If Wisconsin finishes the season with a losing record is it really a marquee win at that point? I mean, sure, there a big name opponent, but if they finish the season with a losing record I would argue it deflates the importance of that win versus if they were their usual, competitive, ranked selves. Harbaugh is still 0-11 in games where he is the underdog, still 7-12 vs. ranked Big 10 teams, still 11-16 vs. ranked teams, still can't beat Ohio State, and has yet to prove he's anything but pedestrian against Sparty. If Wisconsin is a dud this year then the win isn't worth as much and it hurts our strength of schedule too.
