Iowa State Favored Over Iowa in Cy-Hawk Game

The opening Iowa vs Iowa State odds favor the Cyclones at home in Ames, but the line is under a field goal, opening at Iowa State -2.5 at DraftKings.

Both teams scheduled cupcakes in Week 1. Iowa blew out DII Albany (34-7), while Iowa State routed DII South Dakota (55-7). Iowa State also played in Week 0 in Ireland, taking down Kansas State (24-21), covering as field-goal underdogs.

Iowa owns a big 47-24 edge in the all-time head-to-head, including winning six in a row from 2015 to 2021. The Cyclones have gotten the better of the rivalry in recent years, winning two of the last three, including a 20-19 nail-biter last year in Iowa City.

Michigan vs Oklahoma Odds Favor Sooners at Home

Arguably the biggest game on the Week 2 schedule is a Big Ten/SEC clash between the #14 Michigan Wolverines and #18 Oklahoma Sooners at Memorial Stadium in Norman.

Both teams cruised through Week 1 but neither covered the spread. Oklahoma took down Illinois State (35-3) at home as massive 40.5-point favorites. Michigan doubled-up on New Mexico (34-17) as 34.5-point chalk. The Sooners game stayed way under the 60.5 point total, while the Wolverines games squeaked over its 49.5 point O/U.

These schools haven’t met since 1976, when Michigan took a 14-6 defensive slugfest, also in Norman.
