It is official: Michigan football will play Wisconsin this week.
The Badgers, who have not played since the opening week due to a COVID-19 outbreak, announced Monday that the team is currently preparing for this Saturday's contest in Ann Arbor (7:30 p.m., ABC).
"We had no new positives on Tuesday and Wednesday, which was a great sign," said athletic director Barry Alvarez. "That's when we started thinking — Friday could be a day we could get the team together to start doing things with an eye towards having a regular practice week this week.
