Wisconsin vs Illinois State Game Preview

Why Illinois State Will Win

The Redbirds aren’t going to bring much with the offense, but the defense will get after it.

They’ve got enough in place to make a few plays behind the line, the D should once again be good at bending without breaking, and the front isn’t going to be a total pushover against the run.

Why Wisconsin Will Win

There won’t be nearly enough offense to do much against one of the nation’s best defenses.

Illinois State only averaged 3.6 yards per carry and won’t come up with anything down the field with the passing game. For a defense that has to retool a bit and get the secondary in place, this is the perfect scrimmage to ease into the season.

What’s Going To Happen

The Badgers will be able to call their shot in the first game against an FCS team since 2014.

The Illinois State defense really is good enough to come up with a few shots and make the Wisconsin offense work a bit, but the only drama here will be whether or not the road team gets on the board.
