Betting on the Wisconsin Badgers 11-0 (-17)

Wisconsin extended their undefeated season to 11-0 after taking down Michigan last week by a score of 24-10, covering as seven-point favorites in the process. The Badgers actually trailed 10-7 into the third quarter, but managed to score the last 17 points to close out the game for the win and cover.

On the game, the Wisconsin outgained the Michigan 325-234, winning the battle on the ground 182-58. The Badgers have outgained and outrushed each of its 11 opponents in the 2017 NCAA football season.

The Badgers is already scheduled in for a Big Ten championship game against Ohio State, and they hope to snag a berth in the College Football Playoff. A loss this week would bury that dream.

Betting on the Minnesota Golden Gophers 5-6 (+17)

Back in Week 10 of the college football season, the Gophers had a performance of the season, blowing out Nebraska in dominating fashion. However, Minnesota followed up in Week 12 with an embarrassing 39-0 loss to Northwestern that still stings. This game against Wisconsin in a must-win, because with a 5-6 overall record they need an immediate victory to be bowl-eligible.

Writer’s Prediction

The Minnesota Golden Gophers gave the Wisconsin Badgers a good game last year at Camp Randall Stadium. They even led 17-10 into the fourth quarter before giving away the last 21 points. While that same history has the Gophers keeping this one close enough to result in a big payday, Minnesota is under a new coaching regime that is not the same as the one they had in those close matches against the Badgers. Pick: The smart money here bets Wisconsin for the win and cover.
