The two teams have played three times with the Utah leading the series 2-1. The most recent meeting came in the 1996 Copper Bowl, a 38-10 victory for the Badgers. A freshman running back named Ron Dayne ran for 246 yards and three touchdowns.
With Utah now on the schedule, Wisconsin has at least one non-conference game against a Power 5 opponent on its slate through 2033.
