Our Wisconsin football coverage team predicts the outcome of the Badgers’ game against No. 4 Alabama on Saturday at Camp Randall Stadium in Madison.

Mark Stewart

This will be a great measuring stick for the Badgers heading into Big Ten play. I know there are questions about the Wisconsin defensive front, but I wonder how the offense will fare. UW, which had 28 points in Week 1 and 27 points in Week 2, has a lot to prove on that side of the ball. That said I think the Badgers will be competitive at home. Alabama 27, Wisconsin 17.

JR Radcliffe

Like a lot of people, I don’t think the Badgers will beat Alabama. The lingering dissenting voice in my head thinks, anecdotally, that UW’s outcomes in recent years often seem to run counter to expectations, in a good way and bad way. Maybe Alabama has the same lethargic-by-their-standards first half that they had against South Florida, and Wisconsin pounces? Maybe UW finds a way to bring its strong fourth-quarter showings to all four quarters? Maybe UW makes the necessary tweaks to at least limit the run game? Maybe, but probably not. Alabama 35, Wisconsin 10.
