No. 7 Ohio State at No. 8 Iowa
Watch: 7 p.m. ET, ESPN
Odds: Iowa -5.5 || O/U 156.5
Pick: The Buckeyes have the fourth-most efficient offense in the nation, and they’ve vaulted to No. 7 after winning six of their last seven. Iowa has just the 117th defensive efficiency, which will be problematic for stopping Ohio State’s E.J. Liddell (15.3 PPG). The value is all with Ohio State getting points in a high-scoring contest.

Shoutout: Yesterday, we asked subscribers to predict the winner and high scorer of the Pacers-Bucks game. The Bucks won 130-110 with the Pacers’ Domantas Sabonis dropping a game-high 33.
Shaun Henderson came closest, picking the Bucks 118-112. While the blowout prevented his (very unique) choice of Giannis scoring 35, we’ll give him (some) credit since Antetokounmpo got a triple-double.
Well done, Shaun. Keep the picks coming!
