<h2>Army-Wisconsin Betting Odds </h2>
<p>This week's <a href="https://www.sportsbettingstats.com/ncaaf/odds&quot; title="College Football Betting Lines From Multiple Sportsbooks">college football betting lines</a> opened Wisconsin at -11 with an over/under of around 42.5. Early betting action then steamed the Badgers three points to -14 and dropped that total three and a half points to 39.</p>
<h2>Army Betting Preview </h2>
<p>The Black Knights are 4-1 on the season after losing at Ball State two weeks ago, 28-16. Army then had last week off.</p>
<p>The Knights gave up a touchdown return on the opening kick-off against the Cardinals, trailed 21-0 in the first quarter but pulled to within 21-14 by halftime. But Army could get no closer from there, its only scoring in the second half, coming on a gift safety with two minutes left, falling outright as a 10-point favorite.</p>
<p>Army out-rushed Ball State 213-36 and dominated time of possession by a 38:22 split but gave up that KO return for a score and lost the turnover battle 2-0, resulting in a -7 points differential.</p>
<p>Knights starting QB Chris Anderson missed the Ball State game two weeks ago with a bad shoulder and is listed as questionable for Saturday night. But Army actually has a couple of guys who can play, so it should be OK at that spot.</p>
<p>The Black Knights opened this season with a 43-10 win over Georgia State, then beat Western Kentucky 38-35, then topped UConn 52-21, then beat Miami-Ohio 23-10. So while Army is 4-1, it hasn't exactly played a Murderer's Row of a schedule.</p>
<h2>Wisconsin Betting Preview </h2>
<p>The Badgers, meanwhile, are 2-3 on the season after blanking Illinois in Champaign last week 24-0. Wisconsin broke the ice with a field goal late in the first quarter, led 10-0 at the half, then drove its first possession of the second half 75 yards to a touchdown and eased home from there for the much-needed victory and the cover as a 12-point favorite.</p>
<p>The Badgers out-gained the Illini 491-93 (!), out-rushed Illinois 391-26, and dominated the time of possession by a 43:17 split.</p>
<p>Two weeks ago, Wisconsin looked bad and lost 38-17 at home to Michigan, and just before that, it looked kinda bad in a 41-13 loss to Notre Dame, although that game was closer than that score indicates.</p>
<p>The Badgers went off this season as the favorite to win the Big Ten West, but that does not look like it's going to happen. And at 2-3 overall, Wisconsin needs four wins over its last seven games to become bowl-eligible, and that doesn't look like any sure thing.</p>
<p>This is the first-ever meeting between these two programs. Wisconsin's last meeting with a service academy team was a 38-0 victory over Air Force back in 1979, while Army's previous meeting with a Big Ten opponent was a 24-21 double-overtime loss at Michigan just two seasons ago. The Cadets could have won that game outright and easily covered the spread as three-touchdown underdogs.</p>
