Wisconsin vs Arizona Prediction

I’m with Arizona here. I get the case to be made for a home underdog and when I back a home dog, I want a team that can make their free throws like Wisconsin can. However, Wisconsin is constantly viewed year after year as a highly talented team yet they perennially underdeliver and I think this could be more of the same this season. I think Arizona’s the far better team that’s been a scoring machine out of the gate and I expect a solid road win for Arizona here.
