Arkansas Razorbacks -12

The Northern Iowa Panthers will travel to Bud Walton Arena to take on the 16th ranked Arkansas Razorbacks and I think Arkansas will have no trouble winning this one by 15+ and cover this spread.

Northern Iowa brought back a bunch of experience from last year’s team, and got back AJ Green from injury, however, this is a team that has really struggled to score the basketball as in their two losses to Nicholls & Vermont, the Panthers failed to crack 60 points. Northern Iowa is shooting just 43.6% from the field & 31.5% from beyond the arc.

Arkansas improved to 2-0 on the season after defeating the Gardner-Webb Bulldogs by an 86-69 margin and any concerns of the Razorbacks had after losing their top two scorers from last season are a long afterthought after seeing the immediate impacts of transfers Chris Lykes, Au’Diese Toney, & Stanley Umude. J.D. Notae has looked impressive to start the season, averaging 24.0 ppg, while the defensive has also been solid as they currently have a rebound margin of 11.5 & a turnover margin of 4.5.

The Panthers are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 road games vs. a team with a winning home record and 0-5 ATS in their last games as a road underdog. The Razorbacks are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 Wednesday games and 10-4 ATS in their last 14 games following a ATS loss.

I think Northern Iowa will get better as the season goes on, however, AJ Green is struggling since returning from his season ending injury last season and that is concerning as he is the focal point of the Northern Iowa offense that already has trouble putting points on the scoreboard. Arkansas has multiple offense weapons led by JD Notae and as I just don’t think the Panthers have the scoring to match with Arkansas, I think the Razorbacks pull away in the 2nd half and cover this spread. Good Luck!

Brett’s Pick Arkansas Razorbacks: -12 -110
