Let’s get to my best bet for the Big 10 Tournament Final between the Iowa Hawkeyes and Nebraska Cornhuskers below in my Iowa vs Nebraska picks and Iowa vs Nebraska predictions below.

Pick: Iowa -16 | Play to -17.5

The Lady Cornhuskers enter the Big 10 Championship as the fifth seed in the Big 10 tournament and are playing their best basketball of the season. After overcoming a slow start against 12th-seed Purdue in the first round, Nebraska cruised its way past 4th-seed Michigan State in the quarterfinals before leading wire-to-wire against 8th-seed Maryland in the semifinals.

Nebraska is 3-0 ATS in the tournament, after covering twice as favorites and once as underdogs.

Fifth-year senior guard Jaz Shelley has been on an absolute heater in Minneapolis. She’s shooting 71% from the field through three games and has made 13 of her 30 3-point attempts. People might remember her hitting a clutch 3 in Nebraska’s win over Iowa back in February with 30 seconds left.

The Iowa Hawkeyes have made quick work of their two opponents in their two Big 10 Tournament games despite Caitlin Clark shooting well below her average from deep. After a 2-14 performance in a 95-62 win over 7-seed Penn State, Clark went 4-11 from 3-point range and dished out 15 assists in a 95-68 win over 6-seed Michigan.

In the absence of injured senior guard Molly Davis, junior Sydney Affolter has emerged as an offensive threat and loaded the stat sheet. She is averaging 15 points, eight rebounds and 6.5 assists in Iowa’s tournament games. Iowa has covered both games against the spread on their way to a fourth straight Big Ten Tournament Final.

Iowa vs Nebraska Odds, Best Bet

Nebraska and Iowa split the regular season meetings with Iowa winning comfortably at home by 19 points back in January and losing outright as a 16.5-point favorite at Nebraska.

The “Caitlin Clark Effect” not only produces sellouts at road games but also at the Big Ten tournament as it sold out for the first time in history. There have been lines upon lines to witness one of the greatest college athletes ever.

With the crowd being heavily favored toward Iowa, I love the Hawkeyes to get their revenge here in what will be Caitlin Clark’s last Big 10 game ever.

Pick: Iowa -16 | Play to -17.5
