Can Wisconsin back up Colton Joseph's bold offensive claim?
It doesnt take a Wisconsin Badger aficionado to see that Luke Fickells Wisconsin squads have struggled to assert themselves as offensive powerhouses.Last season, the Badgers finished their 4-8 campaign with the third-worst scoring offense in the nation, scoring a paltry 12.8 points per game.However, after an offensive revamp that has seen a new starting quarterback, Colton Joseph, join the program, there has been a refresh button hit heading into a crucial season for Fickell.In a recent interview with the Big Ten Network, the Old Dominion transfer was asked what to expect from the Badgers 2026 offense."Explosiveness, I think we're going to be explosive. Big plays down the field, big runs, big passes, all of it, and we're going to score a lot of points," Joseph said."Explosiveness. . . . We're gonna score a lot of points."
