The over is 6-2 in Wisconsin’s last eight games overall. The over is 9-4 in Wisconsin’s last 13 games against the Big Ten. The underdog is 16-5 against the spread in the last 21 meetings played between the two teams. The underdog is 6-2 in the last eight meetings played between the two teams in MIchigan 

This is going to be a close battle all the way to the end and I wouldn’t be shocked if Wisconsin has enough defense to pull off the upset. I will take the points though to be safe with Wisconsin. Back Wisconsin against the spread.
