Maryland is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games and 5-11 ATS in their last 16 games following an ATS win. The over is 8-2-1 in Maryland’s last 11 road games. Michigan State is 2-5 ATS in their last 7 Sunday games and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games. The under is 5-0 in Michigan State’s last 5 Sunday games. The home team is 5-2-1 ATS in these two teams last 8 head to head meetings.
Michigan State limps into this game after really playing poorly in their last six games. Maryland was towards the bottom of the conference all season, but has really hit their stride in their last five games. I would expect Michigan State to get back on the right track in this game, but their defense has been very suspect in the last few games. I am taking the over here.
