CITRUS BOWL - A pair of teams that like to run the football meet here, but only one has a big edge defensively. Kentucky is #52 in the nation defensively in yards allowed, #31 in points, #66 on third down, and #123 with nine takeaways. Kentucky QB Will Levis has 10 TDs and six picks over the last five games, including three interceptions in a 31-17 loss to Mississippi State as a +1 underdog. Meanwhile, No. 15 Iowa is #13 in the nation defensively in points allowed and in rush 'D,' surrendering 113.8 yards per game on the ground while the Hawkeye secondary has picked off 24 passes. Iowa takes excellent care of the football offensively, turning it over just 16 times in 13 games. Iowa beat Iowa State, 27-17, as a +3 dog and won two games ago as a dog at Nebraska, 28-21. The wagering value is on the disciplined, well-coached underdog with the outstanding defense to win the game. Play Iowa on the moneyline for a Max Play.
