Illinois vs Northwestern Analysis

[blast00]

hey guys, I am new but read my analysis and look at my picks.

I really think illinois is going to cover they are coming off a big win vs purdue and have won 9 in a row vs northwestern.

Northwestern is also coming off a tough loss against iowa.

also Illinois needs this win to try and catch michigan state at top of conference... and there is basically no homecourt advantage at northwestern..

why is everyone going wildcats I really think illinois will cover...

thoughts?

I love Nortwestern here. Illinois is not impressive away from their home. 90% money coming in and no line movement. hmmmm. Illinois has lost 4 straight on the road. Only averaging 60 points a game on the road. Northwestern only allows 57 ppg at home. It will be an ugly with Nortwestern ending on top

I think illionis will get there big much needed away win tonight.

65% of the tickets bought are from illini fans, and I think the 3 illini guards will solve the northwestern 1-3-1 zone.

also I am liking the over I know it will be ugly but 118?? i think it will go over.

I hope you win, but I would be careful. They have made some real good teams look foolish in Evanston. The court shrinks down tight in that dump. Tremendous homecourt advantage here. I think a coach like Tubby Smith would agree!

Take Northwestern to the bank. Illinois couldn't beat a high school team on the road.

Like the under 54.5 1st half.
