It’s game day in Iowa City as the Wisconsin Badgers get set to battle the No. 19 Iowa Hawkeyes in the final game of their regular season.

It’s been an up-and-down season for Paul Chryst’s team, with two straight blowout victories to start the season, three games being canceled due to COVID-19 protocols and two straight hard-fought losses against Northwestern and Indiana.

The season as a whole has been a challenge for everybody involved, but the team now gets a shot at defeating rival Iowa, facing Indiana during Big Ten Champions Week and entering Bowl Season with a 4-2 record.

Although ESPN College Gameday was on-site for the Army vs. Navy in West Point, New York, the Badgers’ matchup with the Hawkeyes as well as the Big Ten’s decision to waive the six-game requirement were significant topics.
