I like this Wisconsin team. They were briefly in the top 25 and then were hammered by a very good BYU club in Utah. Right now, they are a very good team and not great away from home. The Badgers are led by Boyd, a San Diego State transfer, who averages 21 points per game and 1.6 steals on 50% shooting from the field (34.1% 3pt). Blackwell, a 6-4 junior guard, adds 19 points per game, 39.3% shooting from the field, and 40% from three-point range. Wisconsin is ranked 27th by KenPom, 31st in Adjusted Offense Efficiency and 43rd in Adjusted Defense. Their defense is solid, especially at home where they allow just 32.1% from long range. The Badgers have dominated the Wildcats lately, winning eight of 10 and four straight. Wisconsin will also have the edge on the boards, where they are 55th in rebound rate and Northwestern is 232nd.
