College basketball picks for Michigan vs. Indiana
Before tuning into the Indiana vs. Michigan game, you need to see the college basketball picks from SportsLine’s advanced computer model.

For Michigan vs. Indiana, the model projects that the Hoosiers cover the spread. This is a difficult scheduling spot for Michigan, which went on the road and lost a thriller against Illinois in double overtime on Thursday. The Wolverines could have drastically increased their NCAA Tournament chances with a win in that game, but now they will be under immense pressure at Assembly Hall.
They already came up short against Indiana once this season, losing as home favorites last month. Indiana’s Trayce Jackson-Davis was dominant in that game, scoring 28 points and completing his double-double with 11 rebounds. He tallied 26 points, 13 rebounds, five assists and four steals against Iowa on Tuesday.
SportsLine’s model is projecting another big game from him on Sunday, as he is scoring more than 20 points and grabbing more than 10 rebounds in the latest simulations. The Hoosiers have been tough to handle at home this season, going 14-2 in their 16 home games. Michigan is just 2-6 in its last eight road games, one reason why Indiana is covering the spread well over 50% of the time. Stream the game here.
