College Basketball Odds: Michigan State at Wisconsin Picks

Michigan State will try and keep their perfect conference record in college basketball odds as they travel to Wisconsin on Tuesday night at 9:00pm EST in a game that can be seen on ESPN. The Spartans have had a lot of success on the road in the Big 10, winning 12 of their last 13 in college basketball picks but one place they have not done well at is Madison, Wisconsin. The Spartans have lost their last six games at Madison. The Badgers are a 2-point favorite with a total of 123.5 at online sportsbooks.

To win at Wisconsin, the Spartans will need a big game out of leading scorer Kalin Lucas. He is averaging 17.3-points in road games this season. The Spartans have won the last two meetings against Wisconsin but they have not won at the Kohl Center since 2001. The Badgers overall have won 17 straight at home in college basketball picks. This is a tough week for Michigan State. After tonight they play at Illinois on Saturday and then they host Purdue next Tuesday. "I can't think of a tougher three-game stretch," Spartans coach Tom Izzo said. "We could play awfully well and lose all three and all the sudden, it's a different story."

The Badgers need a big game out of Trevon Hughes who had just seven points last month in a loss at Michigan State. He had only nine points in Wisconsin’s loss at Purdue on Thursday. This could be a low scoring game in college basketball odds considering the Spartans are averaging just 55.2-points in their last six losses at Wisconsin. This season in home games, the Badgers are allowing opponents just 53.1 points per game. Bet the Badgers -2 as home favorites in college basketball picks against the Spartans for tonight's game on ESPN.
