I like michigan a lot tomorrow. I expected wiscy to be 3 or 4 point favorite and like michigan to win outright. I guess the oddsmakers agree with me. michigan has been very good at home and wisconsin is unbeatable at home coming off a huge win over a top 5 team. however, wisconsin is playing on the road and ripe for a letdown. michigan played a great game at home against michigan state last week and came up short. when michigan played wisconsin in madison a few weeks ago they had a large lead in the second half which they pissed away. they know that they can play with wisconsin.
michigan was a top 15 team in the pre-season, and had all the key players back from a team that won a game in the tournament last year. this season has been a complete disappointment. they are 4-6 in the big ten and probably need to go 7-1 or 6-2 in their last 8 big ten games to make the tournament if they dont win the big 10 tournament. this team can get hot if they hit their 3's, and manny harris recently said he is coming back for his senior season next year (whatever that means), and he is motivated to win now.
not getting the value that i expected in this play at this time (which will make it a smaller play than i had anticipated), but i really think michigan will win outright. back with an official play tomorrow probably on michigan + money line if they are a very small dog.
good luck to all.
