Minnesota @ Illinois 9:00 PM ET
Game# 749-750
Play On: Over 154.5

Illinois has played 7-0 to the over in their last 7 and 15-2 over during their previous 17 games. Minnesota is coming off a 73-55 loss at Nebraska in their previous game which easily went under the total. But, the Golden Gophers have played 3-0 to the over in their last 3 after an under and there was a combined 165.0 points scored per game. Additionally, Minnesota has played 6-0 to the over this season in games when the total was 150.0 or greater and there was a combined 160.2 points scored per contest. Both teams have been very good at getting to the free throw line over each of their previous 5 games with Illinois averaging 24 attempts per outing and Illinois 26 which is extremely high by college basketball standards. Through that identical 5-game stretch, Illinois has made a superb 80.5% of those attempts and they allowed opponents 27 free throws per contest as well. Give me this game to go over the total.
