Indiana basketball vs. Northwestern: How to watch, betting tips, & more
Indiana basketball now turns focus to Northwestern after failing to protect their 21-point lead at Iowa on Thursday night.
The Hoosiers have lost three of their last five matchups against Northwestern, including a split in the two most recent games at Assembly Hall. Prior to the 2020-21 season, Indiana had beaten Northwestern in six straight home games.
Last season, the Hoosiers led the Wildcats in Evanston at halftime, 30-26, yet came out in the second half and were outscored 33-21, and fell to the 11-10 Wildcats, 59-51. After that embarrassing effort, let’s hope the Hoosiers come out with some pride at home on Sunday afternoon.

No. 15 Indiana basketball vs. Northwestern best bet: Hoosiers -6.5 & Over 133.5
My best bet for Indiana basketball would be to bet on the Hoosiers to cover the 6.5-point spread and both Indiana and Northwestern to combine for over 133.5 points.
A $100 parlay bet on the Hoosiers to cover the point spread and hit over 133.5 points could bring in a profit of $264.47 on Sunday afternoon.
