In a highly anticipated final regular season matchup, the Wisconsin Badgers will take on the Minnesota Golden Gophers in the ‘Battle for the Axe.’ After a tough loss to Nebraska, the Badgers are looking to secure a bowl game berth with a win against their rival. The game is seen as winnable for Wisconsin, who will have home-field advantage in Madison.
The key for Wisconsin will be stepping up their defense to limit Minnesota’s quarterback and force the running game. Safety Hunter Wohler will be returning from injury to boost the defense. Quarterback Braedyn Locke will also need to continue his strong performance from the last game, where he showed promise with 292 passing yards and three touchdowns.
With a lot on the line, including extending their bowl streak and bragging rights in the rivalry, Wisconsin will need to bring their A-game and set the tone early in the game. The energy will be high in Camp Randall Stadium, and the Badgers will look to capitalize on that to secure a crucial victory.
