1. Wisconsin blows out BYU from the beginning

The Badgers have struggled to gain big leads out of the gates against their first two overmatched opponents. In their first game against Western Kentucky, they only led 7-0 at the end of the first quarter. It was even worse against New Mexico last week. Wisconsin actually trailed 7-3 at the end of the first and only took a three-point lead going into the half. Of course, they picked it up and won each game by 31 points.

That won’t be the case against BYU. Even with the Iowa game looming next week, the Badgers will look to put this game away as soon as possible so they can rest up. Taylor will help lead the charge with Hornibrook pitching in on key third downs to spark the offense.

Wisconsin will easily cover the spread (22 points) and then some, as they will make a statement to the rest of the NCAA after dropping a spot in each of the last two AP polls. On Wisconsin!
