The No. 8 ranked Wisconsin Badgers and No. 15 Western Michigan Broncos will face off against each other in the 2017 Cotton Bowl, marking the first time that either team has ever played in this specific bowl game.
Western Michigan is the Cinderella team this season. With an impressive undefeated record of 13-0, they'll take on the Badgers who, arguably, had the toughest schedule out of any team in the nation this past season yet somehow, still managed to put together a 10-3 season.
While Western Michigan doesn't have the name recognition like most teams in major bowl games, it would be silly to underestimate the team's high-powered offense that is ranked eighth in the nation in points per game with 43.
