Michigan has 83% of the spread backing Sunday morning vs. Michigan State. The line has mostly sat at -4. We've seen books move briefly to the -4.5 and none that opened at -3.5 have moved back to that number. Sagarin believes this one should be a PICK'EM. The away team has won six of ten in this series with the Wolverines winning the last three and the Spartans the previous five. There just aren't enough strong indications giving one side the edge here. If the books started moving to Wolverines -3.5 we'd seriously consider MSU.
Scores and Stats has Michigan -4, which falls right on the line. They write:
"Jordan Poole broke out of a scoring slump as the sophomore sharpshooter knocked down five 3-pointers en route to a team-high 22 points in the win against Minnesota. Jon Teske, who is one of the most improved players in the Big Ten, matched a career high with 17 points to go along with seven rebounds and five blocked shots to help the Wolverines down the Gophers for the 13th time in 14 meetings. Iggy Brazdeikis scored 10 points and Zavier Simpson dished out 12 assists while Brandon Johns missed the contest with flu-like symptoms but is expected to play on Sunday."
Not withstanding: MSU is 7-2 Against The Spread in their last 9 road games and 12-4 ATS in their last 16 vs. Big Ten.
