This is an 8* play on Indiana.

I normally wait until the morning of the contest to write my analysis, to allow as much time as possible for all relevant information to come in.

Michigan has played great this year, but this game means much more to the Hoosiers, who are on the bubble right now of making the tournament at 12-11. Michigan is 17-1 of course.

To say this is a revenge game would be a bit of an understatement, as the Wolverines have won seven straight in this series.

Overall Michigan averages 79.2 PPG, while allowing 65.7.

Indiana comes off a blown lead vs. Rutgers in its last outing, so it'll be eager to finally try and pull off a significant upset here.

If the Hoosiers can somehow manage to pull off the upset, it'll almost certainly clinch their spot in The Big Dance. Overall Indiana averages 72.9 PPG, while allowing 69.9.

With a couple days off before a huge home contest vs. second place Illinois, the temptation to look ahead is also there for the visiting side.

Look for the HOOSIERS to at the very least, keep this one close enough to cover comfortably.

Good luck, NP
