I dont like to post much these days unless I really feel strongly about a play, and I really like this one.....
ILLINOIS/OHIO STATE UNDER 137
In the game the other night where Ohio State won 74-67, Indiana shot I believe 12-22 from 3 point land, which kept them in the game. This is well over the average of what Ohio State gives up. Indiana was also perfect from the line 11-11. Illinois is a bad free throw shooting team, as well as Ohio State is a bad Free throw shooting team.
I use a website that has pretty accurate stats on the tempo/pace of teams in their offense, and while Indiana is a fairly slow paced team....Illinois ranks much slower. Ohio State is about middle of the road, but those numbers are slightly skewed because when Oden came in the lineup, the OHio State offense is much slower.....and their tempo numbers will continue to fall.
Add in the fact that with this game being in Illinois where the home crowd will pump up the Illinois D much more than the Ohio State crowd pumps up the Ohio State D at home, and this should go under.
Gotta run fellas.....good luck today
