Coming into the season, I thought this game could shake out to be a playoff eliminator in a primetime slot with the season on the line. A few months later, it’s fair to say... it’s not quite that.
Both the Wisconsin Badgers’ and Penn State Nittany Lions’ College Football Playoff and New Year’s Six bowl hopes died weeks ago, and primetime is far out of the question with today’s kickoff set for 11 a.m. Still, there is still a lot of intrigue in the betting market for this game.
This game opened with Penn State as an eight-point favorite, with the total opening at 51.
