Let it ride?

Will the real Iowa please stand up. :)

As for Purdue? They are not Rutgers. 31 points is a lot. PSU is currently ranked 12th with a fairly new qb. Iowa is ranked 14th with a Sr qb.
Would you give up 31 points? Even if you think they only score 10-13?
I don't give up that many points. But as long as it's not against the Hawks, sometimes I'll take that many.

You have bigger cajones than I'd have.

We have won up there exactly four times in my lifetime and I'm 54. And I doubt we've covered in most of the losses.

Obviously I hope that you're correct on all counts.

Iowa wins in Ann Arbor since 1965.....1981, 1990, 2002, 2010. Am I missing any?

Only 5 times since 1902 have the Hawkeyes won in Ann Arbor.

I used Hawks in a 3 game 6 pt teaser when they opened at 4 1/2.

Hawks +10 1/2
Purdue + 31 1/2
Baylor + 8.5

My best bet of the week is Purdue. Opened at 24 1/2 and has already 27 1/2. I used it in the teaser above but I put an individual bet as well when it got to 27 1/2.

Penn St coming off huge win. Purdue looked bad. Public will overreact. Plus Penn St has Iowa, Mich, MSU looming in their next 3.

That Michigan State +20 line at OSU is also intriguing. OSU has been playing lights out and I wonder if they are due to come back down to earth a bit. MSU is still a decent team with an experienced QB and some talent and might play OSU tough in this one.

I saw that also. I'm holding off on OSU.
They looked like they could have beaten anyone last week. But MSU isn't Nebraska.
As of now though, OSU looks to be the most refined.
That's a tough call.
On the other end of the spectrum, Nebraska coming off a beat down might take it to Northwestern.
The problem I see there is Northwestern isn't scared and they haven't been for a long time.
Northwestern has the right mind set. They see everyone as their rivals. Every game is a trophy game. That's how Alabama looks at it too. Because every game is.
We have seen to many times with them, you can punch them in the mouth and they just keep coming. Keep fighting. They don't give a shit what the score board says or if it's the first play or the last play of the game.

Me too... Maybe if it was @ MSU I would lay those points, but I wouldn't lay those points at the shoe. I don't trust the MSU offense to score points.
