Wisconsin is 10-1 at home but has a losing road mark (2-3). Last week, the Badgers traveled to the West Coast, beating USC while losing at UCLA (85-83). They were also road underdogs last month at Marquette and Illinois, losing both games, 88-74 and 86-80. Maryland is big and keeps getting better with 6-9 senior Julian Reese (13.7 ppg, 9.2 rpg) and 6-10 freshman center Derik Queen (15.2 ppg, 8.1 rpg). Queen was named the Big Ten Freshman of the Week after averaging 16.0 points and 8.5 rebounds in wins at Illinois (91-70 as a +6.5 dog) and Indiana (79-78). The offense averages 83.4 points with five players scoring in double digits while shooting 48.8% from the field. Maryland has won five of six, has a pair of top-25 wins, and is 12-1 at home. Play Maryland.
