Wisconsin football’s full Big Ten and non-conference schedule for 2024-2028
Wisconsin had its future Big Ten Conference schedule through 2028 released yesterday.
The Big Ten is set to welcome Oregon, Washington, USC and UCLA in 2024, while also eliminating the East-West Division model. A new flex scheduling model will go into effect, with select protected rivalries played by schools each season. The Big Ten calls it the ‘Flex Protect XVIII Model.’
For Wisconsin, those protected rivalries are Iowa and Minnesota. The rest of its schedule each season will rotate on a consistent basis through the rest of the conference.
The rest of the Badgers’ 2023 slate is manageable and should end with a trip to Indianapolis for the Big Ten Championship. A clear takeaway from the schedules listed below is the road is going to get extremely tough.
