The Football Power Index (FPI) is a measure of team strength that is meant to be the best predictor of a team's performance going forward for the rest of the season. FPI represents how many points above or below average a team is. Here are the national ranks and scores for each team:

Michigan: 28th with a score of 9.9

Wisconsin: 4th with a score of 24.0

Here are the ESPN Team Efficiency Scores:

Michigan

Overall: 48th with a score of 57.3

Offense: 21st with a score of 71.3

Defense: 77th with a score of 42.8

Wisconsin

Overall: 3rd with a score of 88.5

Offense: 25th with a score of 69.8

Defense: 1st with a score of 95.0

ESPN's SP+ rating is "a tempo- and opponent-adjusted measure of college football efficiency" created by Bill Connelly, designed to predict future games, and doesn't serve as a résumé ranking. Here's how the metric sees Michigan and Michigan State:

Michigan

Overall: 18th with a rating of 14.0

Offense: 30th with a rating of 34.0

Defense: 19th with a rating of 19.9

Wisconsin

Overall: 4th with a rating of 25.7

Offense: 12th with a rating of 38.3

Defense: 2nd with a rating of 12.6

Analysis: In Wisconsin's one game (a 45-7 win over Illinois), the Badgers were extremely efficient on offense, especially in the passing game, with redshirt freshman quarterback Graham Mertz completing 20-of-21 passes for 248 yards and five touchdowns in his first career start. Defensively, they also had their way with the Illini offense.

Michigan, on the other hand, has been disappointing the last two weeks, but they've still been efficient on offense, according to the above metrics. The Wolverines have had success offensively, but not on a consistent enough basis. For example, Michigan is 10-for-28 on third-down conversions over the last two weeks. Wisconsin's defense will be a whole new challenge this weekend.

FPI is giving Michigan just a 12.8 percent chance to beat the Badgers at home.

According to PFF, Michigan has the No. 37 offense in the country while Wisconsin's defense ranks at No. 32 after two weeks.

A note on PFF grades — a single-game grade of about 64 is considered average.
