[MichiganHerd]

For those of you who picked Wisconsin over Nebraska, just an FYI, Wisconsin, who was playing their backup at starter last week, will be without him this weekend, due to having to sit 21 days due to testing positive with Covid. The 3rd string QB has also tested positive once, but if he tests positive again, he too will have to sit 21 days, which means Wisconsin will be going into the game with their 4th string QB.

Odds have moved from an open of Wisc -11 to -3.5 today.

Odds have moved from an open of Wisc -11 to -3.5 today.

Odds are that I may change my pick if the 3rd string QB has to sit as well. Nebraska isn't that great, but they're very capable of winning at home, if Wisconsin brings a stiff in to play QB. But, you never know, the 4th stringer could be the next Johnny Unitas.

I'm holding off until tomorrow, test will be in by then.

 

[WVUALLEN]

It's Nebraska not Alabama.

 

[MichiganHerd]

Hearing now that Wisconsin may not be able to play, due to having multiple players potentially unavailable. B1G fvcked up starting the season so late, and not allowing any room for makeup games, unless they decide to do what some WV high schools have done, and that's play twice a week, and truth be told, those in charge still probably don't want to play at all.

Wisconsin’s Big Ten game Saturday at Nebraska is in danger of being canceled, according to a source with knowledge of the Big Ten schedule.

The Journal Sentinel has reported that quarterbacks Graham Mertz and Chase Wolf have tested positive for coronavirus.

But according to a second source, UW’s test positivity rate is close to the threshold that would force the team to stop regular practice and competition for a minimum of seven days and then reassess the situation.

If the game is not played, it would be considered a no-contest rather than a forfeit.

Not on Pickm this week but QB Trevor Lawerence tests pos for COV19. 10 day sit out (acc rule) May mean he misses Clemson vs ND. Interesting

 

[WVex-pat in GA]

Gents, once again I am on the road this week at a local golf tourney, back Tuesday night. Can't take my laptop with me but I will give a winner for the week update via my cell phone on Sunday and the balance of the stats when I get back. Wish me luck!
