The Wildcat have an offense that has been able to do really well and the Badgers have had some issues slowing down a good passing offense. The good news for the Badgers is the Wildcats do not have a good rushing attack which will allow the Badgers to drop back more to protect against the pass. The Badgers offense will do decent and easily run the ball around in this low scoring affair here. Final Score, Wisconsin Badgers win, but do not cover ATS 31-28.
