What's everyone thinking? I have been very impressed with what Tom Crean is able to do with this young Hoosier squad. That said I think OSU started to get the train back on track agains UM and IU is due for a major letdown after their last two outings. I think OSU comes out ahead by about 12? Am I way off? What is everyone elses' opinion? :think2:
IU has been a totally different team at home as expected with any young team. The crowd will be loud and you cant imagime OSU being too excited to play this game. It is so tough in college baskteball to go into anyones gym when you are expected to win by 7 points.
I wouldnt touch this game but I think this number is good.

I am agreeing with Hamboner here. OSU might be back on track, but UM is not that impressive this year, and I dont care who you are, Indiana @ home is like betting against USC @ home in football. Not saying that they are near as good as USC is in football, it is just the principal of respecting their basketball history, expectations, and fan base. Indiana basketball fan expectations are at a 10 and always will be. I think Indiana wins this one outright. There is something about Saturdays playing Indiana @ home (not that i would know personally, i live in Alabama). Just a thought
I saw a stat that Indiana playing at home on a Saturday is 15-0 ATS last 15 if they are an underdog or a favorite for last 10 years only if they have more then 21,000 fans in attendance...So its simple find the attendance and you got your play. If it is under 21,000 people then they are 0-19 ats as a dog and 0-17 as a favorite
Where the hell do you find a state like this?
Also, to all those who think IU is different at home Penn State beat them by 10, Michigan by 6, Lipscomb by 5, Northeastern by 13. So to compare IU at home to USC football at home is ridiculous. Not saying they aren't better at home but that comparison is just silly.
I was just messing around...anyway what other games are you looking at tomorrow. I would like to play Wake tomorrow..I was on Gtech as a home dog against Duke a few weeks ago getting 10 or 11 and they were in the game for most of it but the foul shooting is so bad I think they will fade during the last 10 min of the game. I don't like how they beat this same Wake team 2 times last year. Morrow is gone for GT and he had 20 pt games in both wins and Wake is better then last year by far.
I also think Tennesse wins tomorrow. That game jumped out at me right away and it looks to easy to play Fla. Tenn has been awful lately but I think they right the ship tomorrow. Houston should cover the number against Memphis but Memphis seems to be shooting better the last few games particulary Antonio Anderson
