Michigan State vs. Wisconsin CBB Prediction:
Michigan State looks to win their fourth straight, while Wisconsin is in search of their third straight win.
Take the Badgers. Michigan State is not good on the road, just 1-3 this season in true road contests, while Wisconsin is 10-1 at home this year. The Spartans one victory was last Sunday in Maryland; however, they were not overly impressive scoring just 17 points in the second half. They’re going to need a full 40-minute performance to take down a very good Wisconsin team and I just don’t see that happening tonight. Lay the number with the Badgers.
