The 12-seed Oregon Ducks will face 5-seed Wisconsin in the first round of the NCAA Tournament this Friday from SAP Cetner in San Jose, Calif.

Wisconsin (23-10) has opened as an early betting favorite according to Bovada, favored by 1.5 points.

Oregon (23-12) earned the automatic qualifying bid to the Big Dance thanks to an 8-game win streak that culminated Saturday with a 68-48 win over rival Washington in the Pac-12 Tournament Championship game.

Wisconsin reached the semifinals of the Big Ten Tournament, losing Saturday to eventual conference tournament champ Michigan State 67-55.

The Ducks and Badgers have a scheduled tip-off time for 1:30 pm on Friday in San Jose.  The game will be televised on TBS following the conclusion of 4-seed Kansas State and 13-seed UC-Irvine.
