Bet Arizona State at Wisconsin
Wisconsin is a 13-point home favorite over Arizona State according to oddsmakers from online sports book BroburySports.com. The over/under for the game has been set at 49.
Wisconsin is 2-0 on the season but 0-2 against the spread. The Badgers have split the over/under in their two lined games. Wisconsin is just 5-8 ATS at home over the last three seasons and 2-4 ATS as favorites of 10.5-to-21 points since 2008. Wisconsin has hit the over in most of their games over the years as they have hit it in 5-of-6 games since 2008 where it is a 10.5-to-21 points favorite and hit it in 16-of-25 games since 2008.
Arizona State is 2-0 on the year and 0-1 against the spread. The Sun Devils pushed the point total in the first lined game of the season. ASU is 3-7 ATS in road games since 2008 but 8-1 ATS against the Big Ten since 1992. The Sun Devils have strong tendencies to hit the under as they have hit in 16-of-22 lined games since 2008 and in 10-of-13 games where it is an underdog since 2008.
In terms of the spread, we like Arizona State as Wisconsin is not typically a team that wins by large margins. The Badgers struggled to break away from a weak San Jose State team last week at home and Arizona State has the capable of playing much better than the Spartans. In the over/under, the total jumped three points from where it opened, and for that reason, we like the under. Again, the Badgers aren’t an offensive juggernaut, and neither is ASU. The jump in the point total is just too much for us to take on.
