Wisconsin vs. Maryland: Game matchup
While coach Luke Fickell and the Badgers come off their first loss of the season by a 38-14 final against Alabama in Tuscaloosa, they are 9.5-point favorites to take down the Terps and get back in the win column. Wisconsin has made the program’s typical kind of mark with the nation’s No. 4 run defense (46.3 ypg), but an offense ranking No. 88 or worse in total yardage (No. 103), rushing (No. 91) and passing (No. 88).

The Terrapins have been down this road before with an encouraging start that often gives way to a tougher finish once the Big Ten schedule gets bumpy. Maryland is 3-0 with wins over Florida Atlantic (39-7), Northern Illinois (20-9) and Towson (44-17). Maryland’s keys have boiled down to takeaways and red-zone stands, ranking No. 2 nationally in red-zone D (42.9%) and No. 2 in turnover margin (+2.00). The Badgers have the personality to challenge both stats.
