Wisconsin vs. Miami

Wow, how the fortunes have changed for these programs this season. A year ago, the Badgers and Hurricanes met in the Orange Bowl with Wisconsin winning 34-24.

Both teams had high expectations coming into the season only to falter and end up in a second-tier bowl.

Will either team be motivated to win? I doubt it.

Miami was strong against the run allowing just 127.5 yards-per-game. It will load the box to stop Jonathan Taylor and force Jack Coan to beat them.

I don’t think he can and the Hurricanes roll to an easy payback win, 38-21.
