NCAAF Week 14 best early bet: Michigan -22.5 over Iowa (-110)
Ohio State walked into the Big House on Saturday and suffered its second loss of the season. The Wolverines grabbed the early lead and never looked back as they took down their rival on home turf. Now it’s conference championship week, and Michigan has the biggest spread of all the games at the time of writing. That’s not too surprising, either, considering Iowa’s offense — but even then, the spread isn’t big enough. Iowa’s defense won’t be able to keep Michigan out of the end zone for long, so I’m willing to back the Blue to win by at least 3 touchdowns.
