IU v Illinois Prediction Thread - 7:00pm ET

[IUclover]

Gametime: 7:00pm ET
Network: Peacock
Spread: IU +3.5 to +4.5
O/U: 157.5 to 158.5

Who ya got? Does it matter? Do you care? I'm here so I can't help but care with the hope that IU somehow makes the tourney. At this point, a first-round loss appears to be the ceiling with this team and that might be a stretch for their ceiling.

Overall, Illinois appears to be the better team but their best player, Jakucionis, is currently questionable to play. They beat Wisconsin, Oregon, Penn St by 39, and lost to UCS by 10 in their last game (without their best player). I predict another 20-30 point loss with Illinois making 15-20 threes or IU shows up and wins by 5.

IU: 81
UI: 76

Second Prediction:
IU: 68
UI: 88

Jakucionis, even if he plays, isn't as effective.

80-76 IU

Gallo hits two big free throws with under 10 seconds to keep the score respectable. We lose 88-70.

IU-73 Illinois-69

 

[IUNorth]

I would take the under.

76-67 Illinois. Not sure we’ll be able to adequately guard their guards and wings.

 

[edub72]

74 - 63 Illinois

 

[TR32]

IU 79-77.

Illinois 86

I'll watch until the deficit is double-digits then I'll move on.

You think we’ll get 64? Looking like even 30 by halftime will be a miracle.

I originally had Illinois over 100 tonight, but I changed it to 91, then to 86. I should have left it alone.
