Badgers Fall to Notre Dame, and Packers Prepare for Vikings (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this week's episode of The Wisconsin Sportscast, Lucas and Oates reflect on Wisconsin's loss in Lambeau. The Badgers fell 41 - 13 to Notre Dame this weekend, showing an impressive first half and a depressive second half. The Badgers looked very physical in the first half, which is exactly what Oates said they needed to do, but couldn’t sustain. This weekend should be a better story as they return to Camp Randall to take on Western Illinois. Sticking with college football, the MAC wants Wester
Badger Volleyball’s Trial by Fire, and Badger Football Must Get Physical (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this week's episode of The Wisconsin Sportscast, Lucas and Oates are back in the booth after meeting some friends. Kelly Sheffield and the Badgers Volleyball Team are starting their season with a series of tough matches on the horizon.

In this week's episode of The Wisconsin Sportscast, Lucas and Oates take a look at some long-time Wisconsin high school football rivalries. Wisconsin high school football kicks off for the first time of the season this week. Looking at recent performances, Lucas and Oates ask: why are Madison teams down in recent years? It’s down to the farm system, Oates says, which are lacking in the state capitol. Just look at the Milwaukee suburbs or even the Madison suburbs: programs with a lot of money and
Packers Return to the Field, and New Faces Suit Up in Madison (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this week's episode of The Wisconsin Sportscast, Lucas and Oates rejoice at the return of football. The Packers take the field on Thursday in their first preseason game against Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers. Lucas and Oates agree that we likely won’t see Rodgers actually play, but Oates hopes to see Jordan Love get at least one series in. He could use the practice of playing against actual people before the regular season begins. The Wisconsin Badgers, meanwhile, put on pads for practice for
