For the first time since 2021, Michigan football will square off against Wisconsin on Saturday. The Wolverines and Badgers are each coming off a bye week.
Michigan football won its Big Ten opener against Nebraska. Wisconsin was drubbed by Maryland to fall to 2-2 on the season. Luke Fickell is squarely on the hot seat.
A win over 20th-ranked Michigan would help ease some of the pressure. It won't be easy though. The Badgers have a decent defense, although they aren't very good at defending the pass.
The run defense looks good on paper.
