Earlier this week, head football coach Paul Chryst was fired from Wisconsin. Chryst was 67-26 in about eight and a half seasons at the helm of the Badgers. Here is a look at the Wisconsin football program since 2008 (the first year that of complete data I have). This time period only covers the last five seasons of head football coach Bret Bielema (2008-2012), Gary Anderson (2013-2014), and Paul Chryst (2015-2022*). After the figure below is a more detailed look at the Wisconsin Badgers football program during head coach Chryst's tenure based on the Complex Invasion College Football Production Model using data provided by www.cfbstats.com.
