    All in for the Great Pumpkin Saturday

    haven't been posting or playing much the past few weeks......going to roll the dice here and go all in for the season with my winnings....up big from the first few weeks and then some break even weeks....time to make a move.....going to be smiling or taking my ball and going home.....

    IOWA -230.........39Units to win 16.95Units.............I think MSU is ripe right now and I still have no idea other than Northworstern is Northworstern as to how they won that game last week and freeking covered to boot....:dunno: . I can't remember the last time Iowa lost 2 straight games at home and they are still in the big10 race and can grab a share of the title by winning out. I really have never been a ricky schroder stanzi fan and hate backing him honestly, but i like the spot today. Pressure is building on MSU and they are in unfamiliar territory in terms of being the front runner, IMO. All the pressure is on MSU here (Just my opinion) and I expect a really solid effort from Iowa today. It took a fake punt, botched PAT, missed FG and an unreal clock/use of timeouts gaffe at the end of the game to leave with a 1 point win. MSU doesn't have the O-line that Wisconsin does and Cousins IMO is prone to making mistakes when pressured. Also like the fact that Iowa converts almost 53% of their 3rd downs on Offense. Go HAWKS......:beerbang:


    IOWA +1/2 & CMU -4 1/2.........6.5Units

    GL to everyone!

      Well I hope you win for obvious reasons FF. Stanzi has been excellent this year, #2 in the nation in passing efficiency with 16 td's to 2 int's. He had the best game of his career last week imo, and you already mentioned all of the mistakes last week.

      In games against Arizona/Wisconsin, we have 2 blocked extra points, allowed a kickoff return, pick six (catchable ball), punt block for a td, fake punt in the middle of the fourth, and the Les Miles school of clock management performed at its finest.

      Ferentz initial comments after the game were that he meant to use the timeout, which is absolute BS, but later admitted the timeout was probably a bad idea, and there's no probably about that. Clayborne was crying through his post game interview, so fans and players took the loss very hard.

      The line is obviously wanting the MSU money, but I wouldn't say the pressure is off of Iowa. Iowa fans thought this was 'the year' and will probably be jumping off cliffs with a loss, even if to the #5 team in the country. MSU is living a lie, somewhat like Iowa last year, and are the product of a nice schedule. Dantonio reinstates CL Rucker for the game, superb zero tolerance punishment, but that's neither here nor there.

      Im "hoping" for an Iowa win and will probably back them simply on the line, but they will need to jump ahead early imo. DC Parker is finally back, been missing since the Week 4, and perhaps that will improve our subpar LB and CB unit, and subpar to be nice. Wouldn't be surprised to see MSU come out in 4 and 5 wide quite a bit today since Wisconsin did it so well, should be a fun game. GL
