The No. 8 Wisconsin Badgers return to Evanston, a place they haven't won in 17 years, as they will face the Northwestern Wildcats on Saturday (11 a.m. CST, ABC).

UW (6-2, 3-2 Big Ten) appears it will have its star defensive standout, outside linebacker T.J. Watt, on the field after suffering a shoulder injury against No. 10 Nebraska last Saturday. How will Watt, Vince Biegel, T.J. Edwards and the combination of Leon Jacobs/Ryan Connelly step up to stop a rushing attack featuring Wildcats running back Justin Jackson and quarterback Clayton Thorson? Can an overachieving Wisconsin secondary stop Big Ten-leading receiver (and former walk-on) Austin Carr? We'll break it all down with B5Q founder, now WGN's Chicago Bears insider and Northwestern football sideline reporter Adam Hoge at the top of the hour.

We'll also discuss last night's World Series game and the Chicago Cubs winning it all for the first time since 1908, and preview the Green Bay Packers battling Scott Tolzien and the Indianapolis Colts.
