WIAC PROJECTIONS: WEEK 6

UW-Eau Claire at UW-Platteville
The Blugolds have been struggling to run the ball the past two weeks and stopping the run is the strength of the Pioneer defense. The Pioneers defense is #2 in Red Zone Defense, while the Blugolds rank #7. Platteville has a dangerous passing attack and UW-EC is coming off three straight big games. UPSET SPECIAL.

UW-Eau Claire 17

UW-Oshkosh at UW- Stevens Point
The Titans are coming in after 2 straight WIAC wins, while the Pointers have started a disappointing 2-2. This is a classic passing team (UW-O) against a running team (UW-SP) matchup. The defense is the difference.

UW-Oshkosh 20

UW-River Falls at UW-LaCrosse
These two victory starved teams come into this game a combined 0-9. Defensively neither team has been able to stop the run. Offensively, the Falcons' Taylor Edwards and the Eagles' Lee Lauters ranks 1-2 in the WIAC in rushing yardage. This one could be a shoot-out.

UW-LaCrosse 35
UW-River Falls 31

UW-Stout at UW-Whitewater
The Blue Devils come into this one with a 3-1 record and a 3 game winning streak. Coming into the game, UW-W and UW-S rank 1-2 respectively in total offense and total defense in the WIAC. Both teams are facing far and away their toughest opponent to date. UW-S has gotten steadily better over the past 4 games. Their improvement will have to be dramatic to win this one.
