College Basketball Picks January 23
Illinois -7.5 vs. Maryland
Illinois is coming off a heartbreaking loss on the road in their last time out against Michigan State. They will bounce back in this spot and take care of business against an inconsistent Maryland team. Brad Underwood has once again put together a dominant defensive squad. As a home favorite, the Fighting Illini are 6-3 against the spread, and as the home team, they are 6-4 against the spread.
Illinois has struggled with some better Big Ten opponents, but Maryland is not currently in the upper echelon of the Big Ten. Maryland is a much worse road team this season. They are 0-4 as the road team and 1-3 against the spread.
