Michigan State vs Wisconsin prediction
Mark Stewart, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel: The most promising part of Wisconsin’s effort Friday was its work on the defensive end. There is a better chance of the Badgers repeating their effort against Michigan State there than having another hot shooting day. Wisconsin was close to scoring an impressive road win earlier this month. The outcome of that game swung on a few possessions. We think things go the Badgers’ way this time. Score: Wisconsin 75, Michigan State 71.
