Another disappointing performance for the Scarlet Knights as they fall to 1-3 in the Big Ten. Dylan Harper played but was not close to 100%, Ace Bailey struggled, and team defense was an issue once again. Some positives with Tyson Acuff and Dylan Grant but not enough for RU to overcome the Badgers.

While RU finished the season with a winning record for the second straight year, expectations for a big step forward were not met. That being said, there are reasons for optimism for next season.
