10* Oddsmaker Mistake Play
(NCAAB) Virginia Tech vs. Wisconsin, 03/16/2017 5:40 PM, Score: 74 - 84
Point Spread: -5.50 | -110.00 Wisconsin (Home)
Result: Win
Wisconsin knows how to win in March and I like them tonight minus this small number. The Badgers were the second-best team in the Big 10. They received little respect from the committee and oddsmakers alike, because they are better than an No. 8 seed and this spread is too light. This team still has quite a bit of Final Four experience and one of the best big men in the country in Ethan Happ. He will pose a matchup nightmare for the Hokies, who also tend to turn the ball over against good defensive teams. Wisconsin pulls away in the 2nd half and wins by double figures.
