Football: No. 19 Wisconsin Badgers upset at home by Washington State, 17-14

The University of Wisconsin Badgers football team lost in a painful fashion Saturday afternoon, losing 17-14 to the unranked Washington State Cougars.

It was a game highlighted by mistakes on both offense and defense for the Badgers, who failed to capitalize in multiple crucial situations.

Throughout the entirety of the game, Wisconsin seemed to struggle to adjust to the spread-out, fast-paced style of the Washington State offense. The Cougars featured a plethora of screens and run-pass options with two receivers stacked on each side, something uncommon in the Big Ten conference.

In a post-game interview, Wisconsin linebacker Kamo’i Latu was asked if it was difficult to prepare and adjust to the other team’s style.
