At 2-1 on the season heading into Big Ten play, Wisconsin is right where it probably should be. Yes, the loss on the road to Alabama still stings, but this was not a game in which the Badgers were expected to win. While neither home win over Miami (OH) or Middle Tennessee in the non-conference really move the needle all the much, Wisconsin is on par to still have a decent season for its standard.
Yes, the Alabama loss revealed many things that are wrong with this team. The offensive line is not anything close to what Badgers fans saw years ago under previous administrations.
