Indiana at Wisconsin: Three things to know

  1. Indiana relied on its defense and ground game in a 27-11 rout of Maryland last week. QB Michael Penix Jr. exited the game with an injury in the second half, which turned out to be a season-ending torn ACL. Sophomore QB Jack Tuttle will be under center for the Hoosiers Saturday.
  2. Wisconsin had its previous game with Minnesota canceled due to a COVID-19 outbreak within the Golden Gophers football program. The Badgers put up a clunker their last game as touchdown-favorites with a 17-7 loss to then-No. 20 Northwestern.
  3. Wisconsin has owned Indiana whenever they’ve played over the past decade, going 5-0 straight up and ATS with a 47.8-point average margin of victory. The last meeting was a 45-17 Wisconsin win in 2017.

Indiana at Wisconsin: Odds, betting lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Wisconsin 24, Indiana 16

Money line (ML)

Officially, PASS but with a slight lean to Indiana (+380) because I am taking the points and I generally like to sprinkle on the underdog’s money line when grabbing the points. Given the absence of Penix, I’ll probably lay off Indiana’s money line.

Against the spread (ATS)

We are getting some value on Indiana because of the unfortunate injury to Penix. No doubt Penix was having a great season but Tuttle is a 4-star recruit so there’s a chance we see some quality play from Indiana’s backup.

Also, this Wisconsin team is somewhere in between its 7-point effort against Northwestern and its back-to-back 40-point performances in its first 2 games. Wisconsin’s defense grades out as top 5 across most categories but the Badgers haven’t played Ohio State yet whereas Indiana did (42-35 loss on Nov. 21).

Furthermore, there is a lot to like about this Indiana defense: 1st in opponent’s red-zone conversion percentage, 17th in sack rate and 25th in opponent’s completion percentage.

Finally, Wisconsin’s readiness is a complete wild card because of its COVID-altered schedule. The Badgers had an impromptu bye last week and were off 3 weeks in between their first and second games.

GIMME INDIANA +13 (-110) for 1 unit.

Over/Under (O/U)

Indiana’s defense knows it needs to step up with Penix sidelined due to injury. Plus, Wisconsin has blown the doors off of Indiana historically and you know this group of Hoosiers doesn’t want to get worked by the Badgers like previous seasons.

All that is baked into the projected total of 44.5. I know it’s perhaps a square play but I lean UNDER 44.5 (-110) for a half-unit. Indiana will want to shorten the game and Wisconsin naturally eats the clock (1st in net time of possession).

The Maryland Terrapins (2-1 overall, 2-1 Big Ten) visit the Indiana Hoosiers (4-1, 4-1) Saturday at Memorial Stadium for a noon ET kickoff. Below, we analyze the Maryland-Indiana college football betting odds and lines, with picks and predictions.

Maryland at Indiana: Betting odds, spread and lines

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated Wednesday at 2:37 p.m. ET.

  • Money line: Maryland +300 (bet $100 to win $300) | Indiana -385 (bet $385 to win $100)
  • Against the spread/ATS: Maryland +10.5 (-106) | Indiana -10.5 (-115)
  • Over/Under: 62.5 (O: -110 | U: -110)

Maryland at Indiana: Three things to know

  1. Maryland’s game against Michigan State last week was canceled due to a COVID outbreak. The last game the Terrapins played was 35-19 win at Penn State on Nov. 7.
  2. Indiana went into the “Horseshoe” and gave No. 3 Ohio State all it could handle last week. The Hoosiers fought back from a 35-7 early second-half deficit to get within a single-possession in what was a 42-35 loss. QB Michael Penix Jr. completed 27 of 51 passes for 491 yards and 5 touchdowns with 1 pick.
  3. The Hoosiers have beaten the Terrapins in back-to-back meetings and have a 4-2 record (3-3 ATS) against them since Maryland joined the Big Ten in 2014.

Maryland at Indiana: Odds, betting lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Maryland 37, Indiana 31

Money line (ML)

Maryland-Indiana opened up with the Hoosiers being +425 money line favorites and it’s been moved all the way down to its current number. The line movement is puzzling though because 91% of the money and 81% of the bets placed are on Indiana, yet they are getting cheaper, according to Pregame.com.

The House is saying they’d prefer Indiana bets over Maryland bets. We are going to apply this logic even heavier in the ATS section, however, I lean MARYLAND +300 for a quarter-unit.

Against the spread (ATS)

We made a small play on the underdogs because we love them to cover the spread. Again, this line is moving in the opposite direction of how it’s being bet and we cannot ignore that. The Hoosiers are getting 75% of the bets placed, but Indiana went from a 14-point favorite to the current price.

Also, the Hoosiers played a highly emotional game on the road against Ohio State last week and could come out flat. Indiana is eighth in havoc created, but I really like Maryland’s chances of its rushing attack working.

The Terrapins lead the Big Ten in yards per rush and the offensive line is ninth in the nation in line yards per carry, 10th in opportunity rate and 15th in stuff rate, according to Football Outsiders. The Hoosiers are 16th in sack rate, but their defensive line is 116th in line yards per carry, 112th in opportunity rate and 117th in stuff rate.

More importantly, the Hoosiers don’t have the ground game to put away games: Indiana is 123rd in yards per rush and 121st in rushing yards per game. The front and back doors are open for the Terrapins.

GIMME MARYLAND +10.5 (-106) for 1.5 units.

Over/Under (O/U)

Indiana games have gone Over the total in four of five and the Over is 5-0 in the last 5 Maryland-Indiana games. If Maryland’s offense can have success it’ll force Penix and his awesome WR corp to play a little catch-up.

Furthermore, Maryland’s offense was trending up before the 3-week hiatus and its defense is 98th in opponent’s points per game. Take OVER 62.5 (-110) for 1 unit.

Tennessee Tech at Indiana: Betting odds, spread and lines

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated at 4:13 a.m. ET.

  • Money line: Tennessee Tech +1400 (bet $100 to win $1,400) | Indiana -5000 (bet $5,000 to win $100)
  • Against the spread/ATS: Tennessee Tech +22 (+110) | Indiana -22 (-134)
  • Over/Under: 138 (O: -110 | U: -110)

Tennessee Tech at Indiana: Three things to know

  1. Tennessee Tech struggled in the Ohio Valley Conference last season, posting a 9-22 SU mark, including 13-16 ATS with a slight edge to the Under at 15-14.
  2. Indiana hopes to tap into whatever the football team used during its offseason program and return to glory in the 50th season at Assembly Hall. The Hoosiers were on the rise last season, posting a 20-12 SU mark with a likely trip to the NCAA Tournament before COVID-19 washed it all away.
  3. Tennessee Tech head coach John Pelphrey tested positive for COVID-19, so he will not travel with the team. Assistant coach Marcus King will be the acting coach for Wednesday’s opener.

Tennessee Tech at Indiana: Odds, betting lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Indiana 84, Tennessee Tech 57

Money line (ML)

Indiana (-5000) will cost you way too much, as you need to risk $50 for every $1 won. It’s just not worth it, folks. AVOID.

Against the spread (ATS)

INDIANA -22 (-110) is the play, while Tennessee Tech will be without their head coach, which certainly isn’t helpful.

The Hoosiers, meanwhile, return Trayce Jackson-Davis and Race Thompson to a talented frontcourt, and they have added freshman Khristian Lander to a backcourt which already features studs Al Durham and Rob Phinisee. It’s hard to see the Golden Eagles having any answers for the Hoosiers in this potential blowout.

Over/Under (O/U)

OK, it’s a rarity for me in this opening week, but I like the OVER 138 (-110) in this battle in Bloomington. The Hoosiers are an experienced group, which will be folding in even more talent, and Indiana will get very little resistance in the frontcourt. IU should have its way early, in the middle and late, too. Look for plenty of offense on low-risk, high-percentage attempts.

Indiana at Ohio State: Three things to know

  1. Not only did the Hoosiers win at Michigan State last week, they shut out the Spartans 24-0 as 7.5-point dogs. They also have wins vs. Penn State and Michigan this season as they have their highest ranking since Nov. 27, 1967. As a matter of fact, Saturday will be Indiana’s first top-10 matchup in program history with both teams in the top 10. QB Michael Penix Jr. has thrown for 1,070 yards and 9 touchdowns against 3 interceptions, while RB Stevie Scott III (319 rushing yards, 5 TDs) is IU’s top back and WR Ty Fryfogle (424 receiving yards, 4 TDs) is the top receiver.
  2. Ohio State had last week off after its road game was canceled due to a COVID-19 outbreak in the Maryland program. QB Justin Fields has thrown for 908 yards and has as many TDs (11) as incompletions – the Heisman Trophy candidate is 72-for-83 passing. Plus, he has no interceptions. Five different players have caught TDs, led by WR Chris Olave (4 TDs, 288 receiving yards) and Garrett Wilson (2, 344). RB Master Teague III is the top back with 211 rushing yards and 4 TDs.
  3. Ohio State has won the last 25 head-to-head contests and is 26-0-1 in the last 27 meetings. The Hoosiers’ last win in the series came in 1988. Fields threw for 199 yards and 3 TDs in a 51-10 rout last season at Bloomington. The Buckeyes outgained the Hoosiers 520-257 yards, including a 306-42 advantage on the ground – Teague rushed for 106 yards on 10 carries.

Indiana at Ohio State: Odds, betting lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Ohio State 49, Indiana 17

Money line (ML)

PASS. The Buckeyes’ -910 price is way too expensive. They’re going to win, but it’s just not smart gambling.

Against the spread (ATS)

OHIO STATE -20.5 (-110) is the STRONGEST PLAY – 1.5 times your usual wager. The Hoosiers are 4-0 in the Big Ten for the first time since 1987 – they’re also 4-0 ATS this season – but reality sets in Saturday.

Several touts are advising to take the Hoosiers +20.5 (-110), but did they close the 41-point gap from last year’s blowout? Victories vs. PSU (0-4) and Michigan (1-3) are nice, but those two teams aren’t what they used to be. They haven’t played a good team yet – the other wins are against MSU (1-3) and Rutgers (0-4).

Over/Under (O/U)

AVOID the O/U of 66.5. It’s just a bit high. The Buckeyes, 1-1-1 vs. the O/U, average 46.3 points per game to rank fourth in the country, while allowing 23.0 PPG. The Hoosiers are 3-1 O/U, averaging 33.8 PPG and yielding 19.3 PPG to rank 17th in the country.

Indiana at Michigan State: Three things to know

  1. Indiana upset Michigan 38-21 at home last week as a 4.5-point underdog, snapping a 24-game losing streak in the series. QB Michael Penix Jr. has thrown for 750 yards with 7 touchdowns vs. 1 interception in three games. RB Stevie Scott III leads the ground attack with 235 rushing yards and 4 TDs, while Penix’s top target is WR Whop Philyor (252 receiving yards, 1 TD, 21 catches).
  2.  Michigan State was roughed up in a 49-7 loss at Iowa as a 5.5-point underdog last week, seven days after upsetting Michigan 27-24 in Ann Arbor as a 21.5-point dog. QB Rocky Lombardi, who was intercepted 3 times at Iowa, has thrown for 869 yards with 6 TDs vs. 5 INTs. WR Jalen Nailor leads the receiving corps with 271 yards and 1 TD on 12 catches. The running game, which ranks last in the Big Ten with 78.3 yards per game, has only one RB with 100-plus yards in Jordan Simmons (132 yards, 0 TD).
  3. Michigan State has won the last three and 10 of 11 vs. IU. The Spartans won 40-31 at home last season, but the Hoosiers covered the 14-point spread. The Spartans are 26-6-1 at home in the series, taking the last eight with the Hoosiers last win coming in 2001.

Indiana at Michigan State: Odds, betting lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Indiana 38, Michigan State 24

Money line (ML)

PASS. The Hoosiers (-264) will improve to 4-0 for the first time since 1987, but this price is more expensive than I like. Let’s make money on the spread.

Against the spread (ATS)

INDIANA -7.5 (+100) is the STRONGEST PLAY – 1.5 times your usual wager. The Hoosiers are 3-0 ATS, averaging 37.0 points per game and allowing 25.7 PPG. The Spartans are 1-2 ATS, average 20.3 PPG and yield 37.0 points per game. INDIANA continues to roll.

Over/Under (O/U)

The OVER 51.5 (-110) is the play. Indiana owns a 3-0 O/U record; Michigan State is 2-1.

Look for the Hoosiers to jump out early before letting their foot off the gas in the final quarter as they rest starters in anticipation of facing No. 3 Ohio State next week. Yes, this is what the season has turned into for the once-proud Spartans.

  • Over/Under: 52.5 (O: -110 | U: -110)

Indiana at Rutgers: Three things to know

  1. Indiana won last year’s meeting (Oct. 12) in shut-out fashion, with the Hoosiers blanking the Scarlet Knights 35-0. IU built a 21-0 lead by the mid-point of the opening quarter and with QB Michael Penix Jr. throwing three touchdown passes and the Hoosiers piling up 260 yards on the ground, Indiana boat-raced Rutgers to the finish line. The Hoosiers held RU to an 0-for-11 mark on third downs and they outgained the Knights 557 yards to 75. Rutgers had one passing yard in the contest.
  2. Both teams got off to a good start in the Big Ten’s COVID-19-delayed opening Saturday a week ago. Indiana defeated ranked Penn State 36-35; Rutgers topped Michigan State 38-27. RU’s win was in East Lansing, Mich., and it marked the Knights’ first road win since Oct. 14, 2017.
  3. Last season, IU earned against-the-spread wins on the road at Nebraska, Michigan State, and Penn State — all venues that figure to be tougher tests abroad than a game at Rutgers, but the Hoosiers were underdogs in those games. They failed to cover as road favorites at Purdue and Maryland.

Indiana at Rutgers: Odds, prediction, betting lines and picks

Prediction

Indiana 34, Rutgers 17

Money line (ML)

The straight up tag is laced with extra juice, enough so to figure the true odds as being well bracketed. AVOID.

Against the spread (ATS)

In last year’s ATS loss at Purdue, Indiana was facing a rival and the Hoosiers let a 28-10 lead slip away.  The Boilermakers had two fourth-quarter scoring drives measure up to less than 30 yards combined. At Maryland, IU outgained the Terrapins, 520 yards to 383, and missed a push by a half-point.

Last week against a Michigan State program which figures to struggle in 2020, the Knights committed three turnovers and were still a plus-four in turnover margin. RU was outgained by nearly 100 yards in total offense.

INDIANA -11 (-110) has the much better offense and the stronger recruiting base and is worth backing in Saturday’s road tilt.

Over/Under (O/U)

The Indiana ATS play is the strongest play for this game. The UNDER 52.5 (-110) HAS A MODERATE LEAN, but consider waiting out a total of 53 points.
