Oregon vs Wisconsin Prediction
The current betting odds have Oregon listed as a 14 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Oregon has looked great in their games this season with their 10-0 record overall and their 7-0 conference record which has them right at the top of the Big Ten with the best record in the nation. They are tied at the top of the conference with Indiana who is also 10-0 overall, but Oregon is also ranked as the best team in the nation and has been for weeks. They are 4-0 in their road games and they are coming off another big win in their last one, beating Maryland by over 20 points. Meanwhile, Wisconsin has looked good in their games this season with their 5-4 record overall, but their 3-3 conference record has them in the middle of the Big Ten. They don't really have a chance to make the playoffs either and they haven't looked great lately. They are coming out of their bye week so they have had extra time to prepare for this one, but they are also coming off a 42-10 loss to Iowa in their last one before going into their bye week. Oregon has been great on defense all season and a majority of their wins this year have been by over 20 points. They have struggled to cover some of the larger spreads over 20 points, but this number is low enough for them to cover since they have the defense to keep Wisconsin off the board and their offense will run away to another win by over 20 points. The best way to place a bet here is on Oregon to cover the spread in this game.

Notable Quotes
“We didn't play as well as we could, there's not doubt about that. I don't think our guys had a lack of prep. But we didn't play as well as we can. I'd say every game this year I've felt like we've grown. This one, we've got some growing moments, so we're going to learn from it.” - Dan Lanning after his team’s win against Maryland in their last game.
“He's the one that has all the yards. But I think it's got to fall on the shoulders of that offensive line. I’m not sure there weren’t some pretty good seams and holes in there that he had an opportunity to take advantage of.” - Luke Fickell after his team’s loss against Iowa in their last game.
