It’s been an emotional week for the program, but the first game under Jim Leonhard will speak volumes about the heart of this Wisconsin Badgers team.

Despite Wisconsin’s uninspiring 2-3 start to the season, the Big Ten West remains wide open – but the road to Indy needs to start with a road win against Northwestern.

Northwestern is bad, like really, really bad.

I’m not expecting anything crazy, but I’m hoping UW will play fast and take some chances against the Wildcats.

It might not look pretty, but Wisconsin should win this one despite their poor track record in Evanston. Even though it’s week six, this is a must-win for the Badgers.

Final Score Prediction: Wisconsin 24, Northwestern 14
