Our Iowa Hawkeyes vs Michigan State Spartans Prediction
These are two very good teams that play well on both ends of the court. A 3.5-point spread may actually be a little generous: I’d say 1.5 or two would have been appropriate. But for a game that is expected to be so close, the details will make the difference. Michigan State is one of the top shooting teams in the country (No. 6, 50.2%), but Iowa is one of the best rebounding teams in the conference (No. 3) and the best on the defensive boards. Denying the Spartans the opportunity for second-chance points could be the detail that wins the game.
