Weather Report (Madison — Camp Randall)

Forecast indicators for game day (Nov 8) show wet, chilly conditions through the afternoon and evening with periods of rain and even mixed rain/snow as temperatures dip into the mid-to-upper 30s °F. Expect slick footing, slower field conditions and a heavy influence on the play-calling mix toward runs, short passes and conservative special teams. That environment suppresses big plays and scoring.

Washington vs Wisconsin Prediction

Play: Under 44

Both the matchup dynamics and the conditions point firmly toward the under. Washington enters as the stronger team and likely controls tempo with a balanced, methodical offense, while Wisconsin’s ongoing offensive inconsistency limits their scoring ceiling. The Badgers have struggled to sustain drives against top defenses, and Washington’s front seven excels at forcing punts and field goals instead of touchdowns. Add in the forecast for cold, wet conditions at Camp Randall — temperatures in the 30s with rain and wind — and you have a game built for conservative play-calling, heavy running, and clock-draining possessions.

With both defenses capable of tightening in the red zone and neither side built for quick-strike scoring in poor weather, this matchup sets up perfectly for a low-scoring, grind-it-out affair that stays under the 44-point total.

Final Score Prediction: Washington 17, Wisconsin 13 — Total: 30 (UNDER 44).
