I'll make the line Iowa minus 13 and I think I would take NW and the points.

 

[IowaCityLit]

NW will be desperate and feisty. Expect them to play physical. Probably an ugly game. Hawks just need to win.

How about Iowa -11.5?

 

[DukeSlater]

Iowa has a 99.9 percent chance to win, IMHO . . . by at least 25 points. I'll take it.

BTW: Purdue just finished escaping an Oregon upset @ West Lafayette, winning by four. A week from today, about 15,000 Iowa fans are going to see the Hawkeyes beat Purdue in person. The rest of us will settle for enjoying the revenge victory from afar. It will be Iowa's 20th win of the season against five losses, not bad for a roster filled with guys from Drake.

"Desperate and feisty" ain't gonna be nearly enough for a horrible NW bunch. They didn't lose by 40 @ Illinois because they weren't desperate and feisty. They lost by that margin because Illinois is good and NW is not. More of the same coming to Iowa City.

Hawks -12.5 as of 6:30 PM Saturday

Did you pick Iowa women to beat Minnesota also?

Hope your crystal ball is accurate.

Why does that make it a "trap" game?

Why does that make it a "trap" game?

Every game a team is favored in s a 'trap' game before it is play. It becomes a normal game if the team wins, and stays a 'trap' game if they lose.
