Indiana With Points Solid Bet vs Michigan

· Dec 05 - 3 minutes read

The Michigan Wolverines will aim to get back in the win column and grab their first Big Ten win when they host the Indiana Hoosiers on Tuesday. Michigan has had issues lately, dropping its last two games and four of its last five, and it won’t get any easier as its first Big Ten game comes against Indiana. The Hoosiers have already picked up their first conference win and are on a three-game win streak as they look to keep things closer than college basketball lines predict.

Indiana Stays Strong

The Hoosiers picked up their third straight win and first Big Ten victory after downing Maryland behind a strong defensive game.

Indiana With Points Solid Bet vs Michigan

Though Indiana’s offense has been strong to start the season, it was its defense that stepped up against the Terrapins, holding them to 53 points, a 35.7% shooting percentage overall and 12.5% 3-point percentage.

Despite the stronger opponent, the game was one of the Hoosiers’ best defensive performances. They have allowed teams to average 68.4 points on 39.9% shooting this season.

Indiana will need another big defensive performance to help it keep up with a strong Michigan offense and stay a reliable college basketball pick against the Wolverines on Tuesday.

Michigan Suffers Heartbreaker

The Wolverines lost their second in a row and fourth in five games after falling in overtime to Oregon.

Although Michigan had a better offensive outing than it had in its previous couple of losses, finishing with 83 points on 48.3% shooting, it still wasn’t enough as it lost on a last-second 3-pointer to the Ducks, who shot a blistering 62.5% from three in the win.

Still, the performance showed promise after the Wolverines’ last few outings, where their offense has averaged 69 points on a 46.4% shooting in their last three games for two more losses.

Michigan will try to get its offense back on track against Indiana, but with the Hoosiers’ defense already playing well in conference play, bettors should see how it starts before looking at live betting odds.

Indiana vs Michigan Best Bet

Although the sportsbook has the Wolverines as a solid favorite at home, the Hoosiers should be a good college basketball bet to cover the seven-point spread from college basketball lines.

Michigan has yet to perform well against a strong team yet, and it’ll get another test when it opens conference play against Indiana. The Hoosiers’ defense should give the Wolverines’ offense fits once again after doing so against Maryland, which should help them stay in it.

Indiana’s offense has also been strong to open the season, averaging 73.6 points and leading the Big Ten with a 50.1% shooting percentage. Together with its defense, it should do enough to keep things close and the game exciting.
