Hear from Luke Fickell after the Badgers’ 24-10 loss in Week 11.
Arguably their worst loss in recent memory was the Wisconsin Badgers falling to 5-5 with a 24-10 loss to the Northwestern Wildcats in Week 11.
It was an ugly first half for the Badgers, who allowed points on all four of Northwestern’s first-half drives but failed to score a touchdown, which came in the final minute of the game.
Quarterback Tanner Mordecai returned and completed 31/45 passes for 255 yards, but the offense was stagnant for most of the afternoon, with the passing game consistently going the distance while the running game was all but non-existent.
Defensively, the Badgers had their worst first half of the season and struggled to get off the field on third downs as Northwestern capitalized on each of their first 10 chances, leading to 24 points in the first 30 minutes.
Speaking to reporters after the game, head coach Luke Fickell called the loss “embarrassing” and shared that he doesn’t currently know where the team’s identity stands.
