Big Ten play is about to kickoff and the Wisconsin Badgers make their first road trip of the year to the University of Southern California Trojans!  New starting QB Braedyn Locke will have his hands full with new Defensive Coordinator D'Anton Lynn and the USC defense.  On the other side of the ball, Miller Moss leads the trojans in the post Caleb Williams era and so far, he's off to a good start.  What can Luke Fickell, Phil Longo, and Mike Tressel draw up to stop USC and get a massive win for the Badgers?!?!

Rajeev and Justin give their keys to the game, and of course, final score predictions!

The Luke Fickell led Wisconsin Badgers had a much needed bye week in advance of a huge trip out west to play the Southern California (USC) Trojans.  With Tyler Van Dyke officially out for the remainder of the season, its Braedyn Locke's time to run the offense.  What can we expect after a 2 week break? Should we see a better version of last year's Locke?  USC had a big loss at Michigan yesterday.  Do we feel differently about this game now that USC has lost to a team that had virtually no passing attack?  So much to discuss going into the crazy week. 

Updated predictions from Rajeev and Justin and what do fans need to see from this team to feel good about the rest of the season?!

Week 1 is officially in the books.  Luke Fickell and the Wisconsin Badgers defeated the Western Michigan Broncos at Camp Randall on Friday night.  While a win is a win...how do we feel about what we saw?  Badgers fans hoped to answer some questions about this team, but it appears we've been left with more questions, especially about Phil Longo's offense and the inability to create big plays.  Does this change our perceptions of this team, or is it just one week??

Nick Osen from 247 Sports joins the show to help break down week 1!
