Indiana at No. 11 Michigan State Prediction: Odds, Expert Picks, Betting Trends and Stats
The Big Ten men’s basketball season continues tonight as the Hoosiers of Indiana (14-10, 5-8) travel to East Lansing to take on the No. 11 Michigan State Spartans (19-4, 10-2).
Spartans’ Head Coach Tom Izzo is on the precipice of history. He won his 353rd career Big Ten game 86-74 Saturday against Oregon. The win tied the legendary coach with Bobby Knight for the most wins in the history of the Big Ten.
The Spartans sit in second place in the Big Ten, just 0.5 games behind the Purdue Boilermakers. Sparty snapped a modest two-game losing streak Saturday at the Breslin Center with an 86-74 win over the visiting Oregon Ducks. Michigan State outscored Oregon 50-24 after halftime.
Indiana has lost five straight and Head Coach Mike Woodson is paying the ultimate price as the rumors are growing louder he has agreed to step down after the season. The Indiana alum has been unable to get the team to come together despite having Top 25 talent on this roster.
The Spartans’ record in their last ten games is 8-2 while the Hoosiers’ record is 3-7 in their last ten. Indiana is 2-5 on the road this season while Sparty is 12-0 at home.

Man shot by security guard in hospital emergency room waiting area in Gary, Indiana
A man’s family is demanding answers after he was shot by a security guard inside a hospital emergency room waiting area on Tuesday night in Gary, Indiana.
Methodist Northlake Hospital officials said, around midnight Tuesday night, its security staff responded quickly after a patient took out a gun. The hospital said he’d threatened to shoot himself or others.
The hospital commended the security guard who shot the man for “neutralizing the threat and helping ensure the safety of our patients and employees.”
Family members identified the man who was shot as Otis Brown. They said he is a kind father to a 12-year-old boy.
“Just a great person, a happy-go-lucky, always out there trying to do the right thing,” said his fiancée, Stacey Taylor.
Taylor said she was on a business trip when she got a call that Brown had been shot multiple times.
“Scared, uncertainty; you know, what story is right? You know, what happened?” she said.
After he was shot, Brown was taken to University of Chicago Medical Center for treatment.
Taylor said she had no idea why Brown went to Methodist Northlake Hospital in the first place. His family said he was trying to leave the hospital when the shooting happened, claiming that the hospital gave him his gun back after he was cleared to leave.
“We just want to get answers, just want to know what happened, particularly when people are defaming his name,” Taylor said.
She and Brown’s family hope the hospital has surveillance video footage that can help provide answers.
Gary police have not provided any details on the shooting. The Lake County Sheriff’s Department said it is investigating the shooting at the request of Gary police, but did not provide any further information.
