Wisconsin vs Indiana Game Preview
Why Wisconsin Will Win
Wisconsin might be struggling, but Indiana is really having a few problems.
The offense doesn’t work.
The Hoosiers can shoot just fine on the inside, and they’re careful about moving the ball around to get a good shot – at times – but the threes just aren’t there, the free throw shooting is atrocious, and it’s been a problem to get to 60 points over the last several games.

That’s going to matter late against a Badger team that finds an extra gear on the road.
