The Wisconsin Badgers close their 2025 season with a road trip to face the rival Minnesota Golden Gophers.
Wisconsin is 4-7 entering the Week 14 matchup following a statement home win over Illinois. The team is 2-1 in its last three games, both of those wins coming over ranked opponents. That improved play also directly follows Wisconsin confirming that head coach Luke Fickell would return in 2026. While a bowl appearance is likely out of the question, the 2025 Badgers are beginning to change the program’s trajectory. A win over Minnesota would only further that momentum.
Minnesota, on the other hand, enters Saturday at 6-5 on the season. It has lost two straight and three of its last four, the latest a 38-35 loss at Northwestern.
Wisconsin will look to reclaim Paul Bunyan’s Axe in the rivalry showdown. As we begin to preview the contest, here Las Vegas’ opening projection.
