The Big Ten Conference is finally here. Illinois finished last season at 6-7 making a trip to the Redbox Bowl where they lost to California 35-20. Wisconsin had a good season, finishing 10-4 overall but fell in both the Big Ten Championship game to Ohio State and the Rose Bowl to Oregon.

Illinois went 6-7 overall and 4-5 in the Big Ten and finished fourth in the West Division. The Illini were 6-4 at one point in the season before losing their last three games. Wisconsin started the season at 6-0 but stumbled down the stretch. They finished 10-4 overall and 7-2 in the Big Ten. They lost to Illinois last season 24-23. They lost to Ohio State 34-21 in the Big Ten Championship and 28-27 to Oregon in the Rose Bowl.

Wisconsin will have revenge on their mind after last season's upset loss. Wisconsin will have a new look on the offensive side but their defense is always a strength. They won't make the same mistake they made last season and will come away with an easy win.

Play on Wisconsin.
