Rotation #823
Indiana +8.5 over Maryland (win)
Indiana had no problem winning the first matchup this year. IU will be on the road in this contest, but they have the size to crack the Maryland defense. Most teams get their top production from their guards, but with the Hoosiers, it’s all about the bigs. Indiana’s top three scorers come from their forwards and center, so I expect them to score a lot in the paint. Maryland plays at a slow pace and tries to win low-scoring games. Indiana had a more difficult schedule this season and should be able to make today’s game close. Maryland has struggled to make three-point shots and is trending in the wrong direction heading into the season’s final week. The Terps have an outstanding defense, but 8.5 points is too much. Take Indiana.
