My odds and picks for all of Iowa's games in 2014 at this point.

[iowajerms]

Sat. Aug. 30 - Home vs Northern Iowa - UNI has struggled the past few years and I don't see them bouncing back right away.
MY ODDS: Iowa -27.5
MY PICK: Iowa easily

Sat. Sept. 6 - Home vs Ball State - Ball State might be headaches at first, but Iowa will take control late in the 1st half and dominate the 2nd. Ball State is a good MAC team.
MY ODDS: Iowa -13.5
MY PICK: Iowa, score closer than actual game

Sat. Sept. 13 - Home vs Iowa State - For the Cy-Hawk Trophy. ISU has a new OC and could give Iowa's defense a struggle. Iowa's receivers are not that great either. But Iowa has a good QB and RB and a very experienced OL. Iowa will hold on for the win.
MY ODDS: Iowa -2.5
MY PICK: Iowa in a close one, possibly comeback

Sat. Sept. 20 - Away vs Pittsburgh - I think will be better than last season. They went 7-6 last season with a passing offense and might take some advantage of Iowa's early developing defense. But Iowa will be too strong.
MY ODDS: Iowa -9.5
MY PICK: Iowa

Sat. Sept 27 - Away vs Purdue - Purdue is very awful and this game should not even be close, even if Iowa's back ups were playing.
MY ODDS: Iowa -21
MY ODDS: Iowa in a blowout

Sat. Oct 11 - Home vs Indiana - Indiana is a passing team and the secondary for Iowa is what needs to develop. Indiana has no defense either and Iowa's offense should be strong. Indiana will show Iowa's weakness on defense and I can see an upset in this one, but I would still favor Iowa.
MY ODDS: Iowa -2.5
MY PICK: Indiana with the upset

Sat. Oct 18 - Away vs Maryland - Maryland is another passing game, but I don't think Iowa will struggle with it 2 weeks in a row. I actually think Iowa will dominate this game.
MY ODDS: Iowa -16.5
MY PICK: Iowa with a controlling game

Sat. Nov 1 - Home vs Northwestern - Northwestern is that thorn in Iowa's side. The question will be will they struggle again this season or be tough like a few years ago. I think they will be tougher. I think Iowa will be favored as they will have the more developed team and better record.
MY ODDS: Iowa -13.5
MY PICK: Iowa in a close one

Sat. Nov 8 - Away vs Minnesota - Jerry Kill may not be COTY, but he has given Minnesota a lot of positives. Beating Iowa at Minnesota has been one of them. I don't think it will happen this year as Iowa will be developed at this point and on a mission. Not a trap game either. Little piggy in Iowa City.
MY ODDS: Iowa -16.7
MY PICK: Iowa in a blowout

Sat. Nov 15 - Away vs Illinois - Trap game for Iowa and Iowa will struggle. Iowa will pull it out somehow in an embarrassing game.
MY ODDS: Iowa -20.5
MY PICK: Iowa, one of those wins where they should lose.

Sat. Nov 22 - Home vs Wisconsin - Possible GameDay location. I think both teams will have no more than 1 loss. I think the game will go as the odds go.
MY ODDS: Wisconsin -3
MY PICK: Wisconsin

Fri. Nov 28 - Home vs Nebraska - I think it will determing the 2nd place for the West. I think Iowa will be very developed and Iowa's offense will be very strong. I don't think it will be a domination, but I don't think it will be very close either.
MY ODDS: Nebraska -2.5
MY PICK: Iowa by 14-17 points

10-2 (6-2)
