Featured Game: Wisconsin Badgers (+20.5, 46.5) vs. Alabama Crimson Tide
Time: 12pm est/9am pst
Television: ABC
Alabama absolutely buried Wisconsin last season 42-10, so for any returning upperclassmen this sets up as a revenge spot for the Badgers. The problem is, Alabama comes in motivated too. They were embarrassed in Week 1 against Florida State and while they beat Louisiana-Monroe 73-0 last week, that tune-up means very little.
Wisconsin is 2-0, but their wins came against Miami (OH) and Middle Tennessee. That’s a MAC team and a C-USA team, so we don’t have a real barometer yet. This is a major step up in class.
The situational angle is interesting: Alabama has Georgia on deck, which screams lookahead spot. But Kalen DeBoer is already feeling the heat in Tuscaloosa, and he can’t afford a flat effort. Expect him to demand a strong defensive performance after the Tide gave up 31 to Florida State. He knows a blowout win here helps calm the noise.
On the other side, Wisconsin’s offense has been underwhelming. The Badgers only managed 17 points against Miami (OH). Freshman QB Danny O’Neil now gets thrown into the fire against a loaded Alabama defense — this could get ugly.
Ty Simpson has been steady for Alabama with no turnovers, and while DeBoer will have him dialed in, don’t expect the Tide to open up the full playbook with Georgia looming. That means a more methodical approach and a game plan built around suffocating defense.
The number tells the story: this opened at 47.5 and has already been bet down. We agree with the move.
Pick: Under 46.5
