The Matchup
Nebraska makes its final road trip of the season on Saturday afternoon when the Huskers take on 19th-ranked Wisconsin at Camp Randall Stadium. Game time in Madison is set for shortly after 2:30 p.m. CT. The game will be televised by ABC and can also be heard on the Huskers Radio Network.

Nebraska is coming off a bye week and stands at 3-7 overall and 1-6 in Big Ten Conference play. In the Huskers' most recent game, Nebraska fought hard against sixth-ranked Ohio State before falling 26-17, suffering its fourth setback this season against a ranked opponent. Nebraska held the powerful Buckeye offense in check, allowing a season-low point total against the nation's top-ranked scoring offense. Despite its disappointing record, Nebraska continues to remain competitive each week with its seven losses coming by a total of 42 points.

Wisconsin comes into its home finale full of momentum. After a 1-3 start, the Badgers have reeled off six consecutive wins to get to 7-3 overall and 5-2 in Big Ten Conference play. Wisconsin's most recent victory was a 35-7 rout of Northwestern on Saturday in Madison, with the Badger defense holding Northwestern scoreless for the first three quarters. Wisconsin needs two victories to secure a trip to the Big Ten Championship Gmae for the seventh time in the 11-year history of the title game.

The Badgers' success this season has been built on the strength of one of the nation's top defenses. Wisconsin ranks in the top two nationally in all four major defensive statistical categories, including leading the nation in total defense (216.3 ypg) and rushing defense (60.6 ypg). During their six-game win streak the Badgers have allowed just 7.3 points per game.

Series History: Nebraska vs. Wisconsin
Nebraska and Wisconsin meet each year as Big Ten West opponents and will once again compete for the Freedom Trophy, which was first created before the 2014 matchup. The schools have met 14 times overall, with nine of those meetings coming since Nebraska joined the Big Ten in 2011.

• Wisconsin owns a 10-4 advantage in the all-time series between the schools, including an 8-1 edge since 2011.

• Nebraska has won just once in six trips to Madison and not since joining the Big Ten Conference in 2011.

• Nebraska's lone trip to the Big Ten Championship Game came in 2012 as the Legends Division champ. The Huskers were defeated by Wisconsin in Indianapolis in that game.

• Saturday's game will mark the fourth consecutive meeting in which an unranked Nebraska team has faced off against a ranked Badger squad.

This Week's Numbers
5 –  Wisconsin enters Saturday's game ranked No. 19 in the Associated Press Poll, which marks Nebraska's fifth game in 2021 against a ranked opponent. Next week's season finale comes against No. 18 Iowa.

100 –  Nebraska linebackers Luke Reimer (96) and Nick Henrich (87) are both closing in on 100-tackle seasons. If they were to both reach 100 tackles, Reimer and Henrich would be the first Blackshirt duo to accomplish that feat since 2003 when Barrett Ruud had 149 tackles and Demorrio Williams had 128 stops.

Fumble stats are hard to locate.

Might not see much of this, have a play to attend. 

Curious to see how this team looks post coach shedding.

I'm concerned the team won't look good.

if they can keep it within 7 I'll be surprised and think the team is in a good place
I'd guess more like a 20 point loss

gotta score to win
