According to college basketball insider Jon Rothstein, Wisconsin will face Virginia out of the ACC to begin the 2023 Fort Myers Tip-Off. West Virginia and SMU will face off on the other side of the bracket. Winners and losers of those matchups will play in a consolation and final round game.
The 2023 Fort Myers Tip-Off will be played from Nov. 20-22.

Last season, Wisconsin started strong and climbed all the way to No. 14 on the AP Poll. Unfortunately, the Badgers scuffled through the heart of the B1G scheduled and finished 20-15 overall and 9-11 in conference play, finishing 11th in the league standings.
