This from SI:
RELIAQUEST BOWL (38)
Matchup: Wisconsin (7–5) vs. LSU (9–3)
When: Jan. 1, 12 p.m.
Where: Tampa
Line: LSU by 10.5
Watchability ranking: 8th out of 42. The game features brand names from brand leagues. And if the Heisman Trophy winner plays, it will feature the biggest star in the sport. This is also an elite matchup of drinking fan bases—Tampa, you have been warned.
Mascot fight: This one is easy. Mike the Tiger kills all rival mascots, including the costumed Wisconsin Bucky Badger.
Dash pick: LSU 33, Wisconsin 21. As previously stated, the operative strategy here is to fade the Big Ten West—but let’s keep an eye on that point spread if Jayden Daniels opts out. The Badgers have a grand total of zero victories over teams with winning records, and threw in losses to a pair of teams with losing records as well (Indiana, Washington State). Their offense wasn’t good, and that was before opt-outs and transfers.
At least it is in the Top 10 for watchability. Anybody know if Jayden Daniels is playing?
