Momentum is on the side of Iowa, which is riding a three-game win streak on its way to Tampa this coming Monday.
The Hawkeyes were last seen on the field wrapping No, 16 Nebraska an unpleasant present in the form of a 40-10 win at home on November 25. The Hawkeyes rushed for 264 yards against Nebraska and you could expect them to go heavy on the ground again versus Florida. Quarterback C.J. Beathard has been decent but the Hawkeyes’ passing attack that ranks 115th in the nation can’t be relied on versus Florida’s might pass defense that allows just 156.3 yards per contest.
That means a heavy workload for the pair of LeShun Daniels Jr. and Akrum Wadley, who have 1,013 and 966 rushing yards on the season, respectively, with 10 rushing scores apiece. The two also combined for 263 rushing yards and three rushing touchdowns in the Nebraska game.
The Hawkeyes are 5-2 ATS in their last seven games overall.
BSNblog Prediction:
Florida (-3) wins, 21-16.
