Wisconsin Badgers fans are fed up with head coach Luke Fickell after their latest loss to the USC Trojans
After their latest loss, the Badgers have become impatient with head coach Luke Fickell. This is only his second season with the program after serving as the head coach of the Cincinnati Bearcats for many years. Here’s what Wisconsin fans said about him after the game:
Wisconsin is currently 0-4 against ranked teams under head coach Luke Fickell.

Luke Fickell could have been the Bobby Bowden of Cincinnati football. He will be perpetually mediocre in Wisconsin.
— Jon White (@JonWhite17) September 28, 2024
Fans will have to be patient. If this continues, there will be a lot of things the Badgers will need to change this offseason. It is possible that Luke Fickell could look for fresh coordinators in the transfer portal and find better players.
Next matchup is against the Purdue Boilermakers
The Wisconsin Badgers’ next matchup will be against the Purdue Boilermakers. There are 1-3 a year. On Saturday, Purdue lost to the Nebraska Cornhuskers 28-10. The Boilermakers look like one of the worst teams in the BIG10 Conference.
If the Wisconsin Badgers and Luke Fickell don’t win against Purdue next weekend, fans will have a demanding time. Wisconsin needs to win this game if it doesn’t want to be considered the laughingstock of the BIG10 conference this season.
