For the first time all season, the Wisconsin Badgers lost consecutive games to finish the year. A main reason for the skid has been the drop in production from Big Ten Player of the Year Johnny Davis. Davis, who averaged 19.5 points per game, struggled with an average of 13.5 in the Badgers' final five games. Take the Raiders to give the Badgers a great fight.
Colgate is a legit basketball program that plays out of a weak Patriot conference. We have seen that some of these teams that are exceptions to a bad conference succeed already. Murray and Vermont both covered their lines coming from a similar position. I think we get the same thing here with Colgate. Shooting translates and the raiders have the 11th best effective FG% in the country. They also have the 6th best Assist/Field Goal Made rate. I think they should be able to find good looks and keep it within two possessions against Wisconsin. This Badgers team let lesser opponents hang around all season, I think it happens again. Take the points.
The Badgers are an overrated three seed. They have struggled against worse opponents as they cannot put teams away. The Raiders are rolling as they have won 19 of their last 20 games. They are one of the best three-point shooting teams in the country as they shoot 40.3 percent from downtown. The Raiders are a very balanced team as all five of their starters are averaging double-digit points. This is too many points for the Badgers to be laying. Take the points.
