The sight for the Badgers football team Saturday afternoon was that of Nebraska fans flooding Memorial Stadium in Lincoln, Neb., listening to House of Pain's "Jump Around" and celebrating bowl eligibility for the first time in eight years. That came after the Badgers were crushed 44-25.

Badgers fans and former players have long taken pride in this streak because it's a testament to the program’s sustained success. But after falling to Nebraska in a humbling 44-25 defeat, Wisconsin now finds itself one loss away from its first losing season since 2001.
