Not sure I'd touch this game. I could see almost anything happening, but I'm afraid to think of what might happen. If I had to bet, I'd take MSU. Don't like the matchup.

I will have to agree. MSU has a tougher strength of schedule to get the same win-loss results, according to Sagarins. Not by a lot, mind you...32 to 50 for Iowa. But, SMU had a 2-4 record against top 30 teams, while Iowa was 0-1. SMU played 6 top 30 teams and Iowa played 1. I am assuming the top 30 teams are Sagarin ranking.

SMU is ranked 8 in Sagarin, and Iowa is rated 11th.
