The Notre Dame Fighting Irish take on the Wisconsin Badgers meet Soldier Field on Saturday afternoon.

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are coming off a 27-13 win over Purdue. The offense is led by Jack Coan with 605 yards, to go with 6 touchdowns and 2 interceptions. The rushing attack is led by Kyren Williams with 120 yards while Michael Mayer has caught 16 passes for 201 yards and 3 touchdowns.
The Wisconsin Badgers are coming off a 34-7 win over Eastern Michigan and are 1-1 on the year. The offense is led by Graham Mertz with 326 passing yards and 2 interceptions. The Badger rushing attack is led by Chez Mellusi with 265 rushing yards and two touchdowns while Isaac Guerendo has added 148 rushing yards. The receiving corps is led by Danny Davis with 11 catches for 129 yards.

Notre Dame is 3-1-1 ATS in their last 5 games against the Big Ten and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games overall. Wisconsin is 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games overall and 15-6 ATS in their last 21 games following a bye week. Granted the Irish have not looked impressive out of the gate but you could say neither have the Badgers. Jack Coan will have a little extra playing against this former team. The Badgers can run the ball but struggle to throw the ball, whereas the Irish defense has been better against the run than the pass. This will be a close game so I am taking the points as I see this line as being a little inflated.

PLay on Notre Dame. This is an 8* play.
