Talkin’ Badgers: A Wisconsin Badgers Football and Basketball Podcast

The NCAA cannot help but continue to tweak transfer portal rules that it has already proven unenforceable. After former Wisconsin football defensive back Xavier Lucas transferred to the Miami Hurricanes, despite the Wisconsin Badgers never submitting Lucas’ portal paperwork, do these rule changes even matter?A late-night edition of Talkin’ Badgers explores the good and bad of a switch to one transfer portal window, how it would have affected Wisconsin this spring, and how much rule-breaking fans should expect (spoiler: a lot). Additionally, some preliminary thoughts on the NCAA's recent decision to allow athletes to wager on professional sports. It will almost certainly lead to the most predictably stupid college football scandals imaginable. *Watch on YouTube*Join Bucky's Burrow!*Follow Dillon Graff*Follow Brandon Cooper*Follow Ryan Eilers*Follow Kedrick on Bluesky or the website formerly known as Twitter*Follow the podcast on Twitter/XWe appreciate you taking the time to read our work at BadgerNotes.com.

Their young quarterbacks’ hips will tie the Michigan Wolverines and Wisconsin Badgers for the next few years. Carter Smith joined Wisconsin football after seeing the writing on the wall in Ann Arbor that read, “Bryce Underwood is coming.” The five-star freshman QB has excelled for Michigan thus far and hopes to lead his team to a victory over Wisconsin on Saturday. Smith will likely not be on the field for Wisconsin, but the question of who will start at quarterback for the Badgers remains up in the air. What is not in question, however, is the effectiveness of the Wolverines’ ground game.Wisconsin has one of the stoutest rush defenses in the country, but Michigan has one of the most effective rushing offenses in the country. The Wolverines have disrupted opposing passing attacks with 14 sacks through four games, and Wisconsin has struggled in pass protection. Kellen Voss of Maize n Brew joins Talkin’ Badgers to preview the ins and outs of the Michigan Wolverines, what the Wisconsin Badgers must do to give themselves a chance at the upset, and to give his assessment from afar on the state of the Badgers under head coach Luke Fickell. *Watch on YouTube*Follow Kellen Voss!*Read Kellen's articles for Maize n Brew*Join Bucky's Burrow!*Follow Kedrick on Bluesky or the website formerly known as Twitter*Follow the podcast on Twitter/XWe appreciate you taking the time to read our work at BadgerNotes.com.

In the hours following the first-ever Wisconsin football loss to the Maryland Terrapins, Seamus Rohrer came to a definitive conclusion: he has seen enough. In a pair of columns this week, Rohrer explains why he believes the Wisconsin Badgers need to move on from Luke Fickell, and grades the performance of UW’s position groups, coaches, and fans one-third of the way through the season. Although things have been disappointing in Madison, there are still some bright spots of young talent on the roster. Rohrer joins Talkin’ Badgers for his weekly feature on “Seamus Says,” to preview his column, defend his arguments, and give Wisconsin fans a bit of hope that the Badgers could pull a surprising upset after the bye.*Watch on YouTube*Read: Wisconsin football needs to move on from Luke Fickell*Read: Grading Wisconsin football at the bye week*Follow Seamus Rohrer*Join Bucky's Burrow!*Follow Kedrick on Bluesky or the website formerly known as Twitter*Follow the podcast on Twitter/XWe appreciate you taking the time to read our work at BadgerNotes.com.

Despite entering the season with low expectations for Wisconsin football, the Talkin’ Badgers After Dark crew was shocked by the disaster inside Camp Randall Stadium on Saturday. Without concrete answers available, an hour of soul-searching ensued. The Wisconsin Badgers have big questions to answer, but the program’s first-ever loss to the Maryland Terrapins should not be left in the rearview mirror. From the offensive line to the defensive secondary, there was plenty of blame to be assigned after the 27-10 defeat. Ultimately, the buck stops with the head coach in a major college football program. A sixth-consecutive Big Ten loss has left Wisconsin at a crossroads. Self-imposed lofty expectations have left the Badgers to oversell and underdeliver. Nonetheless, financial realities leave UW with no easy path forward.In the short term, that path still includes two-thirds of the 2025 college football season to play. Those eight games are crucial data points in evaluating Wisconsin’s coaching staff, players, and fan support.*Watch on YouTube*Follow Dillon Graff*Follow Brandon Cooper*Follow Ryan Eilers*Join Bucky's Burrow!*Follow Kedrick on Bluesky or the website formerly known as Twitter*Follow the podcast on Twitter/XWe appreciate you taking the time to read our work at BadgerNotes.com.

Even without speaking himself this week, Luke Fickell’s job security continues to dominate conversations. Cam Wilhorn of Wisconsin Badgers OnSI returns to Talkin' Badgers as the fallout continues after Wisconsin's 27-10 loss to the Maryland Terrapins. Wilhorn assesses what he sees as the worst aspects of the Wisconsin football roster. From the offensive line to the secondary, the Badgers have disappointed through four games. At least one position group, however, has been a welcome surprise. Plus, what did the players say after Saturday's disappointing result? Wilhorn shares the perspective of a couple of Badgers veterans who will be relied upon to provide leadership as Wisconsin has no choice but to "pound the rock" through the Luke Fickell era. *Follow Cam Wilhorn*Read Cam Wilhorn's articles for Wisconsin Badgers OnSI*Watch on YouTube*Join Bucky's Burrow!*Follow Kedrick on Bluesky or the website formerly known as Twitter*Follow the podcast on Twitter/XWe appreciate you taking the time to read our work at BadgerNotes.com.

The last time Wisconsin football had as few yards per rush as they did in their 27-10 loss, its head coach did not coach another football game at UW. Wisconsin’s 1.45 yards per carry on Saturday were the fewest in the Luke Fickell era, and its total 61 yards on the ground were the second-fewest of Fickell’s tenure in Madison. With a bye week upcoming, Wisconsin Badgers fans now have ample time to voice their opinions before Fickell has the chance to coach another game for Wisconsin. Talkin’ Badgers went live late Saturday evening to give fans a voice in that conversation. Between comments, viewers in the live chat, and a special listener call-in, Wisconsin fans sounded off on the state of the Wisconsin football program. *Watch on YouTube*Join Bucky's Burrow!*Follow Kedrick on Bluesky or the website formerly known as Twitter*Follow the podcast on Twitter/XWe appreciate you taking the time to read our work at BadgerNotes.com.

For the fifth time in the past four seasons, and the fourth time in the Luke Fickell era, Wisconsin football has a new “rock bottom.”A loss to the Maryland Terrapins, the first in program history, in which the Wisconsin Badgers never led, is the latest data point showing Wisconsin is not just trending downward; it is in a complete, undeniable tailspin.Between on-field execution failures in a run game that produced 1.5 yards per rush and a baffling decision to trot out an injured starting quarterback behind a far-from-elite offensive line, booing Badgers fans are running out of patience for Fickell and company. Talkin’ Badgers went live immediately following the loss, if not to dissect the play on the field, to at least blow off some steam.*Watch on YouTube*Join Bucky's Burrow!*Follow Dillon Graff*Follow Kedrick on Bluesky or the website formerly known as Twitter*Follow the podcast on Twitter/XWe appreciate you taking the time to read our work at BadgerNotes.com.

Gard Your Fickell joins the show to give a slightly different perspective on the Big Ten opener. The analytics show the Wisconsin Badgers are favored by about a touchdown. If the Badgers are going to stop the Terps, late downs appear to be the key. Plus, a look back at what the new-look offense has shown fans three weeks into the Jeff Grimes era. Although Wisconsin hasn't consistently met the threshold for "explosive" plays, the Badgers seem poised to unlock their true potential.*Watch on YouTube*Join Bucky's Burrow!*Follow Gard Your Fickell*Follow Kedrick on Bluesky or the website formerly known as Twitter*Follow the podcast on Twitter/XWe appreciate you taking the time to read our work at BadgerNotes.com.

After breaking down the film of the loss to the Alabama Crimson Tide, one thing is clear: Wisconsin football has an offensive line problem.Seamus Rohrer joins Talkin' Badgers to share the bad, and even the small amount of good, that he saw from the Wisconsin Badgers' day in Tuscaloosa. From pass protection to the running game, Wisconsin's offensive struggles all seem to stem from its issues up front. Meanwhile, the wide receivers have shown an ability to hang with the best. Against a Maryland Terrapins defensive line that is off to an impressive start, the Badgers will have to turn in a much-improved performance on Saturday. On the other side of the ball, Wisconsin will be challenged by freshman phenom Malik Washington and the Terps' potent passing attack.

Big Ten play awaits Wisconsin football beginning on Saturday inside Camp Randall Stadium. When the Maryland Terrapins come to town, head coach Luke Fickell finds himself in as tenuous a position as ever.With three games in the rearview, Talkin’ Badgers assesses the state of the 2025 Wisconsin Badgers. From the best to the worst position groups on the team, some have room to grow, while others have kept the team afloat. Meanwhile, Wisconsin still has “a mountain to climb.” Can the Badgers reach the summit with Danny O’Neil under center, or do they need starter Billy Edwards Jr. back in the fold before leaving base camp?*Watch on YouTube*Join Bucky's Burrow!*Follow Dillon Graff*Follow Ryan Eilers*Follow Kedrick Stumbris on Bluesky or the website formerly known as Twitter*Follow the podcast on Twitter/XWe appreciate you taking the time to read our work at BadgerNotes.com.

Head coach Luke Fickell addressed the media on Monday following his team's loss to the Alabama Crimson Tide. As Wisconsin football awaits a visit from the Maryland Terrapins, everyone wants to know if Badgers quarterback Billy Edwards Jr. will get the chance to play against his former team. Fickell dove deep into the need for the offensive line to play in unison, its youngest members to grow into their roles, and its ripple effects throughout the offense. Growth up front might be stunted, however, as center Jake Renfro is dealing with another lower-body injury. Plus, why the third-year Badgers head coach is taking a different approach to losses this season. Talkin' Badgers host Kedrick Stumbris argues that the simple willingness to change that attitude is something Fickell deserves credit for–regardless of results. *Watch on YouTube*Join Bucky's Burrow!*Follow Kedrick on Bluesky or the website formerly known as Twitter*Follow the podcast on Twitter/XWe appreciate you taking the time to read our work at BadgerNotes.com.

BadgerNotes writer Seamus Rohrer joins Talkin' Badgers to break down his latest columns on the Wisconsin football defense. Rohrer raves about one Wisconsin Badgers newcomer, but notes that coordinator Mike Tressel's unit as a whole needs some work. What will it take for backup quarterback Danny O'Neil to walk into Bryant-Denny Stadium against the Alabama Crimson Tide and exit with a shocking upset? Although UW had its starts and fits in Week 2 against the Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders, Rohrer argues that a simple sequencing matter made Wisconsin's performance look less impressive than it actually was.

A 42-10 final score gives the appearance of a dominant win over the Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders, but Wisconsin football was far from dominant in the first half. The Wisconsin Badgers have much to improve, but also many reasons to have their heads held high. Chief among those reasons is the play of quarterback Danny O’Niel. With a record-setting performance in his first start as a Badger, the San Diego State transfer played a nearly perfect game. In the instant reaction episode of Talkin’ Badgers, BadgerNotes publisher Dillon Graff, live from the Camp Randall Stadium press box, joined host Kedrick Stumbris to break down their immediate takeaways, including thoughts on Wisconsin’s offense, defense, special teams, and coaching.If you want to see these episodes as soon as they go live after every Wisconsin Badgers football game, subscribe to the Talkin’ Badgers YouTube channel!*Watch on YouTube*Join Bucky's Burrow!*Follow Dillon Graff*Follow Kedrick on Bluesky or the website formerly known as Twitter*Follow the podcast on Twitter/XWe appreciate you taking the time to read our work at BadgerNotes.com.
