Wisconsin Football Tickets: Are the Badgers the Most Overlooked Team in the Country?
Wisconsin football tickets are always a hot commodity. Since Barry Alvarez took charge in 1990, the Badgers have seen remarkable success, claiming three Rose Bowl titles, appearing in numerous other prestigious bowls, and celebrating a Heisman Trophy winner, RB Ron Dayne.
When Alvarez retired from coaching after 2005 to focus full-time as Athletic Director, he passed the torch to Bret Bielema. At the time, Bielema was the youngest coach in Division 1 football and relatively unknown in the national media. Despite a young roster in 2006, the Badgers finished 11-1 in the regular season, yet still flew under the radar for the BCS.
The Big Ten Powers
Wisconsin's achievements were overshadowed by the dominance of Ohio State and Michigan. The Badgers didn't face Ohio State and narrowly lost an early-season road game to Michigan. With both teams unbeaten until their matchup, there was little room to spotlight Wisconsin. Plus, the BCS allows only two teams from any conference to play in BCS bowl games, sidelining Wisconsin all season.
The Schedule Challenge
While Wisconsin football tickets are hard to come by, the team's schedule didn't boost their BCS prospects. The BCS partly ranks teams by their schedule strength, and playing teams like San Diego State, Western Illinois, Buffalo, and Bowling Green didn’t impress the computers or voters. A game with Oregon State fell through last minute, which didn't help matters.
Pre-Season Ranking Hurdles
Under the BCS system, starting the season with a high ranking is crucial. Wisconsin wasn’t a familiar contender this year, with a new coach and a young, yet talented team. Their starting RB was a redshirt freshman, they replaced their entire WR and TE core, and their OL?"usually Wisconsin’s strength?"was largely untested except for standout Joe Thomas. These factors contributed to their low pre-season ranking, making it hard to gain traction.
Ultimately, going 11-1 in the Big Ten is no small feat. Whoever faces Wisconsin in their bowl game will soon realize how underrated they are. Wisconsin football tickets will be in high demand, as Badger fans are renowned for their enthusiastic support, especially on the road.
