3. Optimism for the season

The Badgers are off to a great start to the season and have already beaten a couple of power conference teams. That’s the perfect way to tip-off the year after their disappointing 2017-18 campaign.

The quick start has generated a ton of buzz and optimism for the rest of the season. This tone is completely different then what Badgers’ fans experienced last year when they spent most of the season down in the dumps with no light at the end of the tunnel.

Even with a lot of games left to play, we are thankful for the current optimism surrounding the 2018-19 Badgers. No matter how this season plays out, at least Wisconsin fans held their heads high to begin the season. That’s more than we could say for last year.
