College Football Week 9 Odds, Picks & Prediction: Iowa vs. Northwestern

Iowa’s offense is a joke, and the Hawkeyes traditionally have been bad bets as double-digit favorites.

But I’m backing the Hawkeyes on principle, here. My system says we’re getting 4.5-points of line value to fade this wretched Northwestern team.

It’s difficult to envision how the Wildcats will score against Iowa’s top-ranked defense, especially since Northwestern can expect to start in horrible field position throughout courtesy of Iowa’s top-10 special teams unit.

The pick: Iowa -10.5
