ILLINOIS VS INDIANA SUNDAY

[Carpet]

Illinois open a 10 point chalk vs the Hoosiers in Indy

While Indiana is improving and would like nothing more
than pay back Illinois for a 74-52 thrashing early this
year, this aint gonna happen.

Illinois coming off a Huge come back Win last
game vs Northwestern. There is some banter out
there that this could be a trap game for Illinois.
Some feel they are tired, exhausted looking ahead.

Carpet disagrees, This young team is not tired, Hell
they only played 6 minutes of basketball last game.
They are not looking ahead, Coach Weber has them
focused.

These 2 teams Hate each other, while that may be
the case, and there is a report of a STRIPE OUT in
Indiana tommorrow for the game. (A sea of red and
white stripes). Illinois is far superior in every position
from a pure athletic stand point.

Indiana and Defense do not work in the same sentence
or on a basketball court.

My numbers show Illinois by 14

Good Luck all

Illinois covers the spread and wins by 13

Next up Penn State Feb 18 and the Illini
are at home vs the pesky nittany lions who
are a scrappy bunch of good shooters. They play
a multiple guard offense and could cause Illinois
some problems.

March 1st a date circled in RED on the calendar
for these Illini vs Michigan State at Illinois.....

Illinois is 21-5 (9-4 Big ten) are in the hunt
for the big ten title trailing Michigan State 20-5
(10-2 big ten) by 2 games.

Illinois is undefeated this year at home, something
that no Big 10 team can say this year.

Illinois is the most improved team from last
year in the NCAA, LSU would also be my close
second pick.

Write in down March 1st the show down
in the corn fields with MSU.

Good Luck to all who jumped onto the Carpet
