Free Sports Game Preview and Prediction: Wisconsin vs. Northwestern
Saturday, October 19, 2024 12:00 PM
Play: Point Spread: -8/-110 Wisconsin
Wisconsin are 4-2 and have won 2 in a row in blowouts, and Northwestern is not the team they once were years ago. Until they show they have gotten their offense back on track, it’s better to bet against them. Northwestern was wrecked by Indiana, 41-24 and did absolutely nothing against Washington, losing 24-5, this looks to be another beating for the Cats. The Cats are bogged down, having dropped 2 of their last 3 games. Northwestern has a miserable 28.95% 3rd down conversion rate and carries a relatively bloated yards /play for opponents this year at 5.18 /play. Northwestern has had some problems with pass defense this year, while the Badgers have been decent passing the ball, having gotten better with Braedyn Locke in at QB. Wisconsin wins by 13 or more.
