This Badger team is well-known for its number of experienced players in the rotation. Wisconsin enters the contest as the No. 19 team in the country with a 14-5 overall record and trail the Illini by just two spots in the conference standings. The Badgers have split their last two matchups and don’t travel all that well. On the road this year, the Badgers are .500 with three wins and three losses. I expect to see a hungry Wisconsin squad Saturday at the State Farm Center.
The last matchup between these two teams came on Jan. 8 of last year.
