Iowa State Cyclones vs. Iowa Hawkeyes Betting Preview and Prediction<\/h2>\n

Where:<\/strong> Kinnick Stadium, Iowa City<\/p>\n

When: <\/strong>Saturday, September 13, 3:30 PM ET<\/p>\n

Line:<\/strong> Iowa State Cyclones (+11<\/strong>) at Iowa Hawkeyes (-11)<\/strong>\u00a0– \u00a0view all NCAA Football lines<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Betting on the Iowa State Cyclones<\/h3>\n

[sc:NCAA240banner ]A 0-2 start is obviously, not how the Cyclones would like to open their season. If they are to prevent going down 0-3 on Saturday, they\u2019ll have to defend way tougher than in any of their first two losses, wherein they surrendered unacceptable averages of 33 PPG and 488.5 total yards per game (221.5 against the pass and 267 against the rush) to the North Dakota Bison and Kansas State Wildcats, respectively.<\/p>\n

Against the Wildcats, Iowa State\u2019s nondescript defense reared its ugly head late in the game, allowing Kansas State quarterback Jake Waters to run for a game-winning touchdown to lead his team to a come-from-behind 32-28 victory.<\/p>\n

Iowa State\u2019s offense fared better last week, particularly because of wide receiver\u2019s Jarvis West\u2019s uncanny versatility; West received for 75 yards with a touchdown, returned a punt for an 82-yard TD, and even had a 29-yard TD pass to Allen Lazard. The do-it-all stud is a bright spot in an Iowa State team that finished 104th<\/sup> in the FBS last season in scoring with an offense that produced just 14.0 PPG.<\/p>\n

Since 2004, the Cyclones are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 meetings with Iowa. The Cyclones will hit the road for the first time this season versus Iowa. The over is 5-1 in their last six road games overall, during which they allowed opponents to score a whopping average of 44.5 PPG.<\/p>\n

Betting on the Iowa Hawkeyes<\/h3>\n

\"Jake<\/p>\n

Just like in their first game, the Hawkeyes’ 17-13 win over the Ball State Cardinals in Week 2 was too close for comfort. Iowa failed to cover the double-digit point spread in each of their first two outings, including their match against Ball State, which came to Kinnick Stadium as a 17-point road underdog.<\/p>\n

Against the Northern Iowa Panthers a week before, the Hawkeyes had to play all out the entire game, as the Panthers hung tough until the end before taking a 31-23 loss at the hands of the home team.<\/p>\n

The defense that lost six starters over the offseason remained generally dependable. It was especially harsh against the run early this season, allowing a total of just 115 yards on the ground in the first two games. But while the rushing defense was consistent thus far, the same can\u2019t be said about the Hawkeyes\u2019 passing defense. Iowa showed susceptibility against the pass when they gave up 380 passing yards to the Panthers in Week 1 before limiting the Cardinals to a measly 129-passing-yard effort the following game.<\/p>\n

If the game against Ball State was any indicator, though, the Hawkeyes\u2019 defense should have sorted out any residual chinks in their defense coming into the game versus Iowa State. Against the Cardinals, Iowa never allowed them to set foot on the red zone.<\/p>\n

Quarterback Jake Rudock will be the player to watch for the Iowa against the Cyclones. The junior is coming off a 322-passing-yard performance with two TDs against Ball State.<\/p>\n

Since last season, the Hawkeyes are 4-1 in their last five games as the home team.<\/p>\n
