Indiana +4.5 @ Maryland ...

Re: According to the math, that's a good bet.


Maryland is overrated, but the game is too close to call. It may depend on our three point shooters.
 
We will see what kind of road team we are.

Maryland will be a decent test for the boys. Hope we win. The threes need to fall because most likely Maryland will enjoy a pretty good scoring game.
 
Sagarin shows a +5.28

Betting wise I would not take that bet because it's too close for me. Throw IU's defense out the window...if they can hit shots from anywhere and rebound defensively to prevent 2nd shots from Maryland ... I think IU can win a close game. If their offense is stagnant with a lot of dribbling and standing ... Maryland win in a route.
 
I think it will tell a lot what this team is about

A decent team on the road ... see if IU can play better than at purdue and OSU. You would think a NCAA tourney caliber team would play well tonight.
 
The Terps shot about 51% in Assembly Hall

I suspect that figure may be higher at home tonight. Hope the threes are falling, if not could be a rough night. They have been struggling shooting lately though. Of course that was not against our defense.
 
Re: I would say closer to +18. nt

Could be correct... The first game we had lots of lucky bounces... We would need those same bounces going our way...
I hope this road game is one they can shift from the blow out mode...
