The Wisconsin Badgers (5-4, 3-3 Big Ten) will host the No. 1 Oregon Ducks (10-0, 7-0 Big Ten) at Camp Randall Stadium on Saturday at 7:30 p.m. ET, 6:30 p.m. CT. It will be the seventh all-time meeting between the two programs.

The Badgers and Ducks have split their six prior matchups, but Oregon comes in on a three-game win streak, including Rose Bowl wins in 2011 and 2019.

The Ducks defeated Wisconsin 28-27 in the Rose Bowl on Jan. 1, 2020 with quarterback Justin Herbert leading the Ducks to a game-winning drive with less than eight minutes left while trailing 27-21.

In the contest, Herbert was limited to 14 completions on 20 pass attempts for 138 yards and an interception, but he did score three times on the ground, churning out 29 rushing yards in the game.

Over on the Badgers’ side of things, quarterback Jack Coan completed 23 of 25 passes for 186 yards and a touchdown, also throwing an interception in the contest. Wide receiver Quintez Cephus was on the receiving end of the touchdown, finishing his day with 59 yards and the score on seven receptions.

Oregon enters Saturday’s matchup after a 39-18 win over Maryland in Week 11, reaching the 30-point threshold for the ninth game in a row. Quarterback Dillon Gabriel had 183 passing yards and three touchdowns in the win.

Wisconsin was idle in Week 11 after getting crushed by Iowa 42-10 on the road in Week 10, losing their second game in a row. Luke Fickell and his squad have a tough task ahead of them against the top team in the country for their first meeting as Big Ten foes Saturday.

MADISON, Wis. – Wisconsin voters saw a record number of school referendums on their ballots in 2024 and approved a record number of the funding requests, according to a report released Thursday.

The Wisconsin Policy Forum study found that school districts asked voters to sign off on a record 241 referendums, eclipsing the old record of 240 set in 1998. The referendums sought a total of $5.9 billion, a new record ask. The old record was $3.3 billion set in 2022.

Voters approved 169 referendums, breaking the old record of 140 set in 2018. They authorized a record total of $4.4 billion in new funding for school districts, including $3.3 billion in debt. The old record, unadjusted for inflation, was $2.7 billion set in 2020.

A total of 145 districts – more than a third of the state’s 421 public school districts – passed a referendum in 2024. Voters in the Madison Metropolitan School District approved the largest referendums in the state, signing off on a record $507 million debt referendum and a $100 million operating referendum.

The report attributed the rising number of referendums to increases in inflation outpacing increases in the state’s per pupil revenue limits, which restrict how much money districts can raise through property taxes and state aid.

Increasing pressure to raise wages and the loss of federal COVID-19 pandemic relief aid also have played a role, according to the report.
