7. Let's talk about the players on the field
Something that never gets mentioned when a BCS team plays someone less.

If there is a team that can stop Wisconsin's massive lineman and Clay/White it is TCU. Ever since Gary Patterson took over their defense has been consistently ranked in the top 10 or top 20. They currently have two starting linebackers in the NFL that were drafted this year. Colts and Cardinals(As far as linebackers for the team go, Washington is playing the best).

The Tolzien and Dalton match-up should be very interesting. Tolzien doesn't get a lot of press because Wisconsin has that line, Clay/White, and overall a terrific running game, but he is very good himself. Andy Dalton has played terrific football the last few years at TCU. 66%, 9 YPA, 26 TDs-6 Ints this year. TCU also runs the ball well but not as well as Wisconsin who is great.
