We’ve had the better part of a week to sit with the University of Wisconsin football team’s 41-13 loss to No. 4 Notre Dame, which usually provides a little more clarity than the immediate postgame reaction.

So, with the Badgers turning their attention to the rest of the schedule, how much should Week 1 actually change the way we view this team?

Q: Now that we’ve had a few days to digest the Notre Dame loss, has your outlook on Wisconsin changed at all? Should we view this team any differently?
