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.

Longo was fired Sunday with two games remaining on the Badgers regular-season schedule. The Badgers were 7-6 last season and are 5-5 in 2024 after a rough 16-13 loss to No. 1 Oreg

Wisconsin coach Luke Fickell says he never expected to make a major staff change with the season still going on. Fickell didn’t go into details Monday about why he changed course and fired Phi Longo as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach a day earlier.
