We have beaten Iowa the majority of the 15 or so most recent years. In how many of those wins did Vegas have us as the favorite? Maybe one. Literally.
What does that tell you? Only that Vegas knows Hawk fans always think their team is better than it really is and that's what the betting will reflect.
Shocker.
Really all it means is that generally more money comes down for the hawks in these bets, and that the money may tend to be slightly off when it comes to this series.
