw my money away.
 
This game sets up like Mich St at Iowa in 2013 where Mich St had a really good defense, Iowa struggled to move the ball, Mich St threw for a bunch of yards as hawk run defense was pretty good. Hawks lost 26-14. Points will be hard to get.
 
Wisconsin's had two emotional games against top 5 teams, the last an overtime night game. Vegas thinks they come into Iowa City with a "meh" attitude and are drained. An 11:00am start doesn't help Wisky.

Whenever a spread seems "off", vegas knows something. If I were a bettin' man I'd be tempted to bet Iowa right now.

That's definitely my thought as well, although I have a sneaking suspicion this one may end up right on the money with a 3 point Wisconsin win. :/

Yep, maybe you can splain this to some of the dolts around here who think Sconnie is the #1 team in the country and should be 21 pt favorites.

We lost to NDSU and Northwestern at home. Wisconsin is going to embarrass us.

C'mon, we all know we play down to down teams and up to up teams in general. Will not be a shock to anyone, or at least should not be, if we come out and punch the Badgers in the mouth. I don't think these teams like each other.
 
Just to put it in perspective, did anyone think that the Northwestern team that scored 7 points against Illinois St. would run up 38 against Iowa and FIFTY FOUR against the Michigan State juggernaut? I didn't think so......

Iowa can beat Wisky but it will take our best game of the season to do so. Cut out the penalties and the turnovers!
 
We need a pass rush with different blitz pkg. to disrupt the red shirt freshman,if not were in for a long day.
