Wisconsin fans react to huge jump for the Badgers in the AP Top 25

The Wisconsin Badgers were among the few teams in the rankings this week that didn't lose a game. An incredible 75% of the AP Top 25 lost at least one game last week. The Badgers, on the other hand, beat Ohio State and then USC on the road. Those wins, and the losses around them propelled the Badgers up six spots in the AP Top 25 poll this week.

It's not super common for teams to jump that much without some big victories during the week. However, the Badgers did it without a ranked win, and both of their wins this week came from outside the NET top 30, with Ohio State currently at 36 while USC is at 75. This just shows that being a program that can simply continue to win will be helpful for a big rise as other programs around them grab losses.

Wisconsin fans took to social media to celebrate the continued success and the rise in the AP Poll this week.

Any Wisconsin fan would tell you the rankings mean nothing unless you keep winning, and that's what the future needs to hold for the Badgers. They are still on the road in Los Angeles and have to take on a wild card of a team in the UCLA Bruins. A team that has big wins and big losses on their resume already this season. It's a team that can get hot, and they will want to be that way at home.

Then Wisconsin comes back home to take on Nebraska. Both are great opportunities to continue building the resume and climb higher in the AP Top 25.

They are also all the way up to fourth in the Big Ten standings and only two games outside of first, with Michigan State currently undefeated in the conference. Everything is still in front of them with plenty of opportunities in store.
