Wisconsin football’s trip out West will come with a later kickoff time.
The Badgers‘ Oct. 25 game at No. 6 Oregon will kick off at 6 p.m. CT and air on FS1, the Big Ten announced Oct. 19.
It will be Wisconsin’s first road game against Oregon — in its second year as a Big Ten school — since 2001, when Barry Alvarez’s Badgers suffered a 31-28 loss in Eugene in a battle between two ranked teams.

The most recent Wisconsin-Oregon game was last year at Camp Randall Stadium, where the then-No. 1 Ducks escaped with a 16-13 win over the unranked Badgers.
This wlll be Wisconsin’s second consecutive game against a top-10 team. (The Badgers are coming off a 34-0 loss to No. 1 Ohio State.) ESPN gives UW a mere 2.8% chance of winning against Oregon.
Oregon is 6-1 this season, with the one loss being on Oct. 11 against then-No. 7 Indiana. The Ducks are coming off a 56-10 win against Rutgers.
