BTN analyst sees Week 7 B1G game as ‘coin-flip’
Published:
We’re already in Week 7 of the college football season.
Six weeks are in the books and Saturday will mark the seventh game for certain teams. One Big Ten matchup may not feature a top 25 team, but it has people intrigued: Indiana vs. Iowa.
The Hoosiers are 4-2 overall, while the Hawkeyes enter with a 4-1 record. Indiana is just 1-2 in B1G play and is coming off a loss at Ohio State. Nobody will blame the Hoosiers for that.
Iowa, on the other hand, is coming off a big win at Minnesota, where the Hawkeyes put 48 points on the scoreboard. The betting line favors Iowa, as mybookie.ag has the Hawkeyes as 5.5-point favorites. The game can be watched at noon on ESPN2.
On BTN analyst — Gerry Dinardo in particular — thinks the game could go either way and should be a pick ’em:
"I think this (game) is a coin-flip."

Dinardo believes the game will come down to Indiana’s defense because he thinks the Hoosiers offense is more explosive than the Hawkeyes.
