The Wisconsin Badgers had an up-and-down year on the gridiron by many measures, defeating Michigan and Minnesota and winning their Bowl Game but suffering a three-game losing streak that took them out of the Big Ten Championship picture.
The best word that can be used to describe the season is resilience, as the team fought adversity all season but came together to finish on a high note.
The biggest thing to take away, in all honesty, is the youth on the team and how valuable their playing time will prove to be.
Despite the losing streak, ESPN FPI always viewed the Badgers highly. Their postseason rankings are out now, and where the team falls may surprise many.
