Maryland Terrapins vs. Wisconsin Badgers Betting Preview
Maryland Must Make Shots
The Maryland Terrapins have had some key players on the college basketball injury report all season long, and that’s one reason why this team has struggled. Maryland does appear to be pretty healthy ahead of this game, but they will still have some work to do.
The Terrapins have not been a good offensive team this season, scoring less than 70 points per game. Jahmir Young is one of the top college basketball players in this league, but he hasn’t gotten enough help.
Maryland is allowing just 65 points per game this season, and that is one area that has been solid all season long.
Badgers Need to Defend
The Wisconsin Badgers spent some time at the top of the college basketball standings in the Big Ten Conference this season, but they just weren’t good enough to stay there. Wisconsin not only struggled on the road this season, but they couldn’t even win at home.
The Badgers allowed nearly 70 points per game this season, and they struggled against some of the top teams in this league. Wisconsin is typically a team that likes to play slow and physical, but that strategy just hasn’t worked against many opponents.
Guard AJ Storr is leading the team with 16.2 points per game this season, and he has been a nice addition to this roster. Wisconsin should be able to score points in the paint in this game, but they will also need to make shots from the perimeter.
Maryland Terrapins vs Wisconsin Badgers Betting Picks
The Maryland vs Wisconsin odds on Thursday suggest this could be one of the top NCAA basketball games today. These two NCAA basketball teams didn’t live up to the hype in the regular season, but now is another chance to pick up some big wins.
The winner of this game will see their odds to win March Madness increase a bit, but none of these teams will be able to go on a deep run. Maryland just picked up a win on Wednesday night, but their run stops here.
This will be a big game on the NCAAB schedule, but Wisconsin will cover the spread in this game, and the over will hit.
- Pick 1: Over 132.5
- Pick 2: Wisconsin Badgers -3.4
