Michigan State vs Michigan -12 O/U 139
This line would have been bigger had Michigan beat Illinois. This is a rivalry game in Men’s basketball and I can only look to the desperate team here. Sparty has been very hot winning 4 of their last 5 games and now making a case to be a bubble team. The Wolverines are the best team in the Big 10 still in my mind and most likely a number 1 seed in the tournament. I can’t see them losing both of these games but I could see a desperate Michigan State team giving them fits. Sparty has been playing better down low having guys like Malik Hall and Marcus Bingham step up. When this team beat Illinois, they went big down low and laid the smack down on Cockburn. I can see them using a similar strategy on Hunter Dickenson and Austin Davis. If this line is 14 or better, I will probably be playing Michigan State here who is very desperate for a win and with Michigan on such short rest after the Illinois beat down. I can also take a look at the over because I think we might see a good amount of fouling this game. I have Michigan winning 78-65.
