Saturday's Slate of Games

 

#9 OSU @ #20 Iowa

The buckeyes (-3) travel to Iowa City in a show down of top 20 teams. Iowa is coming off a two game stretch where they struggled. Last week they lost a close one to Northwestern and two weeks ago escaped Bloomington with a win against a terrible Indiana squad. The difference in today's game will be Terrelle Pryor. The Bucks have a very balanced offense, averaging 245 through the air and 222 on the ground. Iowa has been stingy with on the run only giving up on average 86 yards a game. Don't expect Iowa to contain Pryor. Ohio State covers

#10 Ok. St. @ KU

The Jayhawks (+24) host one of the most potent offenses in the Big XII when the Cowboys come to Lawrence. The Pokes win and win big. If the Jayhawks only lose by 24 it will be a miracle.

  #13 Arkansas @ # 22 Miss. St.

The Bulldogs (+4) are 1-4 against ranked teams and the one win came at the Swamp when the survived in a 10-7 win over Florida. The Arkansas passing game is averaging 353 yards/game. I don't see Mississippi State fairing any better. Arkansas Covers
