Wisconsin vs. Oregon Prediction

I love Wisconsin here. I think they keep this game close and keep up with Oregon offensively. I also, think they slow the game down and play slow which will give the Oregon Ducks trouble. I think Badgers have the better players and the weapons to defeat the Ducks. Now, I think the Ducks still win this game at home, but it is a really close game. I think Oregon wins 69-67 against Wisconsin.

Wisconsin vs. Oregon: The Wisconsin Badgers cover the spread (+4.5).
