College Football Week 4 betting trends: Iowa-Rutgers Punt-A-thon, Oregon State getting love over USC and more

We asked oddsmakers for a line on the total punts in Rutgers-Iowa. The over feels safe.

Week 4 of the college football season has given us plenty to get excited about.

Among the primetime games scheduled for Saturday, a number of conference matchups should have the nation’s intrigue. No. 3 Ohio State vs. Wisconsin, Kansas State vs. No. 6 Oklahoma and No. 23 Texas A&M vs. No. 10 Arkansas may be the highlights, but they aren’t the main attraction.

Not for bettors, at least, and not when Iowa and Rutgers are on FS1 at 7 p.m. ET live from New Jersey.

That’s right, two of the worst offenses in the country has already attracted a ton of action. Of the 6000 (and counting) bets tracked by Action Network on Iowa-Rutgers, 88 percent of bets placed on the point total have Under 34.5 along with 85 percent of the money. Another 68 percent of bets on the spread have Rutgers (+7.5) with 63 percent of the money.

Meanwhile, Iowa is scoring just 13.7 points per game and has a team total points line of 20.5 at Tipico Sportsbook.

This is Puntmageddon on national television and we cannot wait. The Hawkeyes have punted 23 times in three games this season. Rutgers has punted 12 times over the same span.

It’s enough to make you wonder: just how many punts will take place in Piscataway this weekend? We checked with oddsmakers at Tipico to find out where the punt total line would be set. While not an official offering, Tipico told BetFTW the line is set at 9.5 combined punts with the over as a slight favorite at -120.

Big Ten football!

Let’s check out some other trends around the sport as Week 4 kicks off.

Iowa vs Nevada Game Preview

Why Nevada Will Win

Can you score a touchdown, Nevada? Just one and a field goal might get it done.

The Iowa offense is – let’s just be nice about it – struggling.

There was just one field goal produced in the 7-3 win over South Dakota State, and the one touchdown early against Iowa State wasn’t enough to hold up. There were several chances and opportunities to score in the 10-7 loss, and it didn’t happen.

Nevada has enough of a running game to push the Hawkeyes a bit. It’s only averaging 3.5 yards per carry, but it has been effective so far.

However …

– CFN Expert Picks, Week 3

Why Iowa Will Win

Yeah, the Iowa touchdown against Iowa State wasn’t enough to get the job done, but it almost was.

Is anything working on offense? No, but the defense has been a rock. It’s allowing just 2.3 yards per carry, it came up with three takeaways against Iowa State, and it’s not crazy to actually expect safeties from this group.

Nevada has a good backfield, but it’s not going to run on a regular basis, and improved passing game that showed up in desperation mode against Incarnate Word – a 55-41 loss – has to deal with an Iowa front seven that’s about to dial up the pressure even more.

– Week 3 Schedule, Predictions, Game Preview

What’s Going To Happen

Iowa will finally score more than one touchdown.

As bad as things are, the offense will get a little something out of a ground game against a Wolf Pack D that helped up against New Mexico State and Texas State, but got ripped up by UIW.

It’s not going to be pretty in any way, but to suffering Iowa fans, the O will look like the Greatest Show On Turf compared to the first two weeks.

Mobile ticketing problems plague Notre Dame, other programs

This system is flawed.

I’ve never liked mobile ticketing. Sure, it’s more technologically efficient and environmentally friendly, but I’ve never liked it. Taking paper tickets away robbed fans of physical memories of being at games, and that just doesn’t sit well with me. Teams already were moving away from it before COVID-19 hit, but that ensured that it was going away and never coming back.

I’ve always worried that something would happen that would cause the whole idea of mobile ticketing to backfire. For instance, someone’s battery might drain right before they reach the gate. If nothing else, someone having to restart their phone for whatever at the front of the gate would cause a long line of people waiting to get in.

Well, it happened ahead of Notre Dame’s home opener against Marshall:

While the Irish did come up with a solution before the system eventually was restored before kickoff, I only can imagine the lines this caused:

If this doesn’t convince teams that mobile ticketing without a backup system ready to go immediately doesn’t work, nothing will. I hate that so many fans are being inconvenienced in a way that is entirely avoidable. And it’s not only the fans at Notre Dame Stadium. Look where else it happened:

Iowa State vs Iowa Game Preview

Why Iowa State Will Win

Seven points probably isn’t going to get it done against Iowa State.

Iowa decided to make it as tough on itself as possible in a 7-3 win over South Dakota State with a field goal and two safeties – it was performance art.

Iowa State might be rebuilding and recouping, but it got the running game working right away in the easy win over SE Missouri State. The defense wasn’t a rock, but it didn’t break too often after bending, and it got the job done without having to show anything to Iowa. There wasn’t a lot happening in the backfield, partly because the D didn’t have to get too aggressive. Against an Iowa O line that needs to do something for the ground game, the Cyclones should hold up.

The passing game got a monster day out of WR Xavier Hutchinson – 128 yards and three scores on eight grabs – Hunter Dekkers settled in at quarterback, and …

The Iowa offense did absolutely nothing. Get up, don’t turn the ball over, and enjoy.

– CFN Expert Picks, Week 2

Why Iowa Will Win

Any win you can walk away from is a good one.

7-3, 77-3, they’re all wins, and Iowa is 1-0.

So what was positive about the South Dakota State debacle? Leshon Williams had a decent day running the ball for 72 yards. It was workmanlike, and there weren’t any big bursts, but at least he was able to settle in a bit.

On the other side, the defense was amazing. It didn’t generate any turnovers, but South Dakota State has a decent offense and it was held to just 120 yards.

Iowa’s defense is going to play with its hair on fire.

The formula has to work. Generate takeaways against an Iowa State offense that’s still getting its parts in sync, capitalize on every opportunity, and ask Spencer Petras to start hitting just a few of his midrange throws to keep the chains moving.

– Week 2 Schedule, Predictions, Game Preview

What’s Going To Happen

Just how much do you really believe in the Iowa defense?

It’s not like the Hawkeyes did anything offensively last year against Iowa State – winning 27-17 on just 173 yards – but the D saved the day with a brilliant performance.

Iowa State isn’t going to do anything funky here. The Hawkeye offensive front can’t generate a push, so it’ll be all about field position, turnovers, and mistakes.

But it’s Iowa, and we know how this works – Iowa State has lost six in a row in the series.

There won’t be anything remotely pretty about how this gets done, but the Hawkeyes will get one good scoring drive, the defense will somehow come up with something big, and it’ll be a win that defies all logic and reason.

Iowa vs South Dakota State Game Preview

Why South Dakota State Will Win

This isn’t just some random FCS team coming in to collect a paycheck.

South Dakota State is an FCS Playoff contender with an offense that’s dangerous enough to give Iowa more than just a push – it has a few playmakers the Big Ten would love to have.

Tucker Kraft is an NFL prospect at tight end, the receiving corps is terrific, and the offense gets back quarterback Mark Gronowski from a knee injury.

The Jackrabbits bring an efficient passing game, a strong line, and most importantly when it comes to dealing with the Hawkeyes, they probably won’t have a turnover problem.

But …

– Week 1 CFN College Football Expert Picks

Why Iowa Will Win

The Hawkeye defensive front isn’t going to give up much.

The offense will still be a work in progress, but the secondary has the playmakers back to be dangerous again, the line will get into the backfield, and the linebacking corps is among the best in the nation.

South Dakota State might have the balance, but the offense will struggle to keep things consistently moving.

The Iowa O line will try to get its groove back after a tough year. This is a program that knows how to fix the glitch – the running game will work against the SDSU front, and …

– Week 1 Schedule, Predictions, Game Previews, Saturday

What’s Going To Happen

This isn’t going to be a breeze.

The Iowa defense will do its part, but the pass rush from the Jackrabbit line will be a bother in too many key spots for Iowa to get comfortable.

Unlike last year, QB Spencer Petras will be a bit better with the deep ball, the Iowa secondary will come up with a big takeaway, and it’ll be on to Iowa State.

Big Ten Preseason Predictions For Every Game: Preview 2022

Big Ten preseason predictions for every game, predicted order of finish, and lookahead to the 2022 season.

You want the predictions for the 2022 Big Ten football season? It’s not all that hard …

Ohio State is going to be fantastic, and now it’s mad.

We got the Michigan curveball last year. It’s rebuilding, but it’s still going to be strong. Michigan State and Penn State are good, Wisconsin is really good, Iowa is Iowa, and others like Maryland and Nebraska should rise up and have good seasons.

Who can catch the Buckeyes?

More interesting will be a few strange twists and turns. Most of the solid teams can hang with or beat anyone else in the conference, and on the right day an Illinois or Northwestern or Rutgers should have the formula to pull off something fun.

There are two more years before USC and UCLA come aboard. That’s all anyone will be talking about, but until then, this season should be entertaining – at least outside of what OSU will probably do.

Iowa Hawkeyes Preview 2022

Yeah, Iowa got stomped by Michigan in the Big Ten Championship, but …

Iowa got to the Big Ten Championship.

Yeah, Iowa lost a bowl game for the first time since 2016, but …

Iowa got to the Vrbo Citrus Bowl.

Yeah, the end of the season might have soured things a bit to come so far only to struggle late, but …

Iowa won ten games, and got to the Big Ten Championship, and went to the Vrbo Citrus Bowl even though it wasn’t very good in a few massive areas – like scoring in the red zone, and scoring consistently, and throwing the ball down the field, and …

Oh, the defense was terrific. It was great against the run, better at taking the ball away – it led the nation with 25 interceptions – and gave up 19 points per game.

But the other side of the ball had a few issues.

Here’s the fun part. The defense might be every big as good with the pieces coming back, which means if the Hawkeyes can get any improvement on …

Iowa Hawkeyes Preview 2022: Offense

It was a grind. Iowa finished 13th in the Big Ten in total offense – averaging 304 yards per game – and it wasn’t because it took it easy and didn’t take chances so the defense could carry the load.

The passing game has been just okay for a while, and it’s been a huge struggle over the last few years to generate enough big things down the field. That has to be adjusted, and the running game has to be better, and …

Seriously, Iowa? The offensive line was a problem? That’s the most amazing part about the 2021 run to the Big Ten Championship – Iowa was able to do that even though the program’s signature position group was way too ineffective for way too long.

Oh sure, Tyler Linderbaum was a special center, and there was all-star consideration at some other spots, but the line was dead last in the Big Ten in tackles for loss allowed, struggled in pass protection, and blocked for the 101st-ranked running game in the country.

The interior needs a reboot with all the lost parts, but Mason Richmond is a good young tackle, there’s experience at right tackle, and it’s Iowa. This is going to be fixed.

Even with all of the problems, Tyler Goodson still ran for 1,151 yards and six scores. He’s done, but Gavin Williams got his feet wet with 305 yards.

And then there’s the passing game. Yeah, blame the line a wee bit for the problems with the lack of a downfield attack, but the Hawkeyes simply couldn’t bomb away like it needed to.

The good news – leading receiver Sam LaPorta is back after catching 53 passes. The bad news – the leading receiver was a midrange receiving tight end. However, Keagan Johnson averaged 19.6 yards per catch and Nico Ragaini is a good veteran. And then there’s the worse news – star return man and solid receiver Charlie Jones is in the transfer portal.

The quarterback job is way too up for grabs considering the veterans in the mix. Spencer Petras has the tools and the inside track, but he hasn’t been set the world on fire. Alex Padilla is giving him a push, but he failed to hit half of his passes last year. It’s an open competition – redshirt freshman Joe Lebas will get a shot – through fall camp.

And then there’s the …

Iowa Hawkeyes Preview 2022: Defense

It wasn’t always perfect, and it got hammered by Michigan and Purdue, but it finished ninth in the nation in yards allowed, gave up just 20 points per game, and it came up with lots and lots of turnovers.

The takeaways slowed in the middle of the season, but they also showed just how important the defense was for a team that struggled so much offensively. The 20 turnovers in the first six games set the tone for the rest of the season, and they picked back up late.

The 2021 D might not come up with 25 interceptions again, but overall it’ll be every bit as strong.

The secondary welcomes back ball-hawking star corner Riley Moss after he missed time hurt last season with a knee injury. He’s one of the best playmakers in the country, but there are just enough replacements for the other star defensive backs to need a little bit to be as good as last year. It’s an experienced group, though, that will be more than fine.

Now they need the pass rush to be there, and it will. Ends Lukas Van Ness and Joe Evans combined for 14 sacks, and even with the loss of Zach VanValkenburg – who led the team with 14 tackles for loss – the line will hold up.

If the linebackers aren’t the best in the Big Ten, they’re close. Jack Campbell is a tackling machine who’ll be an All-Big Ten star again, and Seth Benson – 105 tackles to Campbell’s 143 – will start to get more attention as one of the league’s best all-around defenders.

El domingo durante un juego de eliminación entre Iowa (región Midwest) y Utah (Región Mountain) en la Little League World Series, un jugador hizo una jugada ridículamente buena. También fue algo que nos ayudó a ver lo que se está convirtiendo en un torneo salvaje.

En la segunda entrada, Utah tenía las bases llenas y estaba intentando remontar un desventaja de 4-1. Dash Avery de Utah logró un hit lo suficientemente bueno que, en cualquier otra circunstancia, hubiera dado pie a unas cuantas carreras, pero no mientras Greyson Ballinger de Iowa estaba de guardia.

Verán, el jardinero atrapó la pelota mientras estaba corriendo y en un solo movimiento perfecto, lanzó un verdadero cohete directo al guante del catcher en home. Y sí, por supuesto que sacaron al corredor.

Traducción: Directo en la canasta del pan.

 

¡Dios Santo! Nunca adivinarán el resultado final de la entrada para Utah, por cierto, solo una carrera pues Iowa terminó ganando el partido 10-2.

Jugadas como las que hizo Ballinger son parte de esos momentos fantásticos de los jugadores de la Little League que hacen que la Little League World Series sea tan divertida de ver.
