We will see how Purdy handles AJ and Iowa’s D-line. With your offensive line, ouch. I hope they improved a lot during the off week.

Then unless our defense switches all our players with crap from Oklahoma State, Kansas or Baylor, I'm not really worried.
One of the biggest considerations that nobody has spoken of yet is this .... Purdy has yet to have prepped for Iowa's D. In contrast, Stanley has prepped for AND faced ISU's D 2 times already ... each time ending in hard-fought Ws.
Campbell has not yet fielded the same QB 2-times in a row versus the Hawks. This is Purdy's first shot ... and likely his best chance too.
Iowa won by 10 points last year when he was so inaccurate. I assume that you think Iowa will win by three touchdowns if he is significantly more accurate?
I thought Rutger's d-line and secondary both played quite physical...dumb, but physical.
And an average to decent team shouldn't have much trouble moving the ball vs UNI. Iowa had their way with UNI last year.
Well there you have it. Why even play the game? Numbnuts says Hawks aren't winning.
No, it doesn't...that poster just perfectly explained how Purdy's rating was inflated by playing weaker defenses and and was only mediocre vs average defenses.
IIRC, didn’t the hawks lose the entire starting DL? Epenenza is pretty good but what about the others? I am not convinced.

Surprising that it’s working out like that, but
Epenesa >> Hesse
Reiff/Nixon > Brinks/Reiff
Lattimore > or = to M. Nelson
C. Golston = (possibly >) A Nelson.
More penetration in the backfield with LBs that are ready to clean up quicker.
If we press your WRs I don t think there’s much of a chance of ISU hitting consistently deep. I doubt there will be much of a run game.
It is mind boggling how A guy so obsessed with Iowa, knows so little about Iowa.
Hey CyTwins, now known as Texan06, are you still going to run your mouth about Vegas thinks the clowns are going to win now that Iowa is favored? Somebody knows something to move a line from isu -4.5 to isu+1.5.
Yikes
All sites use the same lines. Just depends on when they open.
How much of the money coming in is on Iowa? Thats a better sign than % of bettors, isnt it?
Edit---I should have read the whole thread before asking. Thanks for the info!
Funny how silent CyTwins aka Texan06 has become. He found a way to post in this threat at 3:47am but has now run off and hid.
Why is that?
Keep going up! I am going to get rich on the money line! This game is the centerpiece of all parlays!
isu returns their entire OL and they still suck. Must be the poor coaching they are receiving. Count me as not being convinced.
Meh, the same people who incessantly talked about the preseason Vegas line of +3.5 now just argue it doesn't matter.
The reality is this fast changing spread is an indication that Vegas saw an exposed team a week ago in Ames vs UNI.
So why did the line go from isu -4.5 to now isu+2? I mean if everyone is so convinced the clowns are going to win wouldn’t the line go the other way?
Somebody knows something.
Do you really believe what you just posted? Money is the only thing that moves the line at this point.
Of course. That's how spreads work. Nobody believes in the ISU hype.
OddsShark had ISU as a 2.4 dog when the lines opened yesterday.
ESPN Fpi shifted from 59% ISU win probability 2 weeks ago to 58% Iowa.
Massey BCS now has Iowa as a 7 point favorite and 70% win probability.
Sagarin has Iowa as a 9 point favorite on a neutral field.
The Vegas money is just reacting to all the analytics.
Why don’t you post your betting tickets then. That way we will all know how rich you are going to get.
The betting public is wrong much more often than it is right. The movement is a reaction to Rutgers. This is going to be fun!
They know Iowa has looked pretty good the first two weeks and ISU went to 3 overtimes to beet UNI. Not that hard to figure out. Not sure why anyone would be surprised that the line has moved from its preseason position.
Surely you're not that dense?
Vegas money is only one indicator.
Massey, Sagarin and ESPN FPI all have Iowa favored. There are literally no remaining industry leading predictive models forecasting an ISU win.
Isn’t that always the case?! The backup is always better than the starter! LOL!!
Probably been stated, but with injuries at Safety, hope whoever is out there can hold their own. They will get tested.
Nope, none of that counts. Clown fans are awesome at telling us what counts and what doesn’t count just to change it once their piss poor arguments are proven invalid.
Just how clown fans roll.
So why won’t you talk about Vegas telling us the clowns are going to win? Is it because your bs doesn’t hold anymore?
This is a terrific opportunity! People forget how many starters that ISU has returning after playing in a strong bowl game last year. The early line was favoring the right team and imo, should have been a larger spread for ISU. This is a perfect setup.
Except at isu the starters get better from year to year unless they are on the OL and then UNI exposes their progress as a fraud.
Yikes.
