Ohio State vs. Wisconsin Prediction

The Buckeyes enter play unbeaten with a perfect 7-0 record.

Ohio State pulled off their biggest win of the season over Penn State last weekend.

Ohio State will begin play ranked third in the nation.

Kyle McCord leads the Buckeye offense. He has thrown for 1,937 yards, 12 touchdowns, and one interception.

TreVeyon Henderson leads the Buckeye backfield. He has rushed for 295 yards and two touchdowns. Henderson missed the last couple of weeks but is set to return this weekend.

Marvin Harrison Jr. is the best wide receiver in college football. Harrison Jr. will be a top-five pick in this year's upcoming draft and for a good reason. He has racked up 766 yards and six touchdowns this season.

Ohio State has been outstanding on defense, ranking third in college football in points allowed per game (10.5).

Wisconsin represents a record of 5-2 on the season. They sit atop the Big Ten West.

Wisconsin won a thriller over Illinois last weekend and has won four of their last five games.

Starting quarterback Tanner Mordecai has not played the last two weeks.

Braedyn Locke has stepped in and played well. Locke has thrown for 370 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception.

Running back Braelon Allen leads the team in rushing with 701 yards and eight touchdowns.

Wide receiver Will Pauling has hauled in a team-high 37 receptions for 398 yards and one touchdown.

The Badgers defense ranks 17th in scoring defense (18.3 points per game).

Ohio State vs. Wisconsin Pick

Wisconsin will not be able to keep pace in this game.

This Ohio State defense is the best defense in college football, in my eyes.

We just saw what they did against Penn State and now they face a backup quarterback and far less talented Wisconsin offense.

The Buckeyes offense will be able to put up 25+ points, which will be enough for a cover.
