Purdue outrebounded Wisconsin 37-25 and held the Badger\u2019s scoring trio of Trevon Hughes, Jordan Taylor and Jason Bohannon to a combined 25 points on 8-for-28 shooting. The loss kept the Badgers from grabbing sole possession, and instead put them into a four-way tie with Purdue, Ohio State and Illinois for second place in the conference.<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bmaker.ag\/latest-promo\/?cmpid=17435_3889\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 3px solid #FFFFFF;\" src=\"http:\/\/banners.bmaker.ag\/images\/book_basketball_260_180_0.gif?cmpid=3052_1355\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=\"260\" height=\"180\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the Spartans are coming off their tenth win in a row, and nine straight wins in the conference, as 6-foot-4 junior guard Durrell Summers helped his team by netting a season-high 24 points and 10 rebounds to lead Michigan State to a 79-70 win over Northwestern on Saturday night.<\/p>\n<p>MSU leading scorer Kalin Lucas scored 23 points and four assists while Draymond Green contributed with nine points, 11 rebounds and four assists in the win. The victory gives MSU a commanding three game conference lead.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s hard to detect a distinct advantage for either team in Tuesday\u2019s match up. However, the Badgers will be without junior forward Jon Leuer, who remains sidelined due to a broken left wrist.<\/p>\n<p>Leur put up 21 points and seven rebounds when the Badgers lost 54-47 to MSU early last month, so his absence could prove costly for Wisconsin.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Michigan St. vs Wisconsin Odds<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The odds makers have the Badgers as \u20132-point favorites and a game total of 123 \u00bd in this one.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Free Spartans vs. Badgers CBB Pick<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If anyone can derail Michigan State\u2019s 9-0-conference start it\u2019s the Badgers who are a perfect 12-0 at the Kohl Center. However, the Spartans are 4-0 in Big Ten road games. I expect this game to come down to the closing minutes with the Wisconsin edging out a win 4-point at home and the UNDER.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bmaker.ag\/latest-promo\/?cmpid=17435_3889\">CLICK HERE NOW TO BET AT BOOKMAKER.COM &#8211; THE #1 SITE ONLINE FOR COLLEGE BASKETBALL BETTING ODDS AND GAMBLING PROMOTIONS!!!!!<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><strong> <\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><em>Matt Martz is a freelance writer located in Central California.
