Iowa vs. Kentucky 1:00 PM ET
Game# 269-270
Play On: Iowa -135 (5*)

For starters, the Kentucky offense will be without their starting quarterback Will Levis who opted out. Things were going to be hard enough for the Kentucky offense even with Levis against the Hawkeyes stingy defense. Iowa allowed 13 points or fewer in 8 of 12 games this season. Speaking of Iowa, they’ll certainly be looking to get the bad taste out of their mouths after suffering a 24-17 home loss to Nebraska, and that transpired with them closing as a 10.5-point favorite. That defeat dropped the Hawkeyes record to 7.5 (.583). Iowa will be facing a Kentucky team which enters this Music City Bowl matchup with an identical 7-5 (.583) record.

College Football favorites like Iowa who are coming off a conference SU loss as a favorite of 6.0 or greater, and they possess a win percentage of between .510 to .600, versus an opponent like Kentucky who has a win percentage of .800 or worse, resulted in those favorites going 30-0 SU since 2016.

Give me Iowa on the money line.
