The Wisconsin Badgers lost to the Northwestern Wildcats 24-10 on Saturday, dropping to 5-5 on the season and 3-3 in conference play.
Last weekend, I dubbed Wisconsin’s loss as the worst of the season, given that the Indiana Hoosiers entered the game winless in conference play, but this week’s defeat was even worse, as the Badgers couldn’t get either side going in the loss at home.
Quarterback Tanner Mordecai returned to the starting lineup after missing nearly a month with a broken hand and completed 31/45 passes for 255 yards, although the offense only scored 10 points, with seven coming in garbage time inside the final minute.
