Wisconsin and Nebraska meet in a battle of 5-5 teams looking to secure a bowl bid and a winning season.
Wisconsin enters on a three-game losing streak to Penn State, Iowa, and Oregon, playing arguably the toughest three-game stretch for any Big Ten team. Wisconsin nearly pulled off the upset on No. 1 Oregon but allowed a 10-point fourth quarter losing 16-13 on a field goal with 2:36 left. The Badgers need one more win to secure a bowl bid, whether it comes at Nebraska this weekend or hosting Minnesota on Senior Day next week.
Nebraska has lost four straight games after a 5-1 start to the season. The Cornhuskers have lost to Indiana (56-7), Ohio State (21-17), UCLA (27-20), and USC (28-20). This is Senior Day for the Cornhuskers as they go on the road to end the regular season at Iowa next week on NBC and Peacock.

Game odds for Wisconsin @ Nebraska
The latest odds as of Tuesday afternoon:
o Moneyline: Wisconsin +110, Nebraska -130
o Spread: Nebraska -2.5 (-110)
o Total: 42.5 points
*odds courtesy of BetMGM
The look-ahead line was Wisconsin -1.5, so Nebraska has taken money as the Senior Day team in its home finale. Both teams are 5-5, so it’s no surprise that Nebraska has taken money. The total moved from 43.5 to 42.5, but not much is expected with the total.
NBC Sports Bet Best Bet
Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) has the following best bets between Wisconsin and Nebraska:
“Both of these teams are in dire need of a win and this could certainly come down to home-field advantage and motivation on Senior Day for Nebraska.
Wisconsin has lost three straight against Iowa, Penn State and Oregon. The hangover of a disappointing home loss to No. 1 Oregon and then going on the road to Nebraska to save your season is not an ideal situation to be in.
Nebraska has lost four straight and is desperate with a road game at Iowa as the regular season finale. The Cornhuskers need this win and with Wisconsin at home next week, I lean towards Nebraska on the ML (-135).”
