  • WISKY -9 vs Illinois Mens NCAA Basketball

    The Line is at 9 with the Badgers serving up some
    serious Home Court Advantage.

    Illinois is flying high after beating 5th ranked Michigan
    and are beginning to believe they can be good.

    A Look at Wisky

    133-10 at the Kohl center under Bo Ryan
    (2 of those L came from the Illini)

    Wisky is 51-0 vs unranked Big 10 teams at home.

    These team feeds and breathes on Defense, the badgers
    carry a 5 ranking on defense. They have held 10 teams
    to 50 points or less this year. Wisky plays a smothering
    defense that will not allow dribble penetration.

    They are Excellent defensive rebounding team, but on
    the Offensive glass they rank 278 in getting offensive
    rebounds.

    Badgers love rain from above and this team will provide that from 3 point land. Last game they put up 27 three pointers vs M State.

    Wisky has some weakness that I see

    In sweeping the Offensive glass they rank 278th

    In getting to the foul line 257th

    In forcing turnovers 227th.

    But they are at home and will have 17,000 crazy
    ass Badger fans.

    A Look at Illinois

    Bad road team but they did go on the road and win
    a couple lately and are getting better.

    Illinois coming off a brutal nail bitter to get by
    the 5th ranked spartans.

    Illinois has found its leader and it starts with
    Demetri McCamey Jr guard who has really found his
    game. 22 points 11 assist last game. This kid
    will make things happen vs Wiskys in your face
    defense.

    Wisky will try to over play him with two pressure
    and it wont work vs this skilled player.

    Illinois is loaded with weapons of their own

    DJ Richardson Fr Guard leads the Big 10 in 3 point
    accuracy at 48 per cent. Pure talent

    I think 9 points is a bit high and expect Illinois
    to be in this game.

    Both teams play good defense and this game
    will be a war. I just dont think Wisky matches up well
    with Illinois in this game. On Paper maybe but on the
    court I am thinking Illinois is Faster than the Badgers
    and this will open up the transition game.

    Wisky 63- Illinois 58 (covering the 9)

    Good luck all

    I agree.

    Weird line thats a bit high but I think the peception of Wiscy is higher based on what they did to MSU last week.

    The only way to look at this game is taking the points but may be a good pass too as I hate games that "look" to easy.

      Illinois covers the 9 and wins at Wisky

      This team is really coming together I have been
      saying that more and more last 5 games.

      To snap a 51-0 streak vs the badgers vs unranked
      Big ten teams says volumes of where this team is.

      UnRanked.....

      Beat Clemson, Vandy, # 5 Michigan State, # 13 Wisky
      and still no look see from the voters of the polls

      What the hell do they know, Illinois is a top 25
      team and factor that into your stats when you capp them

      Illinois is playing for its NCAA life, doing a bang up
      job vs the top 20 so far this year in my eyes.

      Look for this young talented team to take this to the
      next level of play......

        As a Side Bar to that game.....

        Illinois is the first un ranked big 10 team to win at the
        Kohl Center in Wisky coach Bo Ryans 9 year career.

        This unranked team is tied for 1st in the Big 10

        Purdue up next

          yeah, I chickened out and played that stupid ML parlay with Wiscy. Didn't matter much since MSU lost too.

          2 big 10 home teams losing on the same night...That does not happen much!

          But I do like Illinois and Purdie a lot better.

          Nice win.
