Bet on Indiana vs. Michigan

Michigan has won three straight meetings with Indiana, covering the spread in all three wins. Indiana has struggled in the transition of a new head coach, as they are 1-5 against the spread in their last six games following a loss and 1-5 ATS in their last six games against a winning team. Michigan is 5-2 ATS in its last 7 at home against a team with a losing road record. The Wolverines are also 5-0 ATS in their last five conference games. The public betting is siding with Indiana, but I think Michigan gets the job done at home.
