Week 3 College Football Predictions Iowa State vs Iowa: The Cyclones have started their year off on the right track 2-0 coming off a big win last week to Kent State, 48-28. Last year the Cyclones did not score a TD and won, that will not happen against the offensive machine that is being lead by Stanzi, however the cyclones can still win, but I would be surprised if they did. Both of these teams are off to a good start and averaging over 40 points per game. Iowa State has covered 9 of last 10 in series, and Cyclones are getting big plays out of QBs . The Oddsmakers at Bodoglife.com currently have Iowa -13.5 favorites to Iowa State heading into this matchup with the total at 48 points.
The Hawkeyes are also off to a 2-0 start to the season but they haven't really played anyone. They beat Maine and last week Florida International 42-0. QB Ricky Stanzi threw three touchdowns passes in his first start, and RB Shonn Greene had a monster day 130 yards rushing. Iowa has something called revenge in mind from last year, I think that will play a factor for an Iowa win as well. Iowa head coach Ferentz moved Stanzi into the starting QB spot against FIU, and he responded with 8 of 10 passing and 3 TD's. Iowa State stunned the Hawkeyes 15-13 as 17-point home dogs. I do think Iowa should win this won, I don't think Stanzi is going to turn the ball over like Jake. College Football Predictions: Iowa has a better running game but ISU has the receivers - Iowa has a better "D" but ISU has forced more turnovers. This game doesn't always turn out the way it should. Iowa want huge revenge in this game today so look for them to get the job done. Hawkeyes are 36-16 ATS in their last 52 home games. Hawkeyes are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.
