Indiana vs Wisconsin Betting Trends

1. Wisconsin has won nine of its 11 games when listed by the NCAAB Las Vegas odds as the favorite.
2. Indiana is 2-6 this season as an underdog this season.
3. The total has gone over in four of Wisconsin’s last five games.
4. Wisconsin has won eight consecutive games at home.
5. Seven of Wisconsin’s 10 home games went over the total.
6. The Hoosiers are 4-10 against the spread in their last 14 road games.
7. Indiana is 2-4 ATS in its last six games in January.
8. The Badgers have covered in five of their last six games.

ATS Pick: Indiana +11

Indiana threw a scare into the Badgers the last time that the Hoosiers played in Madison before falling by five points. Wisconsin did win its 10th home game in a row against Indiana.

It is looking good for the Badgers to make it 11 in a row. However, asking Wisconsin to cover as an 11-point favorite might be asking a bit much.

Indiana freshman Jakai Newton is closing in on making his regular-season debut while reserve guard Anthony Leal is questionable for the Hoosiers.

Over/Under Pick: Over 142½

Back-to-back games between Indiana and Wisconsin haven’t both finished under the total since 2017 and 2018. Will that change when the teams meet on Friday?

Indiana has had some defensive issues that showed up in the last game against Purdue when the Hoosiers were outscored 22-4 at the foul line.

When it comes to the best college basketball bets today, don’t expect fewer than 110 points scored, as was the case in the last meeting.

Indiana is 73rd in defensive efficiency according to the Pomeroy college basketball rankings while Wisconsin will be looking to rebound from a loss to Penn State the last time out. It won’t be a surprise to see both teams score in the 70s in this game and that would push the game over the 142½-point total set by BetUS Sportsbook.

Player Prop Pick: AJ Storr to have 16+ Points (-124)

What’s in Storr for the Hoosiers? Wisconsin’s AJ Storr had 23 points in Wisconsin’s last game and that was his fourth 20-point game of the season.

He has scored at least 10 points in each of his last 12 games. Look for him to get going early against the Hoosiers even though the scoring and shooting numbers are slightly better on the road than at home for the St. John’s transfer.
