The Wisconsin Badgers had a disappointing 2024 campaign, going 5-7 and ending the year on five straight losses.
It was their worst season in 22 years, as they did not make a bowl game, prompting quite a few changes for head coach Luke Fickell this offseason.
Wisconsin struggled on both sides of the ball last year. Their scoring offense was in the bottom third of the country, thanks to an ugly passing offense and a rushing attack that could never get going with consistency.
Defensively, however, the Badgers took a big step back from their usual elite ranks, especially against the run.
