Louisville vs. Indiana picks and predictions
Prediction
Indiana 82, Louisville 74
Moneyline
INDIANA (-14]65) is worth playing as a moderate favorite in this battle in the Bahamas.
Louisville (+135) was outclassed by Tennessee at home on Nov. 9, and that’s hard to ignore. It was the only notable team the Cardinals have played, and they were embarrassed.
The Hoosiers are a much better team, and they’re more battle tested, too.
Against the spread
Back INDIANA -3.5 (-105), as they look to rebound from a non-cover against UNC Greensboro after a 69-58 win.
Still, the Hoosiers are 2-1 ATS in the past 3 games, including an emphatic 16-point victory over South Carolina on Nov. 16 in Bloomington. The different here is that Indiana has been tested, and it passed, while Louisville +3.5 (-115) failed miserably in its only previous game against a team of note.
Over/Under
OVER 153.5 (-105) is the lean, but go with a half-unit play at most.
Again, Indiana cashed high against South Carolina in the only game against a power conference team. It cashed low in games against SIU Edwardsville, Eastern Illinois and UNC Greensboro, but the Hoosiers defense will give up a little more against a better Cardinals offense.
Louisville has scored 93 or more points on 2 occasions, but be careful, as it has hit the Under in 3 of 4 outings. The defense has been good, but it did cough up 77 points in Tennessee, again, its only real test of the season to date.
