The Badgers play the Washington State Cougars on Saturday and if you’re looking to do some last-minute betting research, you’re in luck! We’ll give you the latest point spread, money line odds and over/under number, as well as the information you’ll need to make the smartest bet.
The game starts at 6:30PM and can be seen on ABC.
Wisconsin is coming off of a 38-17 Week 1 win over Buffalo at home. In the contest, the Badgers’ top two running backs Braelon Allen and Chez Mellusi combined for 298 yards and four touchdowns over 30 carries.
Washington State defeated Colorado State 50-24 with their quarterback Cameron Ward compiling an impressive 451 passing yards and three touchdowns while also leading the team with 40 rushing yards and a score on the ground.
Both teams will be in for a tougher test in Week 2 and this is how BetMGM sees the game going:
- Point spread: Wisconsin -6
- Money line: Wisconsin -225 / Washington State +180
- Over-under: 58
It’s unclear exactly what injuries each team are dealing with but here are their Week 1 injury reports:
Wisconsin:
- Jordan Turner – Linebacker : Suspended for first half Saturday (Targeting)
- Cornerbacks Michael Mack and Max Lofy
- Wide receivers Trech Kekahuna and Tommy McIntosh
- Tight ends Riley Nowakowski, Cam Large, Angel Toombs and Jack Pugh
- Safety Jackson Trudgeon
- Center Jake Renfro
- Outside linebacker Aaron Witt
- Offensive lineman Peyton Lange
- Defensive lineman Isaiah Mullens
Washington State:
- Offensive lineman Christian Hilborn
- Offensive lineman Fa’alili Fa’amoe
- Wide receiver Josh Kelly
- Linebacker Ahmad McCullough
- Safety Sam Lockett
- Defensive back Tanner Moku
- Defensive back Adrian Wilson
- Wide receiver Leyton Smithson
This game has revenge written all over it with a Badgers football team that feels like they underperformed in their opener. Washington State’s offense will likely give Wisconsin’s defense some issues, but with the Badgers’ running attack paired with their new “Air Raid” offense, I think that Wisconsin covers on the road this weekend.
Prediction: 34-21 Wisconsin
