I would not take this game. While I too believe Michigan will win, John Beilein has consistently demonstrated a tendency to be out-coached by Bill Carmody. Last year in Ann Arbor, Michigan had a 17 point lead late in the first half, when Drew Crawford scored the next 11 points of the game to cut the lead before halftime. In the 2nd half, Northwestern shot over 60% from 3point range en route to a blowout victory. Michigan has lost 2 of its last 3 home games vs. Northwestern. Michigan has 3 freshman starters, and another 2 freshmen in the frontcourt rotation. Northwestern is essentially a more skilled, more experienced version of Michigan right now.

I'm hoping for a shootout as I have the over too.

Revenge game for Michigan.

makes sense, and it helps that Northwestern just beat a ranked Illinois team.

I dont like Michigan as a fav, but all things considered its Michigan or nothing.

Jumped up to 135.5 most places still a strong play?
