Point Spread: -6.50 | -113.00 Illinois (Home)
Result: Win
Wisconsin @ Illinois 1:30 PM ET
Game# 627-628
Play On: Illinois -6.5 (5*)

This line makes absolutely no sense to me. After getting off to a 4-0 start to the season, Illinois has gone just 5-5 since. They’re also coming off a 13-point upset loss at Northwestern in their previous game. Now they’re facing a nationally ranked opponent in Wisconsin team who enters this game with a stellar 11-2 record. Something smells fishy to me in this one. Although Illinois has been inconsistent of late, they’ve displayed resilience by going 4-0 following a loss this season and with a decisive victory margin of 22.5 points per game.

Give me Illinois minus the points.
