No. 18 Badgers v. Eastern Michigan preview

The University of Wisconsin Badgers (0-1, 0-1 Big Ten) will look to bounce back from their disappointing week one loss with Eastern Michigan University (1-0, 0-0 MAC), their first non-conference opponent of the year Saturday at Camp Randall.

The two teams have squared off three times in the past, the last matchup being in 1996.

EMU had a better result than the Badgers in the first week, with a 35-15 win against St. Francis University. Three first-half touchdowns from Eastern Michigan’s Samson Evans led the Eagles over the Red Flash.

This matchup will be important for a Wisconsin team whose offense looked quite underwhelming against Penn State last week.
