Wisconsin (4-2) will take on the Northwestern Wildcats (3-3) a week after destroying Rutgers in New Jersey. The Badger offense is finally clicking under quarterback Braedyn Locke, and the defense has allowed just 13 points over the last two contests. However, Wisconsin lost in disappointing fashion to the Wildcats in 2023, so they'll look to avenge that loss at the temporary stadium in Evanston. Here's what to know before the game.
