Badgers Revamp Offense with New QB

The Wisconsin Badgers are poised for a major turnaround in 2026 after a brutal 4-8 season, anchored by a dismal 135th-ranked offense and quarterback woes. Head coach Luke Fickell returns for his fourth year, bringing in a new QB, Colton Joseph from Old Dominion — a mobile threat with over 1,000 rushing yards and 13 TDs last season. On defense, sophomore Mason Posa emerged as a breakout star with 25 tackles and 4 TFLs, ready to anchor the unit. The season kicks off with a high-stakes showdown against Notre Dame at Lambeau Field on Aug. 28, followed by a brutal Big Ten slate, including a daunting Penn State opener on Sept. 26 — a rivalry the Nittany Lions have dominated for years. Health and execution could be the difference between rebuilding and redemption. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
