It has been a rough season for Wisconsin, but the Badgers have a shot to end the season on a high note.
After entering the season with expectations to compete for a trip to the CFB Playoff, Paul Chryst’s squad has struggled to a 7-4 record. But with a win over rival Minnesota, the Badgers would still finish with eight wins in what has been a down year.
The Wisconsin-Minnesota rivalry has arguably the best trophy involved as the winner receives a giant axe dubbed “Paul Bunyan’s Axe.” The series has also been all Badgers of late as Wisconsin has won 14 straight, including a 31-0 shutout in 2017.
As if anyone needs a reason to get hyped up for the rivalry showdown, Wisconsin Football released a chilling “Axe Week” teaser trailer Sunday evening:
