Over/Under for season wins. This really concerns me. Vegas seems to be begging people to pick the over for Iowa.
Last year I looked at Oklahoma's Over/Under (at 10 I believe) and thought it would be a no brainer to bet Oklahoma - then a monumental number of injuries struck the Oklahoma team and they finished at 7 wins.
Vegas doesn't put out lines that will routinely lose them money, and Iowa's line makes me wonder what they know that I don't. With Iowa's favorable schedule and large number of returning starters, you would think Vegas would peg Iowa for 9 wins preseason....I know that .5 doesn't seem like that big of a difference, but in the gambling world, there is a HUGE difference between 8.5 and 9.
