A simple “blind” test: One team is riding an eight-game outright win streak, the other has dropped five of six. You’d think the hotter team would be favored, no? But the slumping Badgers are the team laying points. Before they headed in different directions, Minnesota extended Wisconsin into overtime, falling by two. The Golden Gophers can win here straight-up. An ATS victory is more likely, and it would be their fifth in six visits to Madison.
