Wisconsin Badgers at Iowa Hawkeyes Game Overview<br />
</h2>
<p>
The Badgers enter at 4-2 but their body of work has been a spectacle for many bettors. Most recently, the Badgers fell at #2 Ohio State in overtime where they were defeated 30-23 after the Buckeyes rallied for the win. Adding in wins against Michigan State and LSU, the Badgers have been one of this season’s sleeper teams according to general public perception.

Iowa enters at 5-2 but overall the Hawkeyes have been a bit of disappointment this season as they had heightened expectations after running the table last year in the regular season before falling in the Big 10 Championship to Michigan State in the final moments.

Wisconsin Badgers at Iowa Hawkeyes Prediction
Almost all have dived in on the Badgers spotting road points to the hosts Iowa. 93% have taken Wiscy against the spread and as a result, the market has moved by half of a point from the open. In Over/Under markets the Total Line has been stationery at 41.5. Comparing Iowa and Wisconsin, the Badgers had the lower projected ceiling of the two. Nevertheless, it has been Wisconsin who has been a the overachiever. The Badgers hit the ground running when they defeated LSU at Lambeau Field as a double-digit pooch, following these results up with a thrashing of Akron, slithering by Georgia State and a win against Michigan State. To follow this up, the Badgers lost by a mere touchdown at home against #4 Michigan and then they would chase this up with the bitter loss at Ohio State. These results have driven the assessment of Wisconsin through the ceiling and when they are spotting such “slim” points to a team that lost at home to North Dakota State, the market appears to be a steal. This offering is fool’s gold. Many Wisconsin-Iowa collisions have been settled by incremental margins and let us not forget North Dakota State was completely overlooked by the entire country when they traveled to Iowa City as they are a three-time defending FCS dynasty. Iowa typically has a very omnipresent home field advantage and in a rivalry game of this magnitude it would be foolish to pass on the points.
Free Pick:
Take Iowa +3.5
