“Let me say this: they better get season tickets right now because before long, they won’t be able to.”
These were the words of head coach Barry Alvarez the day he took over the Badgers, a squad that had averaged a measly two wins per season in the three years before he took the reins. Now, 15 years and 108 wins later, Alvarez will be entering his final season as head coach, with defensive coordinator Bret Bielema set to take over next fall.
