IU-Wisconsin: Game predictions
Once again with IU facing a ranked opponent, it’s a little bit easier to find media outlets predicting the score of Saturday’s game. Here’s what they had to say.
Wisconsin 28, IU 16 – ESPN.com’s Adam Rittenberg: “ I don’t know how much the Hoosiers have left in the tank after back-to-back crushing defeats.”
Wisconsin 31, IU 21 – USA Today: “The formula appears simple for the Badgers: make sure John Clay finds the end zone.”
Wisconsin 31, IU 13 – Adam Hoge, Bucky’s 5th Quarter Blog: “IU has a respectable defense, but Wisconsin will run its offensive gameplan to near perfection for the second week in a row.”
Wisconsin 31, IU 23 – IDS’ Ryan Winn: “After being outscored 38-0 in the final quarter in their last two contests, the question is, will the Hoosiers finish?”
Wisconsin 35, IU 17 – Badger’s Examiner.com: “Last week against Purdue, the Wisconsin defensive line was sound and two players on the line were named as the team’s defensive players of the week…those players will need to step up again against Indiana as the Hoosiers for Wisconsin to avoid the upset.”
Wisconsin by 10 – The Rivalry Esquire blog: “Wisky has an effective downhill run game that’s only been stopped by Ohio State and Iowa, but Bill Lynch’s fiery personality drives his team to overperform against the Badgers.”
Wisconsin 28, IU 14 – BlecherReport.com: (I leave the grammar/spelling errors on purpose) “With an impressive first three quarters against Iowa last week, Indiana, (4-5), are looking to continue that momentum against Wisconsin. Not to mention they must win two of their last three gamse to get into a bowl.”
And here’s your one person to pick the Hoosiers. CBS Sports’ J. Darin Darst is picking IU to win.
What do you think? Does IU play their way back into fighting for a bowl? Or does Wisconsin continue its recent dominance against the Hoosiers?
