When it comes to the culture and tradition of college football, rivalries are the bread and butter of the crop. For the Wisconsin Badgers, that includes matchups against the Iowa Hawkeyes, Minnesota Golden Gophers, and Nebraska Cornhuskers.
Each of the three is a trophy game and always epitomizes the Big Ten with grimy, hard-fought victories over the last century.
While the Nebraska rivalry is fairly recent, given when they entered the Big Ten, the other two have been longstanding rivalries with strong track records from both sides.
Wisconsin owns the overall record over Iowa 49-47-2, but they’ve been on a recent slide, losing the last three games, which included a 42-10 beatdown at Kinnick Stadium last year.
