Online College Basketball Betting – Spartans Face Very Attractive Wolverines

The crestfallen Michigan State Spartans opened this season as the second best team in the polls thanks to a very strong appearance in online college basketball betting last season, including a Final Four appearance. After losing twelve games this season, it’s inexcusable to think Michigan State can suddenly spark some sort of turnaround. The betting community has rightfully turned a blind eye on this team, while keeping their hearts open to the in-state rival Wolverines.

Michigan State has posted an atrocious 10-16-1 ATS record that was much due to overvalue based on last year as much as the college basketball betting cosmos correcting on them. They overachieved last year. That’s as simply as I can put it. This year, they’re basically where they should be and are just 4-7 ATS when travelling this year.

Historically, they’ve fared very well against Michigan overall. The Spartans are a hefty 7-3 SU in their last 10 meetings, but are just 5-5 ATS during that run. They’re also 2-4 ATS in the 6 most recent games against Michigan and are 2-3 ATS in their last 5 games on the road in Michigan. That trend in itself should make you tread lightly against Michigan State in online college basketball betting picks this weekend.

Online College Basketball Betting Trends:

• Michigan State is 3-1-1 ATS in last 5 games

• Michigan State is 5-4 SU in last 9 games

• Michigan is 2-3 SU in last 5 games

• Michigan is 9-1 ATS in last 10 games

The Michigan Wolverines haven’t fared that much better in the win-loss column than their rival, but are a darling on the betting line. Michigan is 7-3 SU and 9-1 ATS in their last 10 games and that has caught the attention of handicappers like me who told you to get on this bandwagon at mid-season. Michigan is also a strong 9-5 ATS at home this season, which is built in to their very attractive 16-8 ATS record.

What Michigan holds over Michigan State is a thrilling upset in late January as well. They conquered the Spartans 61-57 in the last game on the road at Michigan State, and that was with a -11.0 point line working against them. To put it simply, Michigan can end their season on a high note by beating Michigan State and I’ll take their softened number which should come in on the low end and post some serious value in online college basketball online betting.
