Third Quarter Report
A win for Wisconsin would move their record above .500, and after three quarters of play they have put themselves in a good position to do so. Sitting at 21-14, they look like the better team, but there is still one more quarter to play.
If Wisconsin keeps playing like this they will start their season with a ‘W.’ Western Michigan, on the other hand, will start their season off on the wrong foot unless they turn things around (and fast).

what to know
The Western Michigan Broncos will open this year’s campaign against the Wisconsin Badgers. Kickoff is scheduled for 9:00 pm ET on Friday at Camp Randall Stadium.
This game could depend on passing touchdowns, as both teams did not perform well in this area last year. Wisconsin was ranked 106th in the nation with 11 touchdowns throughout the season. Western Michigan, on the other hand, was ranked 112th with 13 touchdowns.
Looking back at last season, Wisconsin finished at .500 (7-5), and they are hoping to put together an even more successful campaign this year. Western Michigan, on the other hand, finished with a disappointing 4-8 record.
Looking ahead, the game looks promising for Wisconsin, as the team has a full 24-point lead. They finished last season with a 5-6-1 record against the spread.
Wisconsin should be happy about its advantage on the spread: last season, the team went 7-4 when favored. A bettor who placed a $100 bet on the Wisconsin team losing each of the 12 games played last year would have netted $339.73. Sadly, Western Michigan will begin its season as an underdog, and the team was 0-8 last year.
