Leatherneck Nation

 AT 

Opponent: FBS University of Wisconsin Badgers

Game Time: Saturday, September 12 at 6:15 PM

Location: Camp Randall Stadium, Madison, WI

Last Year: Wisconsin finished 4-8 overall with a 2-7 record in the Big 10

This Year: The FBS games didn't fully get started until this last weekend, so UW has played one game so far, on Sunday against #4 Notre Dame, at Lambeau Field. The Badgers started off pretty well, only down by a FG at halftime, but Notre Dame exploded in the second half to come away with a 41-13 victory.

History: The Leathernecks and Badgers have met up three times, all at Madison, and all being won by Wisconsin. 31-13 in 1991, 34-10 in 2006, and 37-3 in 2014.

Projections: Massey Ratings gives us a 0% chance of a win, with a predicted score of 45-7. ESPN says we have about a 1% chance (but to be fair, idk if their predictor ever shows 0%). Considering how we played against Illinois State, I don't see us coming away with a win...but of course, that's not usually the point with FBS games. Let's have a great day in Madison (one of the best college towns), have no major injuries, come away with a big check, and go beat up on Morehead State at Family weekend.
 
 

Wisconsin opened as a 36.5-point favorite, and that has now bumped up to 37.5.

The total now sits at 50.5 points.
