The series would be held at Chicago’s Soldiers Field and Green Bay’s Lambeau Field and Murphy said an announcement is expected to come soon.

Wisconsin opened the 2016 season with a 16-14 win over LSU at Lambeau Field.

The Badgers and Irish have met 16 times, with the Irish holding an 8-6-2 advantage.  The last meeting took place in 1964.
