The only scheduled meeting of the regular season between Indiana and the 18th Wisconsin will be on CBS on Saturday. Wisconsin (11-4, 3-2 Big Ten) comes in after dropping two straights while Indiana (10-6, 1-4) is on the three-game slide.

Indiana has lost six of its past nine games since a 7-0 start that saw the Hoosiers move up to 10th in the AP Top 25. Lost in Iowa last week. Starting His Points His guard Xavier Johnson has also been sidelined after foot surgery, leaving the Hoosiers in an injury-induced funk.

Defense was the main cause of Indiana’s 85-66 loss to Penn State on Wednesday. Perimeter defenses can also be an issue against a Wisconsin team with a few snipers. Both Chucky Hepburn and Conor Essegian are on his 4.5 attempts per game for the Badgers, with him shooting over 45% from beyond the arc.

But Wisconsin couldn’t overcome the absence of top scorer Tyler Wall in a 69-65 loss to Michigan State on Tuesday. Wall injured his ankle last week against Minnesota and missed two games in a row. The 6-foot-9 senior is averaging 13.2 points and 6.4 rebounds per game.

Wisconsin won both meetings by five points each last season, but when the Badgers escaped Assembly Hall 74-69 last season, it was mostly due to Johnny Davis and Brad Davison’s 51-point combined. Without Wall, Wisconsin will need a significant contribution from their entire roster to get another big road win this time around.
