Badgers vs Spartans Final Prediction
The Spartans have had a terrible start to the season. Their roster doesn’t seem to be firing at all. The Badgers, meanwhile, have fared only slightly better.
This game should be decided by the quality of the quarterbacks. Traveling games have generally been the stronger suit for Wisconsin, so the Badgers should take this one.
Wisconsin Badgers: -7
