Fox Sports pundit Skip Bayless predicted Wisconsin will beat Ohio State for the Big Ten championship. The outspoken Bayless recently said the following on his show “Undisputed”: I got Wisconsin in this game, which will eliminate all this hocus pocus about Alabama…The last three weeks I watched them crush Iowa, I watched them beat Michigan soundly and I watched them go to Minnesota.

Nice to see Bayless has finally come around and is not talking about some common sense sports points. It’s been a long time coming, but I’d like to personally welcome him to the team.
