Ohio State Vs. Wisconsin: Badger Fans Not Holding Out Much Hope

SB Nation’s Bucky’s 5th Quarter makes a gloomy prediction for this weekend’s Wisconsin-Ohio State game:

People make a lot of the Badgers’ home record as well as their record in night games, but Wisconsin has actually lost two of its last three home night games, one of which was against Ohio State. It’s going to take more than one of the most raucous crowds Camp Randall Stadium has ever seen to beat these Buckeyes.
We documented the Badgers’ struggles against ranked teams under head coach Bret Bielema both before and after their loss to Michigan State two weeks ago. Specifically, heading into a contest against the top-ranked team in the land, Bielema is winless against top-10 opponents. While Wisconsin will have the crowd on its side in a nationally televised night game and should be playing with nothing to lose, it is still hard to pick the Badgers to win the type of game they have consistently struggled with.
