Indiana at Illinois

It is never easy to go on the road in the Big-10 and squeeze out a win, especially vs. a competent team. Illinois is every bit of that despite the recent failures. They opened the season 12-0, and it is likely with the No. 1 team in the country in, they deliver the "A" game which should be more than enough to make this one undecided down the stretch. You have to remember that the Illini have big wins over Butler, Ohio State, and Gonzaga, so they are more than capable of springing the upset here. The Hoosiers have failed to cover four of their last five against teams with a winning percentage over .600, and the home team has captured the money in four of the last five in this series. Play on Illinois.
