Each team has a conference game on deck next week with the Hawkeyes having to make a trip to Happy Valley for a huge game against the Nittany Lions. Not only do they face that trip they are coming off a big game against in-state rival Iowa State Cyclones last week, a game in which they won 35 to 3. Not sold on their trigger man Ricky Stanzi and injuries to their OL have caused problems in their rushing attack and this is a big problem because they really do not have a consistent passing game. Iowa is 0-5 ATS at home versus non-conference opponents when laying less than twenty-two points and 0-3-1 ATS the week after facing the Cyclones. Arizona enters today’s game outgaining their first two opponents by almost 300 yards per game with RB Nic Grigsby rushing for 325 yards on 8.6 yards per carry so far this season. The Cats starting QB Matt Scott will be making his first start on the highway but with Grigsby and Antonin running the ball he should have the tools needed to capture a surprising win in Kinnick on Saturday. Teams coming off two SU wins but failing to cover the spread have not been given the respect they deserve as we see in this CFB System that tells us In Game 3, play ON a road underdog of 3½-13 points off 2 SU wins & ATS losses. These teams are 8-0 ATS and average covering the number by 17.9 points per game since 1991. We also want to Play ON a road underdog of 2-22½ points before 2 conference road games vs. an opponent off a non-conference road SU win. These road underdogs are a perfect 14-0 ATS and average covering the spread by 11.0 points per game. We will take the points here with the Cats as they surprise the Hawkeyes in Iowa on Saturday.
