Wisconsin's remaining schedule:
@Oregon
vs. Washington
@Indiana
vs. Illinois
@Minnesota
I don't see a Wisconsin win on the remaining schedule.
The program is getting consistently worse. 7-6 in 2023, 5-7 in 2024, and maybe 2-10 (0-9) in 2025.
I was surprised today to read that the A.D. met with players to assure them Fickell would return in 2026. The A.D. is working on player retention which they have to do if Fickell remains.
A look at the Ohio State box score. 7/15 passing for 49 yards. Against Iowa 8/21 for 82 yards. They can't very well play from behind with that passing game.
Wisconsin has scored 93 points for the season, third lowest total in FBS.
If they could hire James Franklin they would not have to buy out Franklin's contract, and perhaps could pay him less than FMV as Penn State has to buy out his contract.
