At some point, this Michigan overperformance will start. They are currently tied for first in the Big 10 but Torvik has them ranked 10th in the conference over the last month and a half. The only reason they are having success is they are punishing people with the duo of Goldin and Wolf down low but Illinois is more than big enough to stop that in its tracks. With both teams abysmal at shooting the ball, we will gladly bet on variance snapping back hard in this spot against one of the best possible teams to put a halt to Michigan’s dominance on the interior. Lock in the Illini!
