Overview
- Kickoff is 7 p.m. ET (6 p.m. CT) at Camp Randall Stadium with national TV coverage on FS1 and streaming on Fubo.
- Radio coverage is available on SiriusXM, with Wisconsin on channel 196 and Iowa on channel 381.
- Iowa enters 3-2 (1-1 Big Ten) and Wisconsin 2-3 (0-2) for the rivalry meeting that decides the Heartland Trophy during Badgers homecoming.
- Betting and analytics lean Hawkeyes: line around Iowa -3.5, with ESPN’s SP+ projecting Iowa by 6.0 and FPI by 3.1.
- Quarterbacks shape the outlook, with Wisconsin starting Hunter Simmons after a solid Michigan outing and Iowa expecting Mark Gronowski to be available; a top-five Badgers run defense (~75 rushing yards allowed per game) faces an Iowa ground game reduced since Kaleb Johnson’s NFL departure.
