Premium Pick

Another big game in the Big Ten with Bowl implications. Minnesota is a good team, but their run game here should be silenced a bit in the Iowa home field. Iowa is 11-2 ATS against Minnesota since 1992, and you have to like them here. Iowa is coming off the huge win at Wisconsin after losing the heartbreaker to Northwestern. This will be a huge game the Hawkeyes. This gets Iowa into a tie with the Gophers, one which they would win in a H2H. As a home favorite over the past two seasons, the Hawkeyes have won 12 of 15 ATS! Conference road teams scoring 34+ PPG now facing a good defensive team (16-21 PPG) are only 15-43 ATS over the last 10 seasons as defense beats offense more often than not. Two stars on the Hawkeyes here.

2 units on Iowa -4.5 (-110) (risk 2 to return 3.82)
