Top Week 10 college football expert predictions
One of Casale's top Week 10 college football picks: He is backing Iowa (-3) over Wisconsin on Saturday at 7:30 p.m. ET for the Heartland Trophy. This is a rivalry that dates back to 1894 with a 72-pound brass bull trophy that has been awarded to the winner since 2004. Wisconsin holds a 49-46-2 edge all-time but Iowa has won the last two head-to-head matchups.
This time around, Casale is expecting more of the same due, in part, to Iowa's home-field advantage. The Hawkeyes are 4-1 at Kinnick Stadium this year with the only loss coming by a single point (20-19) against No. 11 Iowa State. Iowa held Northwestern to 43 rushing yards last week and should be able to make it Wisconsin one-dimensional.
"The Badgers simply don't have a passing game to threaten defenses down the field, so it's imperative they move the football on the ground," Casale says. "That won't be an easy task on Saturday. Iowa ranks 22nd at defending the run and allows just over 70 rushing yards per game at home." See what other picks Casale likes at SportsLine.
