There’s no doubt Michigan will come away with another easy win on Saturday as they have dominated the series winning nine of the last ten meetings. However, Indiana has fared well against the spread in the last ten matchups going 5-4-1 ATS in the last ten while going 2-1 ATS in the last three games, and has been the slightly better team this season at covering the spread going 3-2 ATS overall while the Wolverines at 2-3-1 ATS overall. I look for Michigan to get the win in this matchup, however, 33 points is too many points to give up which is why I’ll be glad to take the Indiana Hoosiers +33 against the Michigan Wolverines on Saturday.
