The current betting odds have Indiana listed as a 21.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Indiana has looked great in their games this season with their 8-0 record overall and their 5-0 conference record which has them right at the top of the Big Ten. They are ranked inside the top 3 in the nation and they have been rolling over the teams they have played all year. They are off a 56-6 win over a hot UCLA team in their last one and they also have a really impressive road win over Oregon too. Meanwhile, Maryland has looked good in their games this season with their 4-3 record overall, but their 1-3 conference record has them right near the bottom of the Big Ten. They are coming out of their bye week and have had extra time to prepare for this game, but they don't have the talent that Indiana has. They are off a road loss to UCLA in their last one, losing 20-17, and they have blown some leads late this season too. Their offense hasn't looked great either as they don't put up a ton of points in their games and they are going to struggle just to move the ball against this Indiana defense. Indiana has established themselves as one of the best teams in the nation this season and they are going to continue rolling in this game like they have been doing lately. The best way to place a bet here is on Indiana to cover the spread in this game.

“It was on a big platform against a team that was hot, and we wanted to be physical and dominate the line of scrimmage, and I thought we did that early in the game. Fisher made a huge play early in the game.” - Curt Cignetti after his team’s win against UCLA in their last game. 

“We've lost three Big Ten games by a combined 10 points in the last three weeks. I'm not going to ask what is the issue, or why this keeps happening. Why is a victim question, and I'm not a victim. I'm going to ask what we need to do or what I need to do to be able to get us to finish these games.” - Mike Locksley after his team’s loss against UCLA in their last game.
