Sports Betting at the Sportsbook

The Arizona Wildcats have displayed a pretty good running game to open the season. The team sits at 2-0 on the year and has been led on the ground by running back Nic Grigsby who has gained 325 yards on 28 carries for 8.6 yards per carry average. First year starting quarterback sophomore Matt Scott gets the start in his first ever road start. Scott has been hitting on 66% of his passes with a touchdown and an interception. Defensively the Arizona Wildcats contained NFL quarterback prospect Dan LeFevour in week 1 who completed only 58% of his passes for 108 yards no touchdowns and an interception. His longest play from scrimmage was only 16 yards in that game so Arizona’s defense must be respected in this game. The Iowa Hawkeyes enter this game with Arizona with a 2-0 record and is coming off a 35-3 victory over in state rival the Iowa St Cyclones. Quarterback Ricky Stanzi has hit on 58% of his passes with 5 touchdowns and 2 interceptions on the season. Up next for Iowa is a huge Big 10 Conference test against Penn St in Happy Valley and ABC will televise the game in prime time. Iowa is an average running team averaging just 4.2 yards per carry. Iowa will be challenged here for offense as the Wildcats have allowed an averaged of just 70 yards rushing and 133 passing.
