Prediction

I’ll lay the points with Illinois in this one. They are 8-2 at home and 11-3-1 ATS over their last 15, while the Terrapins have yet to win a true road game this season. Maryland is 0-4 in road games and 1-3 ATS. At home, the Illini limit their opponents to just 34.9 percent shooting and 26.8 percent from 3-point land. Illinois is also a terrific rebounding team and are fifth in the nation in scoring (86.8). I can see this getting ugly.

Pick: Illinois -9
