Wisconsin is 5-1 against the spread in their last 6 home games and 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games following a failed cover. Ohio State is 9-3 ATS in their last 12 road games.

Wisconsin is a tough place to play, but Ohio State has survived some tough road environments already and have established themselves as head and shoulders above the rest of the Big Ten.
