Wisconsin vs Detroit Prediction
Detroit comes into this matchup on a three game losing streak and they have allowed 80+ points in two of those three games. The Titans are shooting just 41.8% from the field this year and they will be on the road for this game. Wisconsin has lost three of their last four games, but they are scoring nearly 82 points per game this year. The Badgers have had a very solid start to the season, but we haven’t seen them blow too many teams out, so I will take the points with Detroit here.
