Iowa vs Iowa State -4 O/U 157
I love this game. Such a great rivalry early in the season. What I have noticed out of Iowa this year is that they really have seemed to grow up. Senior Jordan Bohannon is back and a leader on this team. Jaybo was such a clutch performer from last year. Joe Wieskamp is nailing tre’s at 42% and Luka Garza is a force inside. Iowa State is a good team as well beating Seton Hall on Thursday after losing to them only 10 days beforehand. What we don’t see in that victory is that Seton Hall lost their star forward Sandro Mamukelashvili 5 minute’s into that game and it affected the outcome. This spread is a bit inflated due to that win. Iowa State was very good last year but their loss of Marial Shayok is very hard to replace. I know that they have a good home court advantage but there should also be some Iowa fans showing up here in this caliber of a rivalry. I have Iowa the better team right now. They rank 4th on kenpom in offensive efficiency and Iowa State ranks 27th. The Cyclone’s also struggle at shooting the 3 which is something that they need this game facing Iowa’s height inside.
