Not to be that guy, but where the hell are you seeing Maryland -10? It's Maryland -3-3.5 pretty much across the board.

Is Deace picking ISU to win or to cover?

Not buying the Indiana stuff either.
Seriously, by the way, after listening to Dace's rant about the quality of the BTN, I have concluded that he is right. The one guy on there (Mike Hall) has very very high 'weenie quotient' and should not be anywhere near national TV.

I'm not surprised to see Deace pick ISU. I would expect nothing less.

Here is their lines history for the game, nothing remotely close to -10:

VegasInsider shows it opening at -4.5, and is -3 at all their current sources:

Maryland was favored at UCF by 10.5 last week. I'm guessing you are using last week's line.

He's seen enough of Iwa's offense and is not "hoping" for a change. He expects the status quo to remain.
All ISU needs to do is score 2 or 3 TDs' and they have a great shot at beating Iowa.
We on the other hand are expecting things to change on offense for iowa... this is why people are predicting 30+ or 40+ points out of the hawks.

I didn't listen to the picks, but did Deace actually pick ISU to win the game? or against the spread? I wouldn't be surprised if he took ISU to win, but that probably means we win by 30. This is a man who thinks Devon Gardner is the cream of the crop of Big Ten QB's. He does lead the stats in one significant category though, turnovers.
Has he seen Connor Cook play lately...even the Oregon game was impressive. He's pretty damn good right now.

Must be using a different Covers site
Hmm, interesting.
Watch out for an attack by deanvogs, though.
Are you questioning Jon?? How dare you.

He is picking ISU to cover 13.5 and can you blame him. He isn't picking them straight up.
