I too thought the N Iowa line seemed a bit low at 8.5
I thought maybe this is a schedule thing playing the 2nd road game separated by just two days, but they've been in the same situation three other times this season and have gone 2-0-1 ATS. Of course this is the highest they've been rated all season, so one could argue they were undervalued in those prior situations and earlier in the season.
I'm not really much help, but I do agree that it's a fishy line.
