MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- No. 12 Wisconsin is seeking to win a home opener for the 26th straight season when it hosts No. 19 Penn State.
The only Football Bowl Subdivision team with a longer active streak of consecutive victories in home openers is Florida with 31 straight.
Penn State is aiming to beat Wisconsin for a fifth straight time.
Wisconsin's last victory in this series was a 45-7 blowout at Madison in 2011. Both teams are seeking to bounce back from disappointing 2020 seasons.
