1968 Wisconsin Badgers football team


The 1968 Wisconsin Badgers football team represented the University of Wisconsin in the 1968 Big Ten Conference football season. The team was led by second-year head coach John Coatta, and they competed in the Big Ten Conference. The Badgers finished the season 0–10 ; to date, this is the first time the Badgers have finished winless.
This was the first season of artificial turf at Camp Randall Stadium; the Tartan Turf home opener was against Washington of the Pac-8, who had just installed AstroTurf at their Husky Stadium in Seattle. Outside of these two, the only other University Division venues with synthetic turf in 1968 were the Astrodome and Neyland Stadium.
