Ohio State vs. Wisconsin 2012 viewing guide: Preview, TV schedule and more

Wisconsin looks to knock off the unbeaten Ohio State Buckeyes in a game with surprisingly few postseason implications. All-day-long Saturday coverage right here. Follow @SBNationCFB

Jeff Hanisch-US PRESSWIRE

For a game late in the regular season between conference rivals at the top of their league division, Saturday's contest between the Wisconsin Badgers and Ohio St. Buckeyes doesn't mean a whole lot. But that doesn't mean it won't be fun.

The Buckeyes, who are a perfect 10-0 this year, are not eligible for the postseason. Meanwhile, the Badgers, who are right behind them in the Big Ten Leaders Division, have already clinched a spot in the Big Ten Championship Game.

But there still could be plenty of drama in this one. For one thing, knocking off an undefeated team on Senior Day could be the perfect way for running back Montee Ball to end his collegiate career in Madison. Ball has run for 16 touchdowns this season, and could also set the NCAA rushing scores record.

Ohio State is just one of four unbeaten teams left in the country, and at the very least, is looking to go into the offseason having made a statement. The Buckeyes are the eighth-best rushing team in the country, thanks largely to Braxton Miller and Carlos Hyde. They have run in 13 touchdowns each this season.

Game time, TV channel: 3:30 p.m. ET, ESPN2; ABC
