Wisconsin vs. Western Kentucky Analytics

There is not a lot of information in this series, as the teams met only one time, a Wisconsin 24-6 win in 2001, when Barry Alvarez and Jack Harbaugh were still coaching these respective programs.

Wisconsin is a legitimate Big 10 title contender, and has a real shot of making the college football playoff if they can win out in 2018. Western Kentucky is not nearly in as fortunate a position, as the needle is trending down on the WKU program under Mike Sanford, who scrapped the highly successful spread offense for a more traditional approach, and that has slowed down production at WKU immensely.

Wisconsin likely rolls at home Friday night, as this should not be much of a battle.
