Best Bets for this Game
Full-Game Side Bet
Insiders Status:
Rating:
The Badgers have lost three of their last five games, but they’ve won two of their last three road games. They don’t have a high-scoring offense, but they played well in recent rod games, scoring at least 25 points in two of their last three road games. They run the ball very well and also have a good passing attack. The Golden Gophers usually play well against the run, but they struggled in recent games, giving up more than 200 rushing yards per game in their last three games. They’ve also struggled against the pass, so expect them to have a hard time slowing down the Badgers in this game. The Golden Gophers have lost three straight games and two of their last three home games. They aren’t very good offensively and they’re barely scoring more than 20 points per game. They don’t throw the ball well, but they have a good running game. The Badgers have done a good job defending the run and pass, and they’re holding opponents and they’re holding opponents under 20 points per game, so expect them to keep Minnesota’s offense in check. Go with Wisconsin to cover the spread.
