NON-SPREAD
As much as people hate to admit the spread works, the best defensive game of the year so far was against USC (taking into account that the Defense was never on the field against MTSU). They picked up half of their yards on two plays (long pass, long run). The common factor between USC and WI is that neither run the spread. When you have a young defense that gets confused easily, non-spread teams are much easier to play. The fact that Wisconsin is going to line it up and pound us into submission bodes well. At least we will line up correctly. Not a ton of things you can do out of Wisconsin's formations. Not saying it'll be a great defensive performance by any means, but it will be the best of the year.
