Wisconsin is way down from previous seasons. The Badgers also have a cluster injury problem in their backcourt. Among the Badgers who won't be playing is starting guard Brevin Pritzl, who has a head injury.

The Badgers haven't played well on the road going 3-9-2 ATS in their last 14 away contests. Rutgers, by contrast, has covered six of its last seven home games.

Rutgers is in stop the pain mode having lost three in a row. This is a good spot for the Scarlet Knights to end that losing skid.
