Matchup analysis
Wisconsin’s passing success offers a reason to investigate the underdog, but Eastern Michigan is not the same defensive test. Penn State created big gains without converting many third downs, so its large point total should not be mistaken for flawless possession-by-possession execution. Wisconsin must limit those early-down explosives and sustain its own drives to keep the spread in play.
