Key Storylines
- The Hoosiers (10-0) continue their push for a perfect regular season and a spot in the Big Ten Championship. Their dominant offense has averaged 44.5 points per game. They also have a stingy defense that is averaging 12.1 points per game allowed.
- Indiana’s QB Fernando Mendoza is in Heisman Trophy contention. He enters this game with 2,342 passing yards, 26 touchdowns, and 5 interceptions so far. His efficient play is a major factor in the Hoosiers’ rise to national prominence.
- Wisconsin’s offense has struggled mightily. The Badgers are scoring just 12.6 points per game and averaging 255.6 total yards per game. Their last win was a 13-10 upset over Washington, came more from defensive grit than offensive firepower.
- Indiana needed a late comeback in its last game against Penn State. They got an incredible late touchdown catch to win that game and the Hoosiers will try to win more convincingly this time around.
Quarterback Play
Mendoza has been rock solid, completing over 70% of his passes and throwing 26 touchdowns with only 5 interceptions. He has been great in the fast-paced system of Curt Cignetti. Wisconsin’s quarterback situation has been a complete disaster. The Badgers were led in passing by a punter last week, who threw for just 24 yards. Someone has to step up through the air for the Badgers.
Betting Trends
- Indiana is 6-4 against the spread going into this game.

Wisconsin vs Indiana Model Projection

Final Thoughts
Indiana should be able to roll over Wisconsin in their matchup on Saturday. Indiana’s offense is hard to keep in check, while Wisconsin would just be happy to get 25 passing yards from a player after what we saw last week. I’ll lay the big number with the Hoosiers here, as they should move to within one game of an undefeated 12-game regular season.
