The Wisconsin Badgers will travel to the Big House to take on the Michigan Wolverines this next season for the first time since 2020. They announced the game will be a "Maize Out," which basically means the crowd is to wear yellow.
Wisconsin fans were quick to respond to social media posts about the "Maize Out." This was done to remind Michigan fans what happened last time Wisconsin came to the Big House, what color stands out in a sea of yellow, and other funny things.

Wisconsin beat Michigan 49-11 when the Badgers last came to Michigan
There's not a ton of hope for the Badgers' loaded season, but there are a few games that Badger fans are hoping to steal. One of those is beating the Wolverines on the road. The last time Wisconsin came to Michigan, they were able to stomp the Wolverines to a tune of 49-11 back in 2020.
The teams faced off again in 2021 at Camp Randall, and the Wolverines beat the Badgers 38-17. Those were the last two meetings, and fans of both schools are looking forward to the chance to play each other again.
It's a good opportunity for Badger fans as the Wolverines aren't as good as they should or could be. The Wolverines finished 8-5 overall last year with a 5-4 conference record, which was middle of the pack for the Big Ten. While they were able to beat the eventual national champion, the Ohio State Buckeyes, they also lost to Illinois and Washington.
Beating Michigan at home is a game that Wisconsin fans would love to win. It would be another opportunity for the Badgers to dance in the locker room of the Big House.
