Michigan 1-5 ATS in their last six at home against teams with winning road records and Illinois 1-4 ATS in their last five overall. Illinois has won and covered the last four games against the Wolverines. Illinois is 6-4 in true road games. Michigan lost on the road earlier this season to the Illini. Cockburn was unstoppable in that game and should cause Michigan problems in this one. Michigan looked good with Martelli on the bench but they can't play with that emotion every game. I like the Illini in this one.

Play on Illinois. This is a 9* play
