10* BIG TEN ELITE BLOWOUT > > UNLOAD w/ CONFIDENCE!
(NCAAB) Northwestern vs. Illinois,
Point Spread: -12.50 | -110.00 Illinois (Home)
Result: Loss
T.M. Selection: Illinois (10* BLOWOUT).

Illinois routed Northwestern last month and I expect another beatdown of epic proportions here as well. Northwestern has lost 11 straight, so the temptation to possibly "look past" their lowly opponent, one which they annihilated 81-56, is a definite possibility, but in the end with the regular season so close to finishing, I don't expect any lapse in concentration from the favored side here. And that's the bottom line as far as I'm concerned. Illinois is vastly superior in every facet and as long as it's focussed on the task at hand, it'll have no issues covering this larger spread. And that's exactly what I expect; lay the points!

T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY.
