The Big Ten couldn’t have asked for a better matchup for its inaugural championship game as Wisconsin will take on Michigan State for the conference title tonight at 8:15PM ET.

Despite the Spartans’ incredible victory on a Hail Mary pass to beat the Badgers in the closing seconds back in October, Wisconsin is currently favored by 9.5 in the rematch. The over/under total for this championship game is currently sitting at 54.5 points.

Wisconsin has won 6 consecutive games when playing as a neutral field favorite and they have also won 25 of the last 27 games when playing on artificial turf. Wisconsin has won 21 of the last 24 games coming off a game with one or less turnovers and they are only allowing an average of 12 points a game on defense over the last three games.

Our resident handicapper Vegas Vic of Vegas Vic Sports.net likes the Badgers -9.5 tonight. Also, be sure to check out Johnny Clutch Sports for more great picks, odds and betting information.
