Yea it will be interesting. He has been great against some poor competition.
NU has been tested (by some either mediocre or good competition). 

NU's DL needs to pick up the pace. They seemed to get bunched up too much
against Fresno St, allowing a poor OL to work together  to give Carr time.
Carr also was very effective on the roll outs. If NU allows Wilson to roll
out like that, it will be a long day. I am hoping NU goes back to the Peso
formation, with Stafford in and it can work reasonably well against the run.
NU has had trouble against the run from the nickel package and against the
pass from the normal 4-3. 

BTW, what has happened to the zone read ? Is that gone completely from the
repertoire? I do not remember seeing it (though I have watched only about
half of 3 of the 4 games)

I'm guessing you're not... but good grief that guy can throw the ball far,
accurate and on the run. 

What Wilson has brought to Wisconsin is a completely different approach to
their offense. You can't look back at last year's offense and have an idea
of what to do (although it sounds great) because while they used to be so
reliant on play-action, with Wilson they have a bona fide passing game. 

The guy is bloody phenomenal.
