Neither Wisconsin nor Michigan State has a winning record. Wisconsin fired Paul Chryst after losing to No. 2 Ohio State and No.-24 Illinois. Michigan is 2-4 and 0-3 after winning over Western Michigan and Akron. The Spartans are 7 ½-point home underdogs. Jalen Berger will try to run his hardest game against his former team. He was dismissed from the team last October. Nakia Watson scored both touchdowns against Wisconsin last month. He is the second former Wisconsin running back to beat the Badgers this season.
