Wisconsin made the decision to move on from offensive coordinator Phil Longo on Sunday afternoon, instituting a major change with just two games left in the season. The Badgers need at least one more win to extend their streak of 22 straight seasons with a bowl game.

The offense has been held to 13 or fewer points in its last three games (all losses) and quarterback Braedyn Locke has struggled after the Badgers lost starting signal-caller Tyler Van Dyke due to a knee injury in a 42-10 defeat to then-No. 4 Alabama.

On Nov. 17, one day after the Badgers experienced a devastating 16-13 home loss to No. 1 Oregon, the Badgers fired offensive coordinator Phil Longo. This game saw the Badgers take a 13-6 lead into the fourth quarter before allowing Oregon to score 10 unanswered in the fourth quarter.
