Pick by FOX Sports Betting Analyst Chris Fallica:

I think Indiana is good. Like legit being-9-0-when-they-host-Michigan good. IU’s +165 scoring margin is bested by only Ole Miss, Tennessee, Miami and Texas. But the Terps represent the best offensive challenge for IU this season behind the QB-WR tandem of Billy Edwards Jr. and Tai Felton. This will not be an easy one for the Hoosiers.

PICK: Maryland (+7) to lose by fewer than 7 points, or win outright
