Minnesota/Iowa

[Big Daddy]

Minnesota -6

2 teams going in opposite directions, Minnesota playing better each game after a slow start and Iowa not getting any better, maybe getting worse. Game is at Minnesota, one of the toughest places to play on that raised floor. Minnesota played at home Saturday and crushed Purdue 90-68. Purdue a much better team than Iowa. Minnesota should cruise to a double digit win tonight.

i think you may be right on this one but there is one thing that scares me about minnesota and that is stupidity. case in point, last week against ohio state. now i'm a big buckeye fan but they had no reason to beat minnesota. osu's tallest man on the court was 6'7" and minnesota is the land of giants with three guys over 6'10". what does minnesota do, they fire up 38 three pointers and lose by 5 or 7 or something. minnesota just got outcoached. i'm not saying steve alford is jim o'brien but he has had success with all his teams. i've seen alot of people on minnesota, hope they cover for you all but i'll lay off. good luck.

I know what you mean, Buckeye. That was a bad game plan against Ohio State. I hope they got that straightened out. They looked a whole lot better Saturday against Purdue.

Adding:

Purdue -6 -120

I don't normally like playing road favs in the Big 10, but I think they come out strong tonight after the whipping they took Saturday. They are too good of a team not to bounce back.
