The No. 12 Wisconsin Badgers will try to get back on the right side of the scoreboard tonight when they take on the Minnesota Golden Gophers at Williams Arena in Minneapolis, MN. This Big Ten showdown is scheduled to get underway at 8:30 p.m. ET with coverage via the Big Ten Network.
With Sunday’s loss to Michigan State, the Badgers have lost two of their last three games (the other being vs. Oregon on Feb. 22, 77-73 OT). It’s not the kind of momentum that the Badgers want to take into the conference tournament. Wisconsin crushed the Golden Gophers at home back in January 80-59. However, the Badgers have struggled on the road this season, going just 5-5. They had won their last three road games prior to the loss to the Spartans. As for Minnesota, the season has been a mixture of good and bad, with wins against ranked teams like then-No. 20 Michigan and No. 15 Oregon, but they’ve also lost more than they’ve won in Big Ten play (7-11). But they may have some momentum coming into this game, having won three of their last five games, the last being a 67-65 win over Nebraska on the road.

Our Minnesota Golden Gophers vs Wisconsin Prediction
If the two recent losses by the Badgers have you worried, don’t be. There is no shame in losing to a very good Michigan State team on the road. Prior to that, they’d won six of their previous seven games, five by double digits. Minnesota has been up and down all season and has lost its last four home games. So, expecting them to pick up their game and compete against a good Wisconsin team may be asking too much, even at home.
