Was there anything inspiring about the Badgers win over Western Illinois? (09.17.2026)

The Badgers defeated Western Illinois on the football field, but didn't exactly leave Badger nation inspired, even with a lopsided victory. Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reporters Mark Stewart and John Steppe join host JR Radcliffe to discuss the self-described mediocre day from quarterback Colton Joseph, the running game, the lack of turnovers on defense and what we need to see in the final tune-up against Eastern Michigan this weekend before Big Ten play begins. 

They also discuss the latest for the women's volleyball team, including some injury updates, and look ahead to the men's basketball and women's hockey seasons on the horizon.
