Marquette Golden Eagles vs Wisconsin Badgers Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 12/06/25

Wisconsin welcomes in-state rival Marquette as it looks to build on a recent 85-73 win over Northwestern. The Golden Eagles are coming off a win of their own, defeating Valparaiso 75-72 in overtime. Marquette has struggled to start the season, averaging 81.4 points per game while giving up 74.2. The Badgers are slightly better, averaging 86.9 points per game while allowing 73.5.

The Badgers will lean on their top scoring duo, Nick Boyd (20.9 ppg) and John Blackwell (19.9 ppg), to set the tone. Marquette’s defense has been inconsistent, but Wisconsin’s offense has also shown stretches of uneven play. Marquette will lean on Chase Ross (20.3 ppg) and Nigel James Jr. (12.3 ppg), and perimeter shooting that is capable of keeping them in the game. Wisconsin is allowing opponents to shoot 35.8% from deep this season, and that’s something Marquette will look to take advantage of in this matchup. Despite its up-and-down start, Marquette has kept all of its losses within single-digits aside from a matchup with Indiana. Look for the Golden Eagles to give it their all and keep this game close — making them my best bet of the day.
