Michigan vs Northwestern -3 O/U 139
This should be a fun big 10 game to with two desperate big 10 schools facing off. One is offensive oriented in Michigan ranking 54th in efficiency to Northwestern at 85th, and one is defensive oriented with Northwestern ranking 26th in efficiency to Michigan’s 85th. The x factor for Michigan is 7’1 center Hunter Dickenson, but if he is slowed down, then the wolverines are very venerable. The Cats will be able to throw 7’0 Matthew Nicholson and 6’9 Robbie Beran at him which will seriously throw the Wolverines off forcing them to take low percentage shots at the arc where they are only 34.3% accurate. The Wildcats have been trending up lately, and they are a much better rebounding team than Michigan. I like the Cats to cover the three at home. The Big 10 is only 35% ATS when they hit the road this year.
Northwestern -3 – 3 stars
