The Wisconsin Badgers (5-4, 3-3 Big Ten) and No. 1 Oregon Ducks (10-0, 7-0 Big Ten) are close to 90 minutes away from kickoff at Camp Randall Stadium.
Wisconsin enters as a sizable underdog, looking to pull its first upset over an AP No. 1 overall team since it defeated then-No. 1 Ohio State back in 2010.
Oregon is the consensus No. 1 team in the country with a flawless record and strong resume. It has won each of its last four games by at least 21 points, including a 39-18 win over Maryland in Week 11.
In advance of the opening coin toss, each team released its final injury status report. There are several notable updates, including Oregon missing two of its top players:
Wisconsin injury report
OUT: RB Chez Mellusi (for season), QB Tyler Van Dyke (for season), WR Joseph Griffin (for season), S Kamo’i Latu, OL Evan Brown, OL Leyton Nelson, TE Rob Booker, DL James Thompson Jr.
QUESTIONABLE: LB Jaheim Thomas, WR Tyrell Henry, DT Curt Neal
Oregon injury report
OUT: EDGE Jordan Burch, DB Jahlil Florence, DB Khamari Terrell, WR Tez Johnson, WR Kyler Kasper, OL Marcus Harper, OL Matthew Bedford, DL My’keil Gardner
QUESTIONABLE: None
Wisconsin WR Bryson Green injury update
Badgers veteran receiver Bryson Green appears poised for his first game action since suffering a lower-body injury in Wisconsin’s Oct. 5 win over Purdue.
Oregon WR Tez Johnson injury update
Tez Johnson went down with a shoulder injury during Oregon’s win over Michigan a few weeks ago. The injury is not considered season-ending, but he isn’t ready for Saturday’s contest.
Oregon edge Jordan Burch injury update
Oregon star defensive end Jordan Burch injured his ankle in the Ducks’ win over Maryland and will miss the Wisconsin matchup.
Wisconsin WR Tyrell Henry injury update
Wisconsin WR and kick returner Tyrell Henry is questionable for the Oregon game after missing several weeks due to injury. S Hunter Wohler has handled punt return duties in his absence.
Wisconsin and Oregon will kick off at 7:30 p.m. ET, 6:30 p.m. CT on NBC and streaming on Peacock.
