The Wisconsin Badgers (4-2, 2-1 Big Ten) will look to build on their comeback momentum on Saturday when they take on the rival Northwestern Wildcats (3-3, 1-2 Big Ten). I’m trying to make it last.
The Badgers enter the contest red-hot having won their second straight game by a combined 94-13 margin. These two wins were the best performances of the Luke Fickell era to date, with the dominance of Phil Longo’s Air Raid offense and strong play by the defense.
Meanwhile, Northwestern enters Saturday with some momentum of its own. The Wildcats defeated Maryland 37-10 on the road last Friday, snapping a two-game losing streak and earning their first Big Ten win of the season. Since Jack Roush took over as quarterback in Week 3, the team has looked more complete on both sides of the football. Kickoff for today’s game is 11 a.m., with pregame scheduled for 9 a.m. on WRCE AM 1450 and FM 107.7.
The Houston Texans, who are in first place in the AFC South, will travel to Lambeau Field to take on the Green Bay Packers, aiming for their fourth straight win. Green Bay has won the last two games. The Packers have won the last three games against the Texans, but they haven’t played against them since 2020. Houston’s only win against the Packers came in 2008 at Lambeau Field. This game will feature two of the league’s top young quarterbacks, Houston’s CJ Stroud and Green. Jordan Love of Bay; This NFL game will begin at 10am pregame on WRCO FM 100.9 with kickoff tomorrow (Sunday) at noon.
