Wisconsin vs. LSU: Predictions and odds for the 2024 ReliaQuest Bowl

The LSU Tigers will face off against the Wisconsin Badgers in the 2023 ReliaQuest Bowl, a New Year's Six bowl game in Tampa, Florida.

The ReliaQuest Bowl will mark LSU's 55th bowl game appearance. This season, the Tigers finished second in the SEC West Division with a 9-3 record. Unfortunately LSU will be without Jayden Daniels, the 2023 Heisman winner, who led the nation in scoring, pass efficiency, and third-down conversion percentage. Daniels, who is LSU's third Heisman winner, ended the season with 3,812 passing yards, 1,134 rushing yards, and 40 touchdowns.

Daniels announced that he will skip the Tigers' bowl game in a video and will instead prepare for the NFL draft.

The Badgers finished second in the Big Ten West division with a 7-5 regular season record and this will mark their 35th bowl appearance. Wisconsin's offense will be led by quarterback Tanner Mordecai and All-Big Ten Second Team Safety Hunter Wohler. Mordecai had a passing percentage of 64.6, finishing the season with 1,687 yards and six touchdowns. Wohler recorded 113 tackles, two interceptions and one sack in the 2023 season.
