With fans or not, early signs are pointing towards Paul Chryst and the Wisconsin Badgers playing a football season come September.

How those games are going to look, I cannot predict. What we can predict, though, are the outcomes of each game and what the Badgers will need to do in order to build upon their impressive 2019 campaign.

Week 1: Indiana at Wisconsin

Prediction: Wisconsin 31 – Indiana 14

The Badgers have won 10 straight against the Hoosiers with their last loss coming in 2004.

Paul Chryst returning his starting quarterback in Jack Coan and an elite defense paired with the facts that he always has his teams ready to go Week 1 and Camp Randall is a tough place to win for opposing teams all point towards a season-opening victory for the Badgers.

Indiana, on the other hand, turns to an inexperienced yet talented player in Michael Penix Jr. at quarterback as they look to build upon their eight-win 2019 season. They’re no doubt an improving team, but having a new offensive coordinator and an inexperienced quarterback going into a year likely not to have much of a preseason preparation period will make it tough for the Hoosiers early in the season.

The Badgers shouldn’t have much trouble in this one.
