Indiana vs. Wisconsin Point Spread, Pick: Hoosiers Haven’t Won in Madison Since

The Indiana vs. Wisconsin point spread had the Badgers as a huge -15.5 to -16 point favorite.

Indiana has not won in Madison since 1998.  That’s a 12-game losing streak against Wisconsin on the road.  And they’ve been held to an average of 54.2 points during that period.

That’s bad news for Indiana as these Badgers lead the nation with just 7.7 turnovers per game while holding teams to just 55.5 points per contest.

The Badgers have only lost two games so far this season and rank 5th in the nation. They are 12-8-1 Against The Spread.  The Hoosiers are 16-6 Straight Up but only 10-11 Against The Spread.

"We know where we are in the standings and where everyone else is," Badgers senior Josh Gasser told the school's official website. "As cliche as it is, you have to take it one game at a time, one possession at a time. If you look further ahead, you're going to slip up. We understand how competitive this league is - every night is going to be a battle and there's a lot of season left. We haven't done anything yet."

So Wisconsin looks poised to beat Indiana once against at home.  But can they cover the 16-point spread?  The betting public thinks not as nearly 75% of those betting this game are backing the Hoosiers.

The Hoosiers have also covered all four of the last games in Wisconsin using the current 15.5-point spread while covering this number in the last eight meetings overall.

It’s not like Indiana is playing bad ball of late either.

We here at Gambling911.com will be all over Indiana +15.5 tonight.
