3. Braedyn Locke doesn't turn the ball over once vs. Iowa
What can we expect to see out of Wisconsin quarterback Braedyn Locke against Iowa? Hopefully a strong performance. Since taking over as the starting quarterback for Tyler Van Dike, who went down with a torn ACL against Alabama, Locke has been far too inconsistent with the ball in his hands. It has been a problem for Fickell.
In five consecutive games, Locke has thrown at least one interception. We all saw how things went down against Penn State, with the QB throwing one of the worst interceptions you'll ever see. He stared down his receiver and PSU's Jaylen Reed made him pay with a back-breaking INT that was taken back to the house.

In order for the Badgers to have a shot at taking down Iowa in Week 10, Locke needs to step his game up and take care of the football. Luckily, we think that will be the case for him vs. the Hawkeyes. We're predicting Locke to throw for 225 yards, a touchdown, but more importantly, no interceptions.
