MADISON, Wis. (AP) – Tuneup time is over in the Big Ten. If unbeaten Iowa wants to set the tone in West Division, there is no better day to start than Saturday and the showdown with No. 19 Wisconsin in the league opener for both teams.

The Badgers are the defending division champion, but their hopes for another first-place finish have already taken a hit following the injury to starting tailback Corey Clement. The Hawkeyes (4-0) and Badgers (3-1) will meet for the 89th time in the series.
