Iowa/Northwestern line at 8.5?

[CyTwins]

And as terrible as NW is, they aren't even close to being the worst team in that conference. Woof

Rutgers is a 7.5 dog at home to Liberty today...

 

[CYEATHAWK]

I hope Northwestern comes out on fire.

I do think Bowser is back today.

Should be a barn burner with a super huge energized crowd. Chicago is like a second home for the hoks.

Honestly, what the heck is wrong with NW? They sucked at the beginning of the year last year and then sorta right the ship. This year they are just plain garbage. When I talk about the B10 west sucking, usually NW is not one of the bad teams. Looks like the Gophers have taken NW's place as that team that is good enough to beat all the garbage teams and possibly upset one of the better ones.

Don't kid yourself.... the Gophers are garbage too.

There's one good team in the B1G West, Wisconsin. One average team in Iowa.... and the rest are just garbage.

I’m gonna parlay the Hawks and the over. Sometimes they surprise.

I expect the Gophers to beat Iowa this year. They have played a really easy schedule so far, but they have been pretty solid since the first game of the year. Time will tell. Looks like today is the end of the gravy train, but they will most likely be 8-0, and playing with a lot of confidence when they come to Iowa City.

A loss today for Iowa would be a complete disaster.

This would require Iowa to score more than 8.5 points

It was needed though, so the Big Ten could kill it in that New York City market.

Isn't liberty's football team brand new this year or something.

 

[CoKane]

They might not even combine for 8 points today

Gameday was just guffawing openly about the ToE/NW game.

General jist was, why even bother picking this one. I think the general consensus was 13-3, one way or the other.

put 1k on iowa

Kirk doesn’t sound all too confident in the capability of his receivers in that pre-game interview.....

First full season into FBS. I think they weren’t eligible for a bowl game last year.

 

[cdface]

was just listening to the pregame on the radio. Wieting is also out today, among the other known injuries. and IIRC, Oliver Martin isn't even on the depth chart anymore? if NW can stop them on the ground, they have a puncher's chance at winning.

Nate the great looking like a deeer in headlights on that sack

[cyrocksmypants]

Stanley hurt? Could be the best thing that happened to this Iowa offense.

 

[inCyteful]

Oh Oh, Stanley's got a bad wheel. Will be interesting to see how BF adjusts if he is no longer mobile.
