While it’s always compelling to take a deep dive into the most important games for Luke Fickell’s Badgers this fall, today I’m going a different direction: I’ll be breaking down the three games that I’m the most pumped for due to the various subplots surrounding them and how they will serve as helpful barometers into where the 2024 Wisconsin Badgers program is.
Besides being highly subjective (which I love!), this allows me to consider both history and intangibles more than I otherwise would, instead of simply taking into account how highly ranked an opponent might be or how much hype will likely exist for the matchup.
