2023 Wisconsin Football Game-By-Game Predictions: Week 7 through Week 13
Can you believe we are heading into Week 7 of the 2023 college football season? Well, that is exactly where we are, and the Wisconsin Football team is currently sitting at 4-1 on the season with a huge home matchup against Iowa staring them straight in the face. After losing to Washington State in Week 2, the Badgers have won three straight games, including Big Ten wins against Purdue and Rutgers. With that being said, it's time to project how the Badgers will fare during the remainder of the season.
Predicting the Remainder of the 2023 Regular Season
Here are my predictions for the remainder of the Badgers' 2023 regular season. As you can see, I have Wisconsin winning six of their final seven games to finish out the season.
| Date | Opponent | Time | Prediction |
|---|---|---|---|
Saturday Oct. 14 | Iowa Hawkeyes | 3 p.m. CT | WIN |
Saturday Oct. 21 | at Illinois Fighting Illini | 2:30 p.m. CT | WIN |
Saturday Oct. 28 | Ohio State Buckeyes | Time TBA | LOSS |
Saturday Nov. 4 | at Indiana Hoosiers | Time TBA | WIN |
Saturday Nov. 11 | Northwestern Wildcats | Time TBA | WIN |
Saturday Nov. 18 | Nebraska Cornhuskers | Time TBA | WIN |
Saturday Nov. 25 | at Minnesota Golden Gophers | Time TBA | WIN |
Why it Matters
The Badgers are currently sitting at 2-0 in the Big Ten West, which is one game ahead of Iowa (5-1 overall, 2-1 conference). This means the Badgers currently control their own destiny when it comes to getting to the Big Ten Championship Game, which will take place on Saturday, Dec. 2. If Wisconsin does finish exactly how I believe they will, they will finish with a 10-2 overall record (8-1 in the Big Ten), and they will advance the Big Ten Championship Game, where they will likely face Michigan, Ohio State, or Penn State.

Bottom Line: On Wisconsin!
As we project the path forward, it's hard not to feel optimistic about the Badgers' prospects. Predicting six wins in their final seven games seems perfectly attainable, offering the tantalizing possibility of a 10-2 overall record and a shot at the Big Ten Championship Game. The Badgers control their destiny in the Big Ten West, and it's thrilling to imagine the battle that might await them in the championship game, potentially against the likes of Michigan, Ohio State, or Penn State. It's a thrilling time to be a Badgers fan, and as the leaves turn and the temperature drops, the football action is only getting hotter in Madison.
