ANALYSIS: Wisconsin has been one of the more pleasant surprises in the country this season, thanks in no small part to the emergence of Johnny Davis as one of the best players in the nation. The Badgers have been good on the road too, covering the spread in 7 of 8 games away from home. Nebraska is languishing in last place, but has been feisty at home. Look for Wisconsin to get back to its winning ways and cover again on the road.

ANALYSIS: Purdue won the first matchup between this two, holding off Iowa 77-70 at Mackey Arena. The Boilermakers had a great deal of trouble with the Hawkeyes' press and Iowa was without the Big Ten's leading scorer, Keegan Murray. Purdue is going to need to play like it did at Illinois to keep this close, but the odds don't favor that.

ANALYSIS: Maybe a break due to COVID-19 will be a blessing in disguise for Michigan. The Wolverines have been one of this season's biggest disappointments coming off an Elite Eight appearance a year ago. This season, they are just 7-6 and heading to Champaign to face the red-hot Illini. Illinois has won ten of its last 11 and they are doing so without stud G Andre Curbelo. This doesn't seem like the place you go to get your problems fixed.

ANALYSIS: No conference has been hit harder by COVID-19 than the Atlantic 10, which has seen a very high number of its teams have to pause and a cancel or postpone games. The Bonnies played their first game in a month on Tuesday and showed a lot of rust in an overtime win at La Salle. Now, VCU visits as one of the hottest teams in the league and looking to stay in first place against the preseason conference favorite. I like the Rams to keep rolling.

ANALYSIS: Purdue has one of the most explosive offenses in the country when its outside shots are falling, but that has not been happening as much lately. The Boilermakers have yet to beat a major-conference team by this many points unless that opponent was down multiple starts. Purdue is capable of covering this spread -- in fact, they are due -- but I'm not buying it until I see it.
