Photos: Wisconsin Badgers grind out victory over Army Black Knights at Camp Randall

It’s simple: Win out and Wisconsin will be back in the Big Ten title game for the fourth time in coach Paul Chryst’s seven seasons. Simple, but not easy. 

The Badgers climbed back to .500 on the season, but Saturday's win over the Black Knights likely won’t do much for them in terms of perception nationally. Here's why.

Noah Burks proposed to his girlfriend of six years, Western Kentucky soccer standout Chandler Backes, in front of family and friends after the Badgers' win over Army.

Wisconsin's offense hasn't lived up to preseason hype, but it can do enough to help the team win the second half of the season. 

Florida coach Dan Mullen had a lot of explaining to do Saturday after the 20th-ranked Gators lost to LSU and last week's coach-in-big-trouble Ed Orgeron.

Leno Chenal and Jack Sanborn combined for 29 tackles, the game-sealing strip-sack and held Army's triple-option running attack to less than 200 yards. Up next? A crucial stretch that decides the Big Ten West.

Win out beginning with the Oct. 23 game against Purdue, and the Badgers are in the Big Ten Conference Championship game. 

UW’s athletic department tweeted two hours before the game that “unforeseen circumstances specific to this game” created a situation in which not all the entry gates were fully staffed.

Aidan O’Connell threw for 374 yards and accounted for three touchdowns, David Bell had a career-best 240 yards receiving, and visiting Purdue beat No. 2 Iowa 24-7 on Saturday in Iowa City.

Getting a two-score lead before the half was important enough to Wisconsin coach Paul Chryst that he pulled out some new wrinkles on the Badgers’ fourth drive.

Cincinnati sits at No. 2 in the latest Top 25, right behind top-ranked Georgia and ahead of No. 3 Oklahoma, No. 4 Alabama and No. 5 Ohio State.

About the only thing not going Badgers kicker Collin Larsh's way this season is not being on scholarship. 

The freshman from Fond du Lac had a lot to learn about being a collegiate running back when he arrived at UW, but he was physically prepared to do so. Here’s just how he accomplished that.

Chandler leaves the UW football program after recording two catches for 28 yards, 10 kick returns for 241 yards and one rushing attempt for 18 yards in 10 career games.
