Wisconsin's football team is packing their bags and heading to Lincoln to face off against the Nebraska Cornhuskers this Saturday. Kickoff is scheduled for 2:30 p. m. at Memorial Stadium. Last weekend, the Badgers fell short against the No. 1 Oregon Ducks, with a final score of 16-13. Despite their best defensive efforts, holding the top offense in the country to just one touchdown, they couldn't gather enough points to win.

Now, they're focused on their upcoming matchup against Nebraska, aiming to secure the Freedom Trophy for an 11th consecutive year. This game holds high stakes for both teams as they strive to become bowl-eligible. Wisconsin enters the game as slight underdogs, with analysts giving them a 1. 5-point disadvantage. They're looking for their sixth win after a recent streak of three losses.

Nebraska is also in a tough spot, having missed out on the chance for bowl eligibility in their last four games. Both teams are facing setbacks with injuries as well. Wisconsin will be without star safety Hunter Wohler and wide receiver Will Pauling. Linebacker Jaheim Thomas and defensive lineman James Thompson Jr. are also questionable for the game.
