Wisconsin Faces Stern Test In Big Ten Opener
On Saturday, the Wisconsin Badgers will travel all the way to the West coast for a conference game for the first time as they get set for this Wisconsin vs USC matchup from Southern California. Wisconsin is 2-1 so far this season but was beaten at home by Alabama in their only real test of the season thus far. Fortunately for Wisconsin, this week's game against USC might be a better matchup for them than that game against Alabama was, given that Wisconsin's strength is running the ball and USC's weakness is stopping the run. Still, the Badgers will need to find a way to throw more effectively on passing downs if they want to escape USC with a win.
USC Looks to Bounce Back From Michigan Debacle
Last week saw the USC Trojans lose for the first time this season, as they fell on the road against the Michigan Wolverines in their first Big Ten conference game since joining the league. The Trojans simply could not stop the Michigan rushing attack when they needed to in that game, allowing several long running plays that either scored touchdowns or led to scores later in those drives. This week, the USC run defense will be tested again by a Wisconsin team that loves keeping the ball on the ground whenever possible.
Wisconsin vs USC Best Bet
USC should be able to come out with a win in this Wisconsin vs USC matchup to get their first conference victory as members of the Big Ten. But whether they will be able to win with enough margin to cover the spread in this game is another story. We expect Wisconsin to be able to do enough on the ground to limit the number of possessions in this game and for the Badgers to cover the number as underdogs even if they can't win outright at the Coliseum.
