The #2-ranked Indiana Hoosiers are one win away from clinching a berth in the Big Ten Championship, and the only thing standing in their way is a classic Big Ten grinder: the Wisconsin Badgers. On tonight’s Hoosier Tailgate, Coach Griff breaks down everything you need to know heading into Saturday’s Senior Day showdown at Memorial Stadium.

We’ll dive into:

🔥 Wisconsin’s stingy, hard-nosed defense — why their front six is one of the most disciplined the Hoosiers have faced

🔥 IU’s offensive keys for attacking the Badgers’ pressure looks

🔥 Matchup breakdowns: Mendoza, Hemby, Black, Sarratt, Cooper, and the Hoosier playmakers

🔥 Wisconsin’s top returners and their 2025 production

🔥 What last week’s heroic game-winning drive vs Penn State means heading into this matchup

🔥 Senior Day storylines, X-factors, injury notes, and Coach Griff’s prediction

This is your full Big Noon Kickoff weekend primer — everything IU fans need before Saturday at noon.
