Wisconsin has a solid defensive team and 7 times in their 10-game win streak they have held their opponents to 55 or less points.
Maryland has won 3 straight and their only home loss of the season came facing a Virginia team that is the 2nd ranked team in the country.
This is a match up of a Maryland team led by their guards and a Wisconsin team led by their forwards. The top 2 scorers for the Terps are Melo Trimble and Dez Wells. Trimble is a great freshman and in the last 4 games he has been averaging 21 ppg. In the win over Nebraska he had a huge game going for 26 points, grabbing 6 boards, and dishing out 5 assists.
The forward trio of Frank Kaminsky, Sam Dekker and Nigel Hayes are the top 3 scorers for the Badgers. Kaminsky is a 7-footer that is averaging over 17 ppg and 8 rpg and is one of the candidates for the Player of the Year. He has scored at least 21 points in 2 of the last 3 games.
These teams have not met since the 2009 season and the Badgers have won their last 2 games facing the Terps.
The Maryland defense will be tested by a Wisconsin offense that ranks 19th in the nation in team FG%.
