Michigan State is set to host the Wisconsin Badgers in a rematch of the Spartans’ one-point loss about a month back — the Spartans’ third loss of the year. Revenge is on the table and Tom Izzo’s team is looking to head into March red-hot for another year.
Wisconsin might be the hottest team in college basketball right now and they have won seven straight games, starting with the victory over the Spartans when it looked like an NCAA Tournament berth was out of the question for 2015-16. In a year when Bo Ryan retired and the Badgers started 9-9, Wisconsin is looking like a dangerous team.
