Wisconsin Football: Badgers ranked 18th in first AP Poll release

The first AP poll of the 2022 season was released today. The weekly poll featured four Big Ten schools including Wisconsin, which checked in at #18. The Big Ten sits as follows heading into week one of the college football season.

  • #2 Ohio State (6 first-place votes)
  • #8 Michigan
  • #15 Michigan State
  • #18 Wisconsin

Many Big Ten teams were on the outside looking in as well. Iowa, Penn State, Minnesota, and Nebraska also received votes but did not make the top 25.

As expected, Ohio State comes in ranked 2nd, while also receiving six first-place votes.
