I bet this changes during the week
 

I thought it would be around 17, but 13 is because the Hawks have
lost two in a row and really haven't blown out too many teams lately.

I do not know if I would take the points.
 

Jesus, just 13? It should be at least three times that.
 

Lay the points. Our offense can't score against South Dakota, let alone Iowa's D. I would have said something like 17-20.
 

Iowa pointspread

I would have guessed 23 to start. This game will not be fun to watch. Anyone know of the Iowa Hawkeye chat link?
Be fun to see what the good old Iowans are saying about the upcoming game.!

Go Gophers!!!!
 


I would have guessed 9.5

Close home games with NIU; Ark. St; IU and a loss to NW.

It will be a 17-13 Hawkeye win.

Yeah, as much as we like to complain how our team plays down to the competition, Iowa seems to be similar in that regard too. I really have no stress watching games like these as I honestly go in fully expecting us to lose. If we win it is that much sweeter. I have alot more stress watching games where its more evenly matched (Illinois, MSU, NW) or where we are supposed to win (Syracuse, Air Force, SDSU, etc.).

Actually, I think our offense would probably do pretty well against South Dakota.

Iowa has been pretty mediocre-to-bad at home this year. I think there is a lot of cautious optimism after seeing what the freshman QB Vandenberg brought to the table against OSU. But I don't think a great percentage of Iowa fans are predicting a blowout. We've watched way too many nailbiters to get over confident!
 



I'm just assuming there's another 55-nil asskicking coming our way. That way any surprises will be good ones.

Well if you think it's that solid you can try www.bodog.com. Unless your heading over to Reno. The Grand Sierra has a very nice sportsbook. If you're just going as far as Stateline, Mont Bleu has a nice Sportsbook and Harveys book is non-smoking.
 

Their D-line against our O-Line. Their O-line against our D-line. You won't find too many bigger advantages in any sport. We can't get a pass rush on anyone and we can't stop anyone. Iowa has beasts on both sides. I do not feel things will go well at all. I'm hoping for a Gray miracle.
