The Wisconsin Badgers’ football season is nearing its end, and UW still has a chance to compile the best record under head coach Luke Fickell.In order to hit the mark of eight wins for Fickell’s best record, his squad must win two of its last three games, which will see them take on Maryland, Purdue, and Minnesota. The Badgers are projected by several metrics to take down the Terrapins, though anything can happen in college football, especially in the Big Ten.
Now, it's confirmed that the Badgers will head to Maryland for a 12:00 p.m. ET kickoff on Saturday, Nov. 14. The game will air nationwide on FS1.

This was the make-or-break season for longtime Maryland head coach Mike Locksley.
Locksley had led Maryland to three bowl games during his tenure, but his last two seasons saw only eight combined wins. After a 2-0 start, Maryland had quite the downward spiral.Locksley was fired following Maryland’s 37-30 loss. Since then, Aazaar Abdul-Rahim took over; in his first game at the interim helm, Abdul-Rahim fell to the Fighting Illini in a close 20-17 loss. The two have squared off five times since 2014; in the five encounters, the Badgers hold a 4-1 record, with the last game ending in a 27-10 loss for Wisconsin in 2025.
