In this story:

Bob Chesney is the first UCLA coach to start his tenure at 5-0 and has a chance to improve that record to 6-0 against a Wisconsin team hungry for another ranked win on the road.

It will be a tough test for quarterback Ty Dieffenbach as he makes his first start as a Bruin, but UCLA’s defense and running game could certainly make life much easier.

History vs. Wisconsin

Compared to old conference rivals like Oregon and USC, the Bruins have very little history against the Badgers all-time.

The two teams have only met 11 times, with UCLA holding a winning record of 7-4 against Wisconsin. However, the latest history favors Wisconsin as they enter this Week 7 matchup with a three-game win streak, spanning from 1993 to 2000.

The first time the two teams met was all the way back in 1938, when Wisconsin beat UCLA by a score of 14-7. The most recent time, however, was in the Sun Bowl in 2000, where Wisconsin again defeated UCLA 21-20. From the years of 1952 to 1982, UCLA achieved all seven of their wins against the Badgers.

This game has a real chance to be hugely important on a national scale, and it certainly has high stakes in the Big Ten standings. A win for UCLA could give them the sole lead in the conference, as they attempt to continue their perfect season.
