Point Spread: -1.00 | -106.00 Michigan (Home)
Result: Win
Wisconsin was upset in their last outing at home losing to the shorthanded Northwestern Wildcats by a final of 59-66. The Badgers play at a similar pace to the Wolverines standing 4th in the nation in total defense compared to 176th in scoring average. The Michigan Wolverines have been stepping up their play at the right time winning their last two outings against Michigan State at home in blowout fashion followed by a nice double digit win on the road against Indiana in their last outing. Michigan seems to be back on the right side of the bubble, but the Wolverines are looking to secure their position even more as they head down the final stretch of the regular season. When playing up to their ceiling, Michigan has shown they can compete with just about anyone and this veteran led group has the pieces to be a factor come the postseason. We'll side with the home squad in this one as Michigan goes on to cover the spread.
