How to watch Wisconsin vs High Point in NCAA Tournament: Time, TV, odds
Braeden Carrington explains how Wisconsin Badgers ‘find ways to fight’
Wisconsin guard Braeden Carrington commented on how the Badgers have been ‘taking punches,’ but they also are ‘punching back.’
Fans of the Wisconsin men’s basketball team probably aren’t too pleased with the decision to place the Badgers in the NCAA Tournament’s West Region in Portland.
And even if you weren’t planning on traveling to UW’s first round game against High Point on March 19, making plans to watch the matchup on a weekday won’t be ideal either.

The Badgers (24-10) will play one of the earlier games of the tournament on March 19, tipping off at about 12:50 p.m. Central time. It will be the fourth straight day game for Wisconsin. UW played all three games in the Big Ten Tournament before 2 p.m.
The dynamic backcourt duo of Nick Boyd and John Blackwell got an early start on March Madness, averaging a combined 51 points in the three Big Ten Tournament games this weekend against Washington, Illinois and Michigan.
Though it’s Boyd’s first year with the Badgers, he has significant NCAA Tournament experience including a trip to the Final Four with Florida Atlantic in 2023. He also scored 12 points in a First Four loss to North Carolina last season.
High Point (30-4) has won 59 games over the past two seasons and is making its second consecutive appearance in the tournament bracket. The Panthers have won 14 straight games. Bettors have apparently noticed High Point’s string of victories as the line opened at Wisconsin -12.5 and had dropped to 9.5 late Sunday night.
