The last time the Wisconsin Badgers (2-3 overall, 1-2 Big Ten) played a service academy in football was 1979 and the last time they played the Army Black Knights (4-1 overall) was, well, never. This will be a fun, interesting and historic matchup between two teams that absolutely love to run the football.
The Badgers and Black Knights also will face off in men’s hockey this Thursday and Friday at the Kohl Center, with the series marking the first on-ice meetings between the programs since a 1-0 win for the Badgers at West Point on Jan.
