0:00On March 24th, the Wisconsin Badgers football team heads into the 2026 season with a bunch of new transfers on both sides of the ball. After a rough four wins, eight losses record last year. They brought in experienced starters at quarterback, running back, center, tight end, defensive line, cornerback, and safety with Colton Joseph. Leading the group back quarterback, and likely key to snapping a two-year bull drought. That influx of talent puts the Badgers around the middle nationally in returning production rankings, sitting 35th overall, 45th on, offense and 46th on defense, which lands them 10th in the 18 team Big Ten. Luke Fickle and his staff now face the challenge of turning this transfer heavy roster into wins, something that hasn't clicked over the past couple. Seasons The year kicks off of the big matchup against Notre Dame at Lambo Field on September 6th, followed by a row test at Penn State on September. Setting the tone early for their turnaround hopes.
