Rutgers vs Wisconsin Prediction
I’m not excited to back Rutgers as much as the next guy, but this is a lot of points for Wisconsin, which has scored 7 or fewer points in two of its last three games. Wisconsin is averaging 10.3 points in its last three games. Now Rutgers doesn’t play defense, and its offense is below average, but it had chances to beat Michigan last week and did upset Maryland on the road. Rutgers has been competitive in recent games.
Still, this has more to do with Wisconsin than anything. The offense appears broken all of a sudden. There’s much better options out there on this Saturday CFB card. It’s still Rutgers and the points or pass for me.
