3. No. 13 Wisconsin at Michigan

A game that has lost a lot of luster in these last couple of weeks, Wisconsin will travel to Michigan to take on the Wolverines, who are fresh off yet another disappointing loss to Indiana.

This will be the first game in over three weeks for Wisconsin and they will (likely) be without starting quarterback Graham Mertz, who is still following COVID-19 protocols after testing positive following the Badgers’ win over Illinois.

Despite missing two games, Wisconsin has a slight path to the playoff that would require that they win the rest of the games on their schedule, including a potential matchup with Ohio State in the Big Ten title game. To do that, they will need to escape Ann Arbor with a win against a Michigan team that badly needs a win after the past two weeks that they have had.
