T.M. Selection: Iowa.

I like Iowa to cover the spread in this game against Northwestern on Saturday. Iowa have lost 2 bad games in a row now and have really mucked up their season in just those 2 games. They went from being a top 10 team and leading their division in the conference to just out of the race in everything with those 2 losses. I still think they are a good team with a great defense and I expect that they will want to finish their year strong so I think they are going to bounce back in this one. Northwestern has looked really bad in their games this year so I think this is the perfect spot for Iowa to use this as a get right game. Northwestern hasn't put up more 15+ points in each of their last 2 games and they gave up 30+ points in both of those. I think they are really going to struggle against this defense and it is going to lead to turnovers that will dig them deep into a hole. I like Iowa to cover the spread here.

T.M. Prediction: 31-7 Iowa.
