Michigan State vs. Bryant Prediction

Based on one historically profitable NCAAB betting system, the Michigan State vs. Bryant prediction for Friday’s game is the Michigan State Spread (-17.5, -110). 

Driving this prediction is Michigan State’s ability to convert from the free-throw line at a high frequency. 

The Spartans shot 78.5% from the free-throw line this season, which triggers a historically profitable system in their favor. 

Since 2006, teams with a free-throw percentage north of 77.2% are 49-16-1 ATS, assuming the team’s spread falls between -20 and +2. 

This system also improves percentage-wise with bigger favorites. 

Sample teams listed between -20 and -7: 8-2-1 ATS, including 4-0-1 ATS when listed at -10 or higher. 

This system has performed exceptionally over the last three years as well. 

Based on the original sample, teams are 23-2 ATS over the last three seasons. At -7 or higher over the last three years: 5-0 ATS. 

As a result, bettors should consider laying the points with Michigan State on Friday.
