Can he score on a great Badgers&#8217; defense that is holding opponents to 35.9% shooting?<\/p>\n<p>Zeller will need more help from Christian Watford (12.6 ppg) than he has been getting, as Watford has only averaged 9 ppg on only 30.6% shooting in his last 4 games.<\/p>\n<p>Jordan Taylor (14.1 ppg) and Jared Berggren (11 ppg) lead the Badgers and this duo combined for 37 points in the win over Illinois. Wisconsin&#8217;s offense has come alive in their recent win streak and they can also shoot the deep ball going 9\/22 from behind the 3-point arc in the win over Illinois.[soliloquy id=&#8221;82219&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p>Both teams are pretty even on the boards and hitting the glass will be key in this game. Also, if the Badgers can hit the long ball and play a slower tempo game they have a major advantage.<\/p>\n<p>The Badgers are 0-4 against ranked teams this season while Indiana is 3-2 and that includes huge wins over Kentucky and Ohio State, who were ranked #1 and #2, respectively, at the time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Betting Trends<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Indiana is 0-4 ATS in their last 4 road games, 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games overall, and they have an Over record of 7-1-1 in their last 9 games.<\/p>\n<p>Wisconsin is 6-2 ATS in their last 8 home games against teams with a winning road record and they have an Over record of 5-2 in their last 7 games.<\/p>\n<p>Wisconsin is 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games against Indiana.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jason&#8217;s Pick:<\/strong> Even though the Badgers are playing well and are at home I think Indiana will give them a stiff test. Indiana may not win, but they will cover the spread and even though Wisconsin&#8217;s D is so solid I would take the Over with the point total so low.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"\/procappers\/\"><strong>VIEW OUR TOP CAPPERS PICKS FOR ALL SPORTS &#8211; EVERY SINGLE DAY 24\/7 \u2014\u2013&gt;<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hoosiers vs Badgers NCAAB Handicapping Prediction Indiana (16-4) has lost 10 straight to Wisconsin (16-5) in Madison and to snap that losing streak they will need to find a way to score on a Badgers&#8217; team that leads the nation in defense.
