So, if there is a knock against the Badgers it is the fact that they have played just one ranked opponent (Nebraska) all season long. The other wins came against the likes of UNLV, Oregon State, Northern Illinois, South Dakota, and Indiana.
Conversely, Michigan State, which owns the nations's second ranked defense, has played some solid opponents in Notre Dame, Ohio State, and Michigan. Yes, the 5-1 Spartans, who have defeated Wisconsin in its last three visits to East Lansing by an average of 15.3 points per game, are by far the Badgers most difficult challenge to date.
Michigan State may not get the win tomorrow evening, but it would be unreasonable to expect another Wisconsin route in this rivalry showdown, which just so happens to represent the Badgers first road game. Take the Spartans plus the seven points.
