New Mexico Lobos
The New Mexico Lobos are a tricky team because they run a triple option attack which can give opponents fits. Even this kind of style can be difficult at times for the top teams like Wisconsin.
So, it is possible that New Mexico controls the ball a little bit, take some time off the clock and maybe have a chance to cover. However, they haven’t had that kind of luck when looking at the results from last year.

A quality defensive program in San Diego State shut them down to the tune of ten points. Texas A&M held them to 14 points; Utah State held them to ten points and Wyoming shut them down to three points.
Points will be hard to come by and defensively they have no chance to stop those big guys for Wisconsin.
Wisconsin Badgers
Wisconsin had a point total of 36 points last week and they didn’t cover. They only gave up three points, but they only scored 34 points. That’s the only concern with a high spread with a team like Wisconsin that just grinds down the game.
The Badgers aren’t looking to score in under a minute. They take their time and grind down their opponent and against an inferior team like New Mexico they aren’t going to run up the score or anything like that.

So, in some ways it’s a bit of a risk, but just banking on Wisconsin’s talent and size is the way to go.

The line opened up at 33 and it’s gone up to 35 already. And with good reason, Wisconsin is the play here. You might even take a look at the under, as well.
4* Free NCAA Betting Pick: Wisconsin -35
Wisconsin looked solid in typical Badger fashion on opening night. The New Mexico Lobos are smaller and slower than Wisconsin.
Thirty five is a lot for a team like Wisconsin to cover, but I’d rather lose with them rather than taking the Lobos who for sure won’t be competitive in this game.
