Hear from Luke Fickell after the Badgers’ 38-21 loss to USC in Week 5.

The Wisconsin Badgers lost their second game of the season in a tough 38-21 loss to the USC Trojans on Saturday, dropping their first conference game of the year.

Whereas Wisconsin’s 42-10 loss to the Alabama Crimson Tide in Week 3 was rough from the start, the Badgers had their best half of football in the first half, getting out to a 21-10 lead.

But, things faltered from there, as USC outscored Wisconsin 28-0 in the second half, capitalizing on mistakes from the Badgers and great offensive execution to complete the comeback victory.
