MSU (17-3, 6-1) at IU ( 17-2, 5-1) TODAY!!

  • Who do you like? Its going to be a crazy atmosphere inside AH for this game. Indiana seems to be playing a little bit better now than a few weeks ago and MSU is looking pretty damn good. If this game was played at MSU I would take them but since its at IU, Im going with the Hoosiers.

    Also its going to be interesting to see how Gary Harris reacts to all the fans hating him. Last year Marcus Teague (from UK ) didnt adjust to it very well and tried to do way too much and had a pretty bad game. If he doesnt let the hostile crowd get to him it will be a huge plus for the Spartans.

    I think Wisconsin caught IU a little bit off guard at Assembly Hall, as Wisconsin was flying a bit under the radar. With MSU, IU will know they're going to get a fight so I see Indiana getting the win. Assembly Hall will be loud and rowdy as usual.

  • IU has a lot of trouble when teams slow it down on them (Wisconsin most recently). Izzo is smart enough to know this and he will likely try to slow it down. IU just needs to push the pace and run when they can. It should be a great game.

  • I think IU is the better team and the home atmosphere will definitely help. Izzo is a great coach though and he always has MSU ready. I don't think MSU has enough inside to contain Zeller and Watford.

    That does seem high. Pinnacle shows -9 but that is high as well.

    Both IU -10.5 and -9 seems too high if you ask me. I'd probably put IU at -6 or -6.5 personally. I would put money on MSU to cover but IU to pull one out by 4 or 5.

    I will never bet against Wisconsin when they play Indiana. 11 straight wins... damn

  • Yeah it's nice from my perspective, but I do not believe that streak will continue much longer with the talent IU is bringing in. They're always going to be a tough matchup for IU because the Badgers are as good as anyone at forcing an opponent to play at Wisconsin's pace, which happes to be the direct opposite of what IU wants to do. You can tell that the whole thing is getting to Crean with the way blew by Bo in the handshake line, but Bo isn't the first coach in the BIG Crean has done this to, and he probably won't be the last. Just one of the reasons I'm not a fan of Crean, but I have to give him credit, he is a hell of a recruiter, to the point that he recruits too many players and takes commitments even when he has no scholarships available.
