Not many people are talking about Wisconsin coming out of the Big Ten, but this is a team primed to really break out this season. They will certainly challenge for the Big Ten West, but winning the conference and putting together a playoff resume looks beyond their reach with this schedule.
Non-conference games against LSU and Georgia State will really test the Badgers’ defense, and they are saddled with road games against Michigan State, Michigan and Iowa. That’s tough sledding in a conference that is getting better each year.
Not even Barry Alvarez could navigate the Badgers through this schedule to the playoffs. But they shouldn’t be overlooked either.
