RYAN HOPKINS ERA BEGINS? Barry Alvarez on Wisconsin's Win & Bowl Eligibility
A new era may be beginning for Wisconsin football! Legendary Badgers head coach Barry Alvarez joins former Wisconsin players Derek Engler and Tarek Saleh, with host Jesse Nelson, for the latest edition of The Barry Alvarez Show on ESPN Madison.
Wisconsin bounced back from its shutout loss at Iowa with a convincing 31-10 victory over Rutgers at Camp Randall Stadium. The biggest story? True freshman quarterback Ryan Hopkins made his first career start and delivered an impressive performance, throwing for 241 yards and three touchdowns. Hopkins showed poise and playmaking ability, connecting with Eugene Hilton Jr., Ryan Schwendeman and Jacob Harris for touchdowns.
Could Hopkins be the answer at quarterback for Wisconsin moving forward? With Colton Joseph dealing with the physical toll of the season, the guys discuss Hopkins' impressive debut, what his emergence means for the Badgers' offense, and whether the freshman is the quarterback Wisconsin can build around.
The victory also clinched bowl eligibility for the Badgers for the first time since the 2023 season!
Next up, Wisconsin travels to College Park to take on Maryland. Can the Badgers build on their momentum, continue developing their young quarterback, and pick up another Big Ten victory?
