Maryland at Michigan picks and predictions
Prediction
No interest.
PASS .
A Michigan squad that shot a robust 38.2% from distance from Dec. 10-Feb. 1 has fallen flat from 3-point range in recent weeks. Over its last 7 games, the UM has shot just 25% from beyond the arc. Peg some of that drop-off as being part of the natural ebb and flow of shooting numbers. Some regression is likely due, and Michigan is capable at working the ball inside as well. Maryland is just 1-3 ATS across its last 4 road games. Figure
MICHIGAN -1.5 (-115) as being the value side of this top-15 match-up in Ann Arbor.
The Under has cashed in 3 straight Maryland-Michigan meetings. Both sides are quite good in defending the 3-ball. Second-chance put-backs are usually a key part of the Wolverines attack, but the Terps are solid on the defensive glass. and the Michigan tempo has slowed over recent weeks.
BET THE UNDER 154.5 (-115) .
