I remember the Badgers getting spanked by OOC teams in the 80's and 90's. Miami, Colorado, Syracuse.

I was at the 1989 Miami game, and participated in the "we scored first!" chant. It was a 51-3 final. I think Jimmie let his foot off the gas too. 

I was at the 1988 Michigan game the year prior, and I don't think Bo let his foot off the gas in a 62-14 final.

30 years is a long time ago though, so I could be misremembering, but I'm pretty sure Bo liked to run it up on UW given what happened during his interview there.

Would that even be fun??
If Purdue managed that, even for one season, I think it would be the most fun football season of my entire life.

Losses:
First, the Ohio State games:
2014 Big Ten Championship: #6 Ohio State vs. #11 Wisconsin: 59-0. Ouch.
1975 #1 Ohio State vs. unranked Wisconsin: 56-0
1979 #6 Ohio State vs. unranked Wisconsin: 59-0

Then some others:
1988 #19 Michigan vs. unranked Wisconsin: 62-14
1989 #3 Miami vs. unranked (and bad) Wisconsin: 51-3
1995 #13 Colorado vs. #21 Wisconsin: 43-7
1997 #17 Syracuse vs. #24 Wisconsin: 34-0 (I remember those last two all too well--both were season openers).

Wins:
1962: #8 Wisconsin vs. #1 Northwestern: 37-6

Then the Nebraska games:
2012 Big Ten Championship: unranked Wisconsin vs. #12 Nebraska: 70-31
2011: #7 Wisconsin vs. #8 Nebraska: 48-17
2014: #22 Wisconsin vs. #11 Nebraska: 59-24

1999 was good for these wins:
unranked Wisconsin at #12 Ohio State: 42-17 (turned out Ohio State was having a bad season, but a win like that at the Horseshoe doesn't come around very often--especially after going down 17-0).
#16 Wisconsin vs. #11 Michigan State: 40-10
#18 Wisconsin vs. Indiana: 59-0
#9 Wisconsin vs. Iowa: 41-3 (seeing as how Iowa is our biggest natural rival--since Minnesota hasn't been that good recently, this was a really big deal).

As was 2010:
yeah, it's Indiana, but still: #6 Wisconsin: 83-20
#5 Wisconsin vs. Northwestern: 70-23

I was at that 1999 Iowa game (and all the others, including OSU..), and that was probably the most emotional game I was ever at. The Dayne Game. Unreal atmosphere.

last time bama lost by 30+ was 1998 @ arky.

kinda the antithesis of this thread, but cool stat going on right now, bama hasn't lost by more than 14 since 2006 (uf by 15) (160 games).

rolltidefan, a game I almost included was Florida's 1991 win over Bama (35-0).  I think it really told everyone in the conference that Spurrier was legit.

But Bama beat UF 31-3 maybe 10 years later - the game where Bama's tiny (but good) WR destroyed his leg.

Yeah, he was great.  It's sad, his leg never healed properly.

Nebraska was on both ends of a couple 1 vs 2 duds there.  Thanks for ruining a couple NC games for the rest of us!

Ranked vs Ranked blowouts?  Hmm. Without looking them up there are a few that come to mind.  

2016- Oklahoma drubbed us 56-28.  Went to this one.  Cold, pouring snow.   WVU actually sorta halfway made this a game briefly in the 4th quarter only for OU to open it up again.
2012- K State 52   WVU 14.  To this day the only game I’ve ever left before the 4th quarter started.
2012 Orange Bowl- WVU 70. Clemson 33

2011- LSU 47  WVU 21. 
2008 Fiesta Bowl- WVU 48  Oklahoma 28.  Is this a blowout?  Idk.  It was certainly an unexpected outcome.  My bias probably makes me include this one.
2007- WVU 66  UConn 21.  Went to this one too.  As I leaving the stadium there was such an atmosphere of celebration because this win elevated WVU to #2 in the BCS.  I turned to my friend and said Pitt should just forfeit the next week.  Of course, the next week we lost 13-9 in one of the biggest upsets in recent college football history.

2004 Gator Bowl- Maryland 41 WVU 7- There was a stretch where Fridge owned Rod.  This was a rematch of a regular season game where Maryland smoked WVU as well.

OAF already covered Florida trouncing WVU in the Sugar Bowl.  There may be others that I’m not remembering.
