Wisconsin football’s 2025 season opener against Miami (OH) has officially been moved from Saturday, Aug. 30, to Thursday, Aug. 28.
The game kicks off what is expected to be a challenging 2025 schedule. Wisconsin visits Alabama to close nonconference play, then has Big Ten matchups against Michigan, Washington, Iowa, Minnesota, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio State and Oregon.
Wisconsin’s season-opener against Miami (OH), its Week 2 contest vs. Middle Tennessee and its Week 4 matchup against Maryland project to be the easiest games on its schedule. Otherwise, every other opponent projects to finish the season bowl-eligible, if not competing for College Football Playoff appearances.
Wisconsin’s Thursday night opener against Miami (OH) will be the team’s third consecutive opener against a MAC opponent. The Badgers defeated Buffalo 38-17 to open the 2023 season, then Western Michigan 28-14 to open 2024.
The game will be played in primetime. Both the kickoff time and broadcast information have yet to be released.
