The Badgers were coached by Bret Bielema and played their home games at Camp Randall Stadium in Madison , Wisconsin . Previous season . The 2007 Wisconsin Badgers football team was not expected to win the Big 10 , but with a close loss to Illinois and a 38 - 7 blowout loss to Penn State , expectations were much lower . However , they finished with only one more loss to Big 10 champ Ohio State and managed to get an Outback Bowl bid , only to lose 21 - 17 to the Tennessee Volunteers , who lost the previous Outback Bowl 20 - 10 to the Nittany Lions . Game notes . Minnesota . Season Summary . Wisconsin once again got off to a fast start at 3 - 0 . However , a horrible loss to Michigan and awful games against Ohio State , Penn State , and Iowa derailed the Badgers and sent them plunging down to 3 - 4 overall . An upset over ranked Illinois at home evened Wisconsin ' s record at 4 - 4 , but an awful loss to Michigan State followed and the Badgers fell to 1 - 5 in the Big Ten almost before they could blink . Wisconsin won the remainder of its conference slate against Indiana and Minnesota , but the Badgers followed that up with a decidedly below average effort and wild win over Cal Poly the next week . At the end of the season , Wisconsin was destroyed 42 - 13 in the 2008 Champs Sports Bowl by Florida State . Overall , this was the worst Wisconsin team since the 2001 Badgers , who missed the postseason entirely after a 5 - 7 season . The failure of the team to live up to lofty expectations ( Wisconsin was ranked 8th in the nation before a terrible loss to Michigan ) fueled fan discontent , and Bret Bielema would need a much , much better 2009 season ; he could not afford to coast on goodwill from his 2006 and 2007 teams .
