Illinois State comes off a 72-58 win over Drake, but did not cover the 17-point spread even while holding the Bulldogs to just a .305 field goal percentage. Deontae Hawkins led the Redbirds with 19 points and MiKyle McIntosh added 12 points and nine rebounds. Illinois State is laying a ton of points again and the Redbirds are 5-12 ATS as favorites of at least 13 points dating to last season. Also, the Sycamores have covered nine of their last 13 games at Illinois State. Brenton Scott leads the Sycamores, scoring 17.0 points and grabbing 5.8 rebounds per game. Look for Illinois State to struggle to cover another big number, so take the big points with Indiana State.
