After a brutal second half where Wisconsin football was outscored 28-0, the Badgers return home this weekend to take on Purdue. The Boilermakers are coming off a 28-10 home loss to Nebraska. It was a game they had a good chance to win. It has been a tough year early on for Purdue and they are looking like one of, if not, the worst team in the Big Ten. Here is an early look at the Boilermakers. The Wisconsin Football Offense will Face a New Offensive Coordinator It may not make a big difference come Saturday, but Purdue did fire…

It;s going to be another tall task for Wisconsin football this week. After getting blown out two weeks ago against Alabama, the Badgers now go on the road take on #13 USC. They will also be without starting quarterback Tyler Van Dyke for the rest of the year after he tore his ACL in the Alabama game. It will be redshirt sophomore Brayden Lock who will take the reps the rest of the way. Here is what Wisconsin football needs to do if they are going to pull off a big road upset on Saturday.

The Wisconsin Football Defense Will Deal With a Pass First Offense The USC offense is pretty balanced, but they have thrown the ball more than they have ran. In three games, the Trojans have…

With Wisconsin football on a bye this week, yesterday I shared some of my early thoughts on the state of the offense. Today, I switch over to the defense. This is the unit I believe that has played better. Despite giving up 42 points to Alabama last week, most of these points were scored on short fields after the offense turned the ball over. Here are three of my early thoughts on the Wisconsin football defense. Still Struggling to Pressure the Quarterback When Luke Fickell loaded up on defensive line and linebacker in the transfer portal this offseason, the front…

This week is one of two bye weeks for the Wisconsin football program. Boy, do they ever need it. After getting crushed 42-10 to #4 Alabama at home last week, the Badgers also lost starting quarterback Tyler Van Dyke to a torn ACL. This was confirm yesterday. In my opinion, the offensive side of the ball has been more of the issue through 16 games under Luke Fickell. It’s really offensive coordinator Phil Longo who runs the show on this side. With Brayden Locke likely to be the starter for the foreseeable future, here are some of my early thoughts…

Saturday marks one of the biggest non-conference home games at Camp Randall Stadium in Wisconsin football program history. The Badgers welcome #4 Alabama for an 11 AM kickoff on Saturday. As a part of a home and home series, Wisconsin football will travel to Tuscaloosa next season. The first two games haven’t been as dominating as mist Badger fans would have thought. Everything needs to go right on Saturday. Here is what Wisconsin football needs to do for a massive upset win.

Saturday will be the biggest non-conference home game for Wisconsin football maybe ever. It’s been a game on fans schedule for years. The Badgers will welcome #4 Alabama into Camp Randall Stadium. It’t a part of a home and home schedule where the Badger will travel to Alabama next year. Wisconsin football has an under-whelming 2-0 record after struggling with an FCS team and a non-power 4 team. It could be a long afternoon Saturday. Here is an early look at Alabama. Wisconsin Football Must Contain Jalen Milroe The Crimson Tide still have a ton of faces they have to…

It was another back and forth battle for Wisconsin football on Saturday. The Badgers defeated South Dakota 27-13 to improve to 2-0 on the 2024 season. Overall, the offense was better early on, but stalled again in the second and third quarters, scoring only three points. The Coyotes got as close as 17-13, but Wisconsin football scored the final 10 points to secure the win. Here are some takeaways from Saturday’s win. Wisconsin Football Started Much Better on Offense The Wisconsin football offense wasted no time getting on the scoreboard Saturday, They scored on their first and third possessions. The…
