Rutgers vs Wisconsin prediction, picks, odds
Rutgers is a 1.5-point favorite according to Action Network as of Oct. 11.
O/U: Over 44 (-111), Under 44 (-111)
Moneyline: Rutgers -123, Wisconsin +103
Prediction: I think Rutgers will bounce back well from the Nebraska loss and take care of business against Wisconsin. The Badgers’ run defense is mediocre, which clearly favors 1-2 punch of Kyle Monangai and Sam Brown for Rutgers. Wisconsin also could be considerably depleted at wide receiver and it’s already playing with its backup quarterback. I don’t think this will necessarily be a blowout, but I think the Scarlet Knights should still earn a relatively comfortable win. Rutgers 31, Wisconsin 17
