Coming off a strong performance from all units against Maryland last week, the Cats welcome the Badgers for the last lakeside game of the season. Over the last several decades, this series is incredibly close, reverting to a mean of .500. Wisconsin is also improving, coming off a dominating performance against Purdue.

Wisconsin fans are leary about games in Evanston and the Cats could pull the upset...if they play like they did in College Park.

Prediction:

Lake Mendota 24
Lake Michigan 29
 
24-16 Cats.
Porter no longer has a "pitch count" and has a better game, while the rest of the offense does just enough. Defense delivers bend-but-don't-break, giving up 1 TD drive early, but holding the Badgers to just 3 FGs the rest of the game. Special teams gets another takeaway to shift momentum in the middle.

Da Cats are better than Purdue and Rutgers, whom Wisky destroyed the past two games. Cats are surging and Lausch is improving in leaps and bounds.

Evanston 31
Madison 21
 
point spread moving in favor of WIS the last couple of days. I will stay with my pessimistic prediction scoreline of:

WIS 35
NU 9

and hope for a nice afternoon celebration of wrongness tomorrow. How weird things are now with an 11am kick seeming strange!

Yes Sir. After seeing what WIS has done the past few weeks, I'm pessimistic too..... BUT after seeing us rebound so strongly last week, and remembering how we thoroughly outplayed Bucky last year, I'm drinking the koolaid. CoCo Azema with the 4th quarter pik to seal the deal!

Large Feline Predators 23
Underground Dwelling Opportunists 20

I'm still wondering how Wisconsin has been favored in 34 straight matchups. It's almost like the glamor program jock-sniffing pundits only gave one program credit for rising from the cellar in the 1990s. 🧐🤔

Lake the Cats: 30
Bucky: 28

Badgers 31
Wildcats 16

I need one more solid game before I see consistency in this team. I’m hoping they make me look foolish in this prediction.

Sign me A Child of the Dark Ages…

You are probably right, but 3 games ago, the team looked hopeless. At least we can go to the game without dread
 
While last week’s game was pure joy, I’m afraid this one will be misery. Indiana was able to exploit the Cats’ interior defense, and I am afraid Wisconsin will, too. Bucky 35, Willie 24.
