The Week 10 BCS standings were released Sunday night, and the Wisconsin Badgers are now within the top 25. In the second overall week the official BCS standings were released, the Badgers slide in at No. 24.
Within the Big Ten, that puts them behind Ohio State (No. 4), Michigan (No. 21) and Michigan State (No. 22). For Wisconsin to reach a BCS bowl game via an at-large bid, the Badgers will need to finish within the top 14 and have at least nine wins. They're currently 5-2, with five games remaining vs. Iowa, BYU, Indiana, Minnesota and Penn State.
An at-large bid certainly seems doable, and SB Nation's Jason Kirk still has Wisconsin as his projected Orange Bowl participant opposite Florida State. An appearance in the Big Ten Championship Game, as well as a subsequent trip to the Rose Bowl, remain unlikely as long as Ohio State remains undefeated and atop the Big Ten Leaders Division.
