4. Wisconsin (at Northwestern)

Who would have thought that Wisconsin’s toughest tests this season would be Northwestern and Indiana?

It certainly appears as if Wisconsin is one of the best teams in the conference. Through two games, they’ve been great on offense and elite on defense.

If Northwestern is for real, this is the game they have to show it in. The Wildcats have also been good on defense, but the offense definitely has some weaknesses that the Badger defense can exploit.

Still, a low scoring ground game may actually be what’s best for Northwestern. The Cats need to keep the ball away from the explosive Badger offense and a ground and pound style is what’s best. It also keeps Peyton Ramsey’s throws down, which is also good as he’s been prone to interceptions throughout his career.
