Let's not be fooled by Michigan's win yesterday, IL is a team with no heart that didn't show up and quit in the 1h.

Michigan is a bad basketball team.  A really bad basketball team.  Wisconsin is a good basketball team.  A really good basketball team. 

Look for Wisconsin to make a statement to the selection committee; it starts today against a MAC level talent Michigan team.  This one gets ugly early; don't be fooled and take the points.

Looking forward to EMU grad "MichFan" telling me how stupid of a bet this is....this is Michigan fer god's sake!!

lol

The only thing i worry about is wisconsin getting a bit complacent in this one when they're up 20 or so in the second half. I still remember that indiana game when they were up 33 and didnt even cover the 16 because bo ryan sat everyone. That was against creen, who he hates, so it worries me how early he will call off the dogs in this one vs. a coach that he actually respects....

Teasing wisky should be safe. I cannot tell you how often this season Wisconsin has given up 15-20 point leads by just killing clock and getting out of rhythm.... i think i might hit 1h instead of FG for this reason

Exactly my worry also, wisky doesn't always look to embarass teams, they were up 33 vs. indiana and just went into clock kill mode and fucked the spread.

Contrarian view would say that michigans depth (lack of), and the fact that they're playing a back to back on less than 24 hours rest makes more sense to bet the full game. But like we both worry about, will bo ryan call off the dogs in the second half to save the embarassment.

a valid concern, but Wisconsin knows they need to win this tournament in impressive style to grab a #1 seed. 

They knew it against OSU.  They emphasized making a statement.  They went out and won by 20+ in Columbus.  No calling off the dogs there.  I expect them to keep their foot on the gas the entire game, the entire tournament.

wisky doesnt play d at times....i know exactly how u feel with them giving up leads as they blew a 30 point lead to indiana to lose cover and blew mich st last week after leading by 15 with under 4 to win by 7...that is two notable losses i had with them and i know i had a couple more

Meh , i dont trust wisconsin with big leads, that indiana melt still haunts me, and as others have noted they've done that multiple times this year with leads. Gl with your bet, too many points for me.

Wisky lucky to be up five. Questionable officiating has helped. First five minutes of second half will be key.
