Northwestern at Michigan

Northwestern is not going to get into a running game, preferring a slow pace. The defense has allowed 35, 64, 52, and 57 points in four of the last five games (three wins). Northwestern is better than they were a year ago, adding guard JerShon Cob (12.2 points per game), their second leading scorer who sat out all of last season. The Michigan Wolverines are 3-10 ATS in their last 13 against the Big Ten, and have injury concerns. The Wolverines opened up Big Ten play with a 63-60 win on the road versus Minnesota, but injury concerns continue to mount for John Beilein's team. Mitch McGary has already been ruled out indefinitely as he gets set to reportedly undergo back surgery next week, while Glenn Robinson III sustained an ankle injury in the second half against the Golden Gophers and will be a game-time decision on today. Grab the big dog in what will be a slow, defensive-oriented game. Play Northwestern.
