Davidson vs. Iowa

March 20, 2015
img7:40 PM Eastern

Vegas sharp money has come in on Iowa the last two days - and they are right. Iowa (5-1-1 ATS run) has a huge frontcourt which will be a big edge over a small Davidson team that is not good on defense. Iowa was one of the top defensive teams in the Big 10 this season, a huge turnaround from a year ago. Iowa is #46 in rebounds (37.3) behind 6-9 senior Aaron White (15 pg, 6.6 rpg), 6-9 junior Jarrod Uthoff (11.4 ppg, 6.2 rpg), 6-10 senior Gabriel Olaseni (8.6 ppg, 5.3 rpg) and 7-1 junior Adam Woodbury. That will be a major matchup problem for Davidson. Davidson lost by 20, giving up 93 points in its last game. They also played poorly when stepping up, losing 90-72 to North Carolina - and Iowa won at UNC. Davidson is 0-4 ATS at neutral site games, so grab the Big 10 with the bigger frontcourt. Play Iowa.
