Iowa takes on Northwestern State on Friday in the first round of the NCAA Tournament at the Place of Auburn Hills.
While Iowa is an at-large team in this tournament, Northwestern State earned a bid by winning the Southland Conference Tournament.
Iowa was opened by oddsmakers as 8-point favorites in this Atlanta region game.
The Demons hope their 95-point explosion last game in a win versus the Bearkats was no fluke and that their defence can keep Iowa in check.
Steve Alford's troops played against the Buckeyes last game and came away with a 67-60 win, where oddsmakers had them as 2.5-point underdogs.
Some trends to consider:
Northwestern State is 4-1-0 ATS in its last 5 games
Iowa is 5-0-0 ATS in its last 5 games
Iowa is 10-5-0 OU in its last 15 games
