Iowa -10

Does anyone know if Iowa's QB is playing this game or is he still injured?

Stanzi will not play. Does not look like a big concern based off of what Vandenburg showed last week. Also Wegher will probably be back this week. I tailgated by Vandenburg's dad and he said vandenburg went 48/49 in practice one day and that he has beat out stanzi in almost every practice.

Well it depends what Minn team shows up being a minny homer i might put a small bet ont the gophers.

Oh and the game is @ IQ danstyk

Danstyk, I feel like we should roll Minnesota, but we have played less then stelar at home this year.I mean Minnesota didn't score an offensive TD against South Dakota State. It's really a tough call, but I would lean to Iowa.

Iowa 27
Minnesota- 13

If i'm correct I don't think the Hawkeyes had a bye week all year long. The last 2 games had to be especially draining. Iowa was favored by more than 7 points 4 times this year going 1-3 ATS with the lone cover coming in that incredible 4th quarter collapse by IU. I realize the Gophers have looked weak and inconsistant at times this year but I believe the 55-0 ass whipping applied to them last year should provide incentive to give a good effort for this one. Iowa has played like champs this year and after the 2 straight losses they finish the regular season with a win. The Golden Gophs cover the 10.5. GLTA                                    

 All are valid points. One thing I would like to point out is the 1-3 ATS on spreads 7 or over. If you just drop that number go 6 or over, we're 3-3.

First of all  WHAT AN PIC!!!!  

MINNY HERE +11.. IMAO IOWA ON A DOWNWARD TREND

This is all you need to know about Minn and this game...

Minn barely beat South Dakota State 16 - 13 without scoring an offensive TD...

Iowa needs a big win to stay in the BCS picture, and will come up with a big effort

MINN has no offensive line and Iowa will be making big plays in the MINN backfield all day long. This one could be as long as last years whipping of 55 - 0   but i will call it like this....

IOWA 42   MINN 14
