Hot Seat Watch, Week 5: Luke Fickell thanks his lucky stars over a big Badgers buyout

Just end the season... Through the first four games of the 2025 campaign, the Wisconsin Badgers look like one of the very worst teams in the Big Ten. They had an opportunity to get a relatively easy one at home before their bye week and completely wet the bed. Luke Fickell looks like comedic actor Steve Coogan cosplaying as a Power Four head coach. He cannot even avoid the landmines, brother.

Now saddled at 2-2 on the year and 0-1 in Big Ten play, there is a chance Wisconsin does not win another game the rest of the way.
