Here’s how you can watch Friday evening’s Wisconsin vs Utah State game from Madison, Wisc., online.

Entering the 2017 season, Wisconsin has high hopes yet again. Paul Chryst is entering his third season as the team’s head coach and he’s looking to get back to the Big Ten Championship. The Badgers cam just short of upsetting Penn State for the title last year.

The Badgers will have a new-look offense, especially in the backfield. Corey Clement is gone and he leaves the backfield duties to Chris James and Bradrick Shaw. Both are capable runners who could take some pressure of Alex Hornibrook.

Moreover, Wisconsin’s defense has the potential to be one of the best in the nation — even without star linebacker Jack Cichy who was lost for the season with a knee injury.

Utah State, on the other hand, did not have the most successful season in 2016. In fact, the Aggies finished just 3-9 which was one of the worst marks in the entire Mountain West. Not many people are expecting the Aggies to compete in 2017, but keeping it close against Wisconsin could be a huge confidence boost.
