Premium Pick

The Wisconsin Badgers have the resume that to this point would project them as a #1 seed come NCAA Tournament time. They own an impressive 20-2 mark on the season, and have just a single blemish at home where they are 11-1 on the season. Northwestern once upon a time was a respectable 10-4, but then the roof fell in as the Wildcats' eight-game losing streak has left them at 10-12. The numbers on both sides show an over-value now on Wisconsin and an under-value on Northwestern. The Wildcats have surely not quit as in their last seven losses, three have been by 2 points or less and another in overtime, and just a single loss this season by more than 19 points. The Badgers are just 8-18-1 ATS in their last 27 at home vs. a team with a losing road record likely disengaged here. Take the points on Northwestern.
