The Buckeyes are a conference-best 61-5 (93.8%) in Big Ten play over the past eight seasons. The Badgers are second at 50-17 (74.6%).

The Badgers are 2-4 against the spread (ATS) in their past six games. The total has gone under in the over/under (O/U) in four of the Badgers’ past five games.

The Buckeyes are 1-4 ATS in their past five games but 13-1 straight up (SU) in their past 14 games. The Buckeyes’ streak of 64 consecutive games with 20-plus points scored is second all-time behind Oklahoma (69 from 2016-21).

Pick by FOX Sports betting analyst Jason McIntyre:

The Buckeyes have been fine since an ugly first half in the opener against Notre Dame, similar to last year’s sluggish start against Minnesota.

Ohio State has owned Wisconsin, winning eight straight in the series, but two went to overtime and three others were one-score games.

Everyone’s first impression of the Buckeyes was that the defense remains an issue, but it has been tremendous in the last 10 quarters and is going to throttle Wisconsin third-year starting QB Graham Mertz.

These aren’t your older brother’s Badgers — they lost to Washington State as 17-point favorites earlier this month. This is the game that serves notice to the Big Ten that the Buckeyes have a defense now, too. Give the Badgers the points, and enjoy the 38-10 fourth quarter lead.

PICK: Ohio State (-18 at FOX Bet, bet $10 to win $19.09 total) to win by more than 18 points
