No. 7 Wisconsin Against No. 8 Nebraska in Big Ten Clash

It is finally Nebraska-Wisconsin week after 13 months of anticipation since the Big Ten released the first football schedule to include the Cornhuskers. 

Where : Camp Randall Stadium, MADISON, WI
When : 8:00 PM ET, October 1, 2011
TV : ABC

The question is whether Saturday night's game between the two 4-0 teams in Madison, Wisconsin., can live up to the hype.

The Wisconsin Badgers have burst out of the gates on the college football betting board to four straight victories over non-conference opponents and a combined score of 194-34 - htat's an average winning margin of 40 points!. Powered by transfer quarterback Russell Wilson, Wisconsin will look to carry over the momentum into a Week 5 home matchup with the #8-ranked Nebraska Cornhuskers.

The #8 Huskers have been less impressive. They have won by an average of three touchdowns, but the defense has looked vulnerable and quarterback Taylor Martinez has been up and down. Still 4-0 is 4-0, and every win has been comfortable in the end.

With Wilson taking the snaps for Wisconsin, the Badgers have climbed from #11 in the preseason AP polls up to #7 with victories over teams like Oregon State and South Dakota.Now Wisconsin are facing the formidable Nebraska Cornhuskers in their first week of conference play, and  Wisconsin will need their new quarterback to put together another big game. Through Weeks 1-4, Wilson has thrown over 1,100 yards and 11 touchdowns.

The Nebraska matchup will allow fans and critics looking to gauge Wisconsin’s legitimacy on the NCAA football futures board, but it poses a significant threat to the Badgers’ bid for an undefeated campaign.

With both programs heading into the match 4-0, the Big Ten debut will inevitably leave one fanbase dejected.Will Wilson continue to come through for his new campus or will the Huskers knock Wisconsin back in the standings?
