Chris McIntosh met with the former Super Bowl champion NFL head coach the day after the Wisconsin Badgers' loss to Maryland

Wisconsin will need to right the ship immediately if it has any chance at returning to a bowl game. However, that in-season goal seems short-sighted. National media, Badgers fans and several former players all saw Saturday's loss as a larger indictment of the state of the program under Luke Fickell.

Wisconsin legend Melvin Gordon took to social media to react to the Badgers' blowout home loss to Maryland on Saturday.

After an ugly 38-14 loss to the Alabama Crimson Tide on the road in Week 3, the Wisconsin Badgers needed to bounce back in a major way against the Maryland Terrapins. They did exactly the opposite, getting blown out in a 27-10 defeat in Week 4 in a must-win game.

Here are the offensive snap counts from the Week 4 loss to Maryland.

Saturday was supposed to be the start of a new season for the Badgers, a chance to put last week's loss to Alabama behind them and start

The foundation for the Badgers' second straight loss was laid in the first quarter when they committed three critical mistakes that led to 14 points.

Malik Washington threw two touchdown passes to Shaleak Knotts and also ran for a score in his Big Ten debut as Maryland remained unbeaten by trouncing Wisconsin 27-10 on Saturday.

Coming off an ugly 38-14 loss to the Alabama Crimson Tide, the Wisconsin Badgers are in a must-win game on Saturday against the Maryland Terrapins in Week 4, with kickoff slated for 11:00 a.m. at Camp Randall Stadium. Last week, the Badgers were simply outmatched on both sides of the ball, getting dominated for much of the game without an answer.
