Living in Madison now — have I mentioned that before? — everyone is high on the Badgers. And that’s because there are a ton of homers here, but, also, they’re not bad. I’m not picking Jonathan Taylor to win the Heisman, but the RB can certainly be in the conversation, and if Nebraska falters at all, that opens the door for Wisconsin to run the table. Then, I’m assuming Michigan upsets OSU in The Game, and that sets up a championship game appearance. I feel like the Wolverines keep slipping up in these moments though, and that lets Wisconsin win the title en route to a Rose Bowl.
