Murphy also confirmed that there have been discussions about a college football game between Wisconsin and Notre Dame at Lambeau Field. The Chicago Tribune reported Monday that a series could start between the two schools in the 2020s, with games at Chicago's Soldier Field and Lambeau.

"I would say we've been working on that for a while, and I'm very hopeful very soon we'll be able to make an announcement," Murphy said. "What we'd like to is, and I mentioned it, have a big major event in the bowl every year. I thought last year the Wisconsin-LSU game was very positive, and the Billy Joel concert, and obviously I think a Notre Dame-Wisconsin game would be pretty special."

I am not a fan of either team but it is a great idea for Wisky and ND to play a "home and home" series at Lambeau and Soldier Field.

Also both Green Bay and Chicago are about equal distances from Wisconsin... where Notre Dame has to go a lot further for the Green Bay game.

Wis&ND great at Lambeau, but who wants to play in the shithole of Soldier Field.
