ESPN's "BPI" favors Northwestern over Michigan tonight
Though the people at ESPN have often proven to be a bunch of stunads, they did have Gonzaga favored over Duke.http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/game?gameId=401082453

Where do you get this BS

northwestern plays solid defense. The only problem is their offense ranks in the 90's according to KenPom

It's hard to win on the road and NW is a top 50 team. ESPN's prediction doesn't seem that far off.

Don’t read much into it. I have 0 confidence in BPI.
I do, however, know that NU has given us fits in BBall recently. But I think as long as steaks stays out of foul trouble tonight, our BBall team will continue to roll. I see a top 3 ranking by the time we play IU!

Maybe hopkinsdrums is on the same meds as Urban and just forgot this was already posted.

Wondering if MGoBlog 3.0 should have an IQ threshold for posting, in addition to the points threshold.

Northwestern is a tough place to play for some reason. I have a feeling the UM D travels well this year. UM wins by double digits. That is my BPI.

Michigan is -5.5. We were also favored over NC in terms of betting yet ESPN had us at 55-45 essentially to lose
Don't look at that, look at the line. Same team that lost by 20 to Fresno. Even if our offense lays an egg quality D usually travels well

We’ll drop a few games eventually. It’s inevitable. And it would make sense when you’re going on the road against an opponent you really can’t get up for. After two big time home games in a row.
I think they’ll win tonight but it wouldn’t surprise me if it was closer than it ought to be.

UM has lost the last 3 games at NU, Beilein will have us focused.

Kenpom say us by 6. Sagarin says us by 8. I'm pretty sure I'll listen to those two over anything ESPN says.

Iggy is shoots with his left hand but does everything else with his right.

Just win, baby.
