The Badgers are 13.5-point favorites for this one, and though it is the Scarlet Knights' Homecoming, all indications from Wisconsin's recent play suggest they're primed for another multiple-score victory. Here's B5Q's Andrew Rosin on the game in his preview from Wednesday:
"What a difference a weekend makes. Just one week ago, the Wisconsin Badgers were looking at a potential trap game and a Homecoming that could've well been if they couldn't stop Stefon Diggs. In case you missed the fun, Wisconsin got to 52 and Maryland got to 7 with one minute to go. Now everyone's happy.
Saturday at noon, the Badgers look to continue the fun traveling up to Piscataway, N.J., for a morning road battle with Rutgers. Can they continue the whimsy? Read on.
First of all, wide receiver Leonte Carroo is a transcendent talent who's at once Rutgers' best player and had almost 70 percent of his catches go for a first down. Quarterback Gary Nova throws it up, and more often than not, you'll find that Carroo will come down with it. He also has an Abbrederisian level of catches for the Rutgers offense, as his 39 grabs are worth 31 percent of Rutgers' receptions. Carroo is a great player, and Wisconsin cornerback Darius Hillary is going to have a challenge. Not that he didn't handle a similar one last week, but the streak continues.
As it stands, Nova's questionable for the game after suffering a knee injury against Nebraska. If he doesn't go, Chris Laviano will get the start. The redshirt freshman does have some mobility, getting 54 yards rushing in relief against the Huskers. Considering the Badgers' defensive style -- averaging three sacks per game with 13 different players getting one -- an injured drop-back quarterback might just be a sitting duck for defensive coordinator Dave Aranda. And after running back Paul James suffered a torn ACL earlier this season, Rutgers' running game is hovering just under 4 yards per carry. Now it faces a top-15 rush defense."
