Will Iowa hit Under vs. Nebraska?

With their spot in the Big Ten Conference championship confirmed, the Iowa Hawkeyes look to end a lengthy drought in college football Over/Under (O/U) betting.

The No. 16 Hawkeyes are 9-2 straight up (SU) this season, but the opposite on the O/U — Iowa has hit the Over twice and the Under nine times.

The Hawkeyes (6-2 in Big Ten play) wrap up the regular season at the Nebraska Cornhuskers (3-5, 5-6) on Friday.

The O/U was 27.5 — tied for the lowest opening total in history — for the Nov. 11 game against Rutgers, which Iowa won 22-0.

Iowa has hit the Under in six consecutive games, yet went 5-1 in that span.
