    I think you and all of america would agree but when I see a line like that it makes me wonder whats up? I know the guys in vegas arent that dumb, Something fishy about this game, cause the public should/will be all MSU

      i feel you on that bruh...however...illinois's starting center brian randle is out for the season and i just don't see a tom izzo squad with superior guard play losing to michael jordan's son's team...btw...jeffrey jordan is horrible!! Also...their leading scorer pruitt is horrible at shooting free throws!!!! he single handedly lost that game against indiana because of it!!

            Very true anytime vegas makes me wonder whats going on and I see these stats and the way each teams play makes me , So leave it alone many more games on the board.

              my first reaction when i seen the line was , DAMN, i'm all over Mich St., but then i went to check sportsbookspy, and like 96% of the early bets are on Mich St.
              so i'm going to have to look into this more, i hate when its that one-sided.

                I wouldn't say State has been playing great. They've been solid at home, but questionable on the road. That being said, I'm taking the gift of the small line. Illinois is only 3-7 in their last 10 and just 6-7 at home. I'll take the better talent and hope they show up!

                        Illinois has been playing somewhat better lately and the fact that has trap written all over it I went ahead and played the Illini.

                          I like Illinois in this position. Wisconsin did kill them, but Wisconsin and MSU are 2 completely different teams. MSU can't seem to find a way to score on the road and have already solidfied an ncaa bid, so how hard will they play?

                            MICHIGAN ST. -2 or -2.5 (whatever you can get at this point)

                            The last time these two teams played Michigan St. held Illinois to 30% shooting and missed ALL 9 of their three point shots and STILL won by 10. Also the Illini didn't put a single player in double figures. Their season is over. It's been over. Spartans are still playing for seating in the tourney. That's my play anyway. Line will probably end up at 3, but take whatever you can get, I don't think it will be close. GL everyone!

                            63.5% ATS YTD, 7-1 LAST 8 NCAA games ATS

                              Mich St is clearly the better team, but on any given day a divsion rival can beat you on their home court. Also Mich St is horrible on the road but the losses to Iowa and Penn St is what sacres me.

                                Illinois will win, why?

                                1)Spartans are dreadful on the road.
                                2)Spartans could careless if they lose.
                                3)Illini will be motivated to upset a rank team at home.
                                4)Illini should score more with Demetri starting a the Point so more scoring opportunities for the fighting illini.
                                5)Enough Said!
