Wisconsin Badgers quarterback Colton Joseph was benched as the team suffered another embarrassing defeat against Iowa, according to a report published on October 31, 2026.

The Badgers' struggles against the Hawkeyes continued a pattern of difficult matchups, with Joseph removed from the game as the team failed to compete.

Joseph, wearing number 1, had started earlier in the season, including a September 19, 2026, game against Eastern Michigan at Camp Randall Stadium in Madison, Wisconsin.

The benching signals a potential shift at quarterback for Wisconsin as they look to address their performance against conference rivals.
