Wisconsin Badgers fans experienced a true tale of two halves at Camp Randall as the Badgers powered past Middle Tennessee 42-10. The first half was filled with miscues and missed chances, with Wisconsin holding only a slim 14-10 lead at the break. But everything changed after halftime. Quarterback Danny O’Neil stole the spotlight in his first start, going 23-for-27 with 283 yards and 3 touchdowns, showcasing poise and accuracy well beyond his years. The Badgers’ defense once again delivered when it mattered most, shutting out Middle Tennessee in the second half and setting the tone with physical play and timely stops. From frustration to fireworks, this game showed both the growing pains and the potential of Luke Fickell’s team. In this episode, we break down the slow start, the halftime adjustments, O’Neil’s breakout performance, and the defense’s consistency as Wisconsin heads into a massive Week 3 showdown with Alabama.
