Spring is almost upon us, and as programs around the country are starting to put together the final pieces of their spring practices and plans, Wisconsin is doing the same. The Badgers are looking to get going in little over a week for spring practices. Luke Fickell has rebuilt his offensive coaching staff and he's determined to put together a better product next season after having one of the worst seasons for Wisconsin football in a long time in 2024.

When do spring practices start? Things really kick off for the Badgers on March 13 when the players will descend on Camp Randall to begin working for the 2025 football season. However, the bigger question might be whether or not there will be a spring game to attend and watch. There are many programs around the country that are cancelling those games with references to "tampering" as the primary reason.

Wisconsin didn't have one last year with only 15 spring practices. They cited construction at Camp Randall as the primary reason. There was no "open to the public" scrimmage. Will the Badgers have one in 2025?

When is the Wisconsin Badgers 2025 spring game?

The school has yet to officially announce a spring game. That being said, the speculation is that there might be one or something open to the public. The date being something on April 19, 2025. Thanks to the following video posted by the social media team for Wisconsin football:

It is a video of a Wisconsin football helmet being pulled out of the snow and then the words, "Spring is Coming" with the date 4.19.25. At the bottom appears a scrawl of "more details to follow." That was posted on February 21 with the caption: "See you soon at Camp Randall." There have yet to be more details, and many are curious about what that date is.
