Overview

• Maryland beat Wisconsin 27-10 in Madison after the Badgers fell behind 20-0 at halftime, drawing boos and "Fire Fickell" chants from the student section.
• Athletic director Chris McIntosh publicly expressed confidence in Fickell and the program following the loss, and no administrative change has been announced.
• Wisconsin’s first half featured an interception plus a blocked field goal and a blocked punt, and the team did not score a touchdown until the final 28 seconds.
• Starting quarterback Billy Edwards Jr. returned from a knee sprain but exited after one series, forcing extended snaps for backups Danny O’Neil and Hunter Simmons.
• Fickell is 15-15 at Wisconsin with six straight Big Ten losses, and reports place a potential season-end buyout at about $25 million as the Badgers face Michigan, Iowa, Ohio State and Oregon next.
