I got off to a great start this season. Teams were performing in line with projections, my algorithms were in lock step with reality and then all hell broke loose. Went from plus 22 to plus 4. I am going to go back and check my w/l record in a minute (all games are posted to SBR)
Then, when I feel like hanging it up, a game like today appears, IU -5 at home against a struggling Fighting Illinis team. They held promise early on, I can not tell you what has happened to them. These teams share the same low point, being beaten by Northwestern.
Indiana is not the shining underdog that we thought they could be either. But, Will Sheehey is back today, Yogi is leading the Big Ten in scoring and Vonleh is tearing it up and that should push Troy Williams to play harder.
Betrand and Egwu played well against OSU, but OSU was as nervous as a whore in church going into that game.
Illinois beat IU by 3 on new years eve on their home court.
Hoosier fans get up for Illinois as they are still pissed as to how they treated Eric Gordon a few years back, and I am sure his brother Evan has not heard the end of losing that NYE game yet.
IU will absolutey crush IL today at 3:00. I will be sitting in the same seat I did for the UW game, just back from Illinois bench.
I will bet all my betpoints on this as well.
IU-5 10x
