In terms of the expectations game, it’s easy to say that the Wisconsin Badgers, even if they lose to the Michigan Wolverines or Ohio State Buckeyes, have passed with flying colors.
If you’re the sort to believe in historical omens, the Badgers are in line for one hell of a ride. If you’re more pragmatic or the sort that unironically retweets Neil DeGrasse Tyson, the Badgers are really good with a chance to be great. They will also return 17 starters from this team next year barring injuries, NFL opportunities or stupidity, criminal or otherwise.
