Only two more quarters stand between Wisconsin and the win they were favored to collect coming into this evening. A victory is still up for grabs for either team after two quarters, but Wisconsin is up 10-7 over Western Michigan.
If Wisconsin keeps playing like this they’ll be starting off their season with a ‘W’. On the other hand, Western Michigan will be starting their season off on the wrong foot unless they turn things around (and fast).

Looking back to last season, Wisconsin finished on the right side of .500 (7-5), and they’re hoping to kick off an even more successful campaign this year. On the other hand, Western Michigan finished with a dismal 4-8 record.
Looking ahead, the game looks promising for Wisconsin, as the team is favored by a full 24 points. They finished last season with a 5-6-1 record against the spread.
Wisconsin ought to be happy about their advantage in the spread: the team was a solid 7-4 when favored last season. A bettor who placed a $100 dollar bet on them to lose every one of the 12 games they played last year would have netted $339.73. Sadly, Western Michigan will open their season as the underdog, and the team was 0-8 as such last year.
