OHIO STATE -155
Iowa/Ohio St. OVER 124
Really like this matchup! Buckeyes have won 11 of 12 games since being beat by Iowa on the road back in Jan. That was AT Iowa, but this is a nuetral site where I feel Ohio State is the better team. Iowa has won two straight in this series, but again both being at home. Get them out of their comfort zone at home and they are a different team when playing stellar competition as Ohio State is. Buckeyes shot 35% in their matchup earlier and I definetly see them shooting higher here with much more on the line.
Reason I like the OVER is simple......in the matchup earlier this season top scorer for Iowa Horner was 0-8 from the field with only 2 pts and one of the top scorers for OSU Sullinger played only 22 min with 8 pts and that game went under by 3. With this being a HUGE game I see both of those players, especially Horner, stepping up in this one as he will definetly NOT go 0-8 from the field. Throw in 10-15 pts for him and this one is going OVER.......feel both teams will try and run a little steering away from the predicted defensive play everyone expects. It'll be another close one, but OSU comes out on top with each team scoring atleast in the 60-70's.
GL!! RS
