No. 12 Missouri Tigers vs. Iowa Hawkeyes Preview <\/strong><\/p>\n

Missouri (10-2) ended the season strong winning their last 3 games of the season while Iowa (7-5) lost their last 3 games. College football lines have Missouri as slight 1-point betting favorites in this Insight Bowl with a total of 47.<\/p>\n

In their last games of the season Missouri beat Kansas 35-7 and Iowa lost to Minnesota 27-24. The Tigers finished the season as the nation\u2019s 12th<\/sup> ranked team and this season Iowa was 2-3 against ranked teams.<\/p>\n

Kind of surprising that the Tigers are only favored by 1-point in this game, as They ended the season much better and the Hawkeyes will be without their leading WR and RB for this bowl game. WR Derrell Johnson-Koulianos (46 rec 745 yards 10 TD) was kicked of the team after a drug arrest and RB Adam Robinson (941 yards 10 TD) has been suspended for not complying with team policies. With 2 of Iowa\u2019s main offensive weapons not playing they may need to rely more on their 15th<\/sup> ranked defense.<\/p>\n

Mizzou leads the all time series against Iowa, but these teams have not faced each other since 1910!<\/p>\n

The Tigers run a very well-balanced offense with the nation\u2019s 43rd<\/sup> ranked passing offense and 48th<\/sup> ranked rushing offense. QB Blaine Gabbert (2,752 yards 15 TD) had a solid season, but even though the Tigers won their last 3 games he only had 3 TD and 3 INT in that span including getting picked off 2 times in the Kansas game. His main targets are TE Michael Egnew (83 rec 698 yards 4 TD) and WR T.J. Moe (77 rec 893 yards 6 TD). Egnew is a finalist for the John Mackey Award given to the best TE in the nation. \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This season Gabbert struggled against teams with a solid pass rush. Even though Iowa features one of the best DL in the nation in Adrian Clayborn the Hwakeyes only rank 83rd<\/sup> in the nation with 20 sacks and their pass defense only ranks 55th<\/sup>.<\/p>\n

Mizzou\u2019s rushing attack is led by the RB duo of De’Vion Moore (485 yards 8 TD) and Henry Josey (425 yards 4 TD), who both averaged over 5 yards per carry this season. Iowa has the nation\u2019s 6th<\/sup> ranked rushing defense, but in losing their last 3 games of the season they gave up an average of 158 rushing yards per game including 216 in their last game against Minnesota.<\/p>\n

QB Ricky Stanzi leads Iowa and their 45th<\/sup> ranked passing offense and with Johnson-Koulianos out WR Marvin McNutt (51 rec 798 yards 8 TD) is his main target and will have to make some plays. Mizzou has the nation\u2019s 36th<\/sup> ranked pass defense and the Iowa offensive line has to play well against a Tigers\u2019 pass rush that ranks 6th<\/sup> in the nation with 37 sacks.<\/p>\n

With Robinson suspended Freshman RB Marcus Coker (403 yards 1 TD) will be the featured back for Iowa in this game. Mizzou ranks 57th<\/sup> in the nation in rushing defense and if they can stuff Coker and their pass rush can pressure Stanzi they should win this game.<\/p>\n

Iowa has won 2 straight bowl games while Missouri lost last season in the Texas Bowl.<\/p>\n

I am still surprised Mizzou is not favored by more than a single point, but they will win by more than that, as their offense is solid and their D will step up. The Tigers will win this game and while it will not be a blowout they will cover the 1-point spread and win this season\u2019s Insight Bowl.<\/p>\n

This season Mizzou was a better betting team going 7-5 ATS while Iowa was only 5-6-1 ATS.<\/p>\n

Betting Trends<\/strong><\/p>\n

Missouri is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a an ATS win, but only 5-12 in their last 17 games facing teams with a winning record. Iowa is only 0-3-1 in their last 4 games, but they have covered the spread in 5 of their last 6 bowl games.<\/p>\n

The Under may be a good pick in this game with Mizzou having an Under record of 4-1 in their last 5 games and Iowa having an Under record of 4-0-1 in their last 5 games.<\/p>\n

Pick<\/strong>: Missouri -1
