I am with everyone else who thinks there is little chance of this happening...but if Wisconsin WERE able to pull the upset...what would have to happen? Here's my realistic bullet points
1. Wisconsin's defensive line will have to control the line of scrimmage. They don't need to get after Fields on pass plays...Just hold their gaps and let our linebackers flow to Dobbins
2. Jack Coan has to have a huge game. To beat the Buckeyes will require making completions into tighter windows than he will see against other teams. His needs to be on the money.
3. Keep the creativity going, Ohio State pursues hard to the ball...Make them pay for that. Play action, play action, play action.
4. Special teams needs to either score or create a turnover. No missed field goals, no big Buckeye returns.
5. Badgers offensive line needs to a least record a draw against the Buckeye's defensive front. Its hard to expect blowing the OSU defensive line back, but having two or three defenders in the back field every time we run the ball can not happen.
6. Turnovers. We need them. At least +2 in the turnover ratio.
