The Wisconsin Badgers lost to Alabama in Week 1, but came away from that game with plenty of positives. They are at home this Saturday hosting one of the minnows of the MAC, and I think they should steamroll the Miami OH RedHawks.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Previous History - The Badgers were undefeated at home last season, and they've covered the spread in 11 of their last 16 home games. The RedHawks have lost 22 of their last 25 games..

2. Joel Stave - The senior quarterback threw more picks (10) than he did touchdowns (9) last season. He looked pretty good against Alabama though, throwing for 228 yards with a pair of TDs and one interception on 26-of-39 passing. He appears poised to have a big game against an inferior opponent here today.

3. X-Factor - The Badgers are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.


Selection: This is a play on the Wisconsin Badgers (10*)
