Quarterback Decision
Wisconsin will keep freshman Ryan Hopkins in the starting lineup at quarterback for the upcoming game at Maryland. The move follows his first career start, where he completed 18 of 24 passes for 241 yards and three touchdowns in a 31-10 home victory over Rutgers.
Joseph's Recent Struggles
Colton Joseph, a transfer from Old Dominion, had started the team's first nine games before the switch. His production has declined recently, with no 100-yard passing games in his last three outings and a combined 11-for-30 performance for 156 yards in losses to UCLA and Iowa.
Team Plans Moving Forward
Coach Luke Fickell indicated Joseph will stay involved in the offense. The program now has two quarterbacks capable of running the system, a contrast to recent seasons that ended with injuries to projected starters Billy Edwards Jr. and Tyler Van Dyke. The 6-foot-3, 205-pound Hopkins arrived as a four-star recruit from the 2026 class.
