According to mybookie.ag, the Badgers are listed as 9.5-point underdogs. DiNardo believes Wisconsin should obviously be favored.
The other surprise to some may be No. 5 Purdue. The Boilermakers are getting better as the year goes on and QB David Blough taking over as the full-time signal caller has done wonders.
Purdue is certainly a team on the rise and Michigan-Wisconsin is going to be a treat Saturday night.
