Wisconsin at Iowa prediction: Odds, expert picks, names to know, betting trends, and stats

Wisconsin heads to Kinnick Stadium with a 5-3 record and winners of three of their last four games.

Last week they had a tough battle with the undefeated Penn State, but ultimately lost 28-13. Early in the season against Alabama, they lost starting quarterback Tyler Van Dyke. A few weeks later they lost starting running back Chez Mellusi.

However, Braedyn Locke and Tawee Walker have stepped up massively this season and led the Badgers to a successful season.

Iowa’s season has been up and down, but the Hawkeyes are 5-3 and 3-2 in Big Ten play this season. They are coming off a 40-14 beatdown of Northwestern this week but lost starting quarterback Cade McNamara.

Brendan Sullivan looked solid in his stead. In all reality, the Hawkeyes only need a serviceable quarterback under center. With running back Kaleb Johnson having such a strong season, the Hawkeyes should continue to pound the rock.

Betting Insights and Predictions

NBC Sports Bet’s Brad Thomas (@MrBradThomas) is leaning toward Wisconsin +3:
“Winning in Kinnick Stadium is a tall order for the best teams. Wisconsin is not a team of world-beaters, but I think they match up well against Iowa. Iowa this season has struggled against the run. With Walker playing great football right now, that should make life easier for Locke under center. I’m not sure I fully trust Sullivan, which means Wisconsin will likely stack the box and make Johnson obsolete.”
