In recent years, the Badgers' football squad has become the most prominent varsity team on campus. Under coach Barry Alvarez, the Badgers became one of the elite schools in the Big Ten. Under his guidance, Wisconsin went 1118-73-4, won three conference titles, and went 8-3 in bowl games. The eight bowl wins include three Rose Bowl victories. Among Alvarez's achievements at Wisconsin are the distinction of being the only Big Ten coach to win consecutive Rose Bowls, one of only six coaches in history to win at least three Rose Bowls, and of all coaches with three or more Rose Bowl appearances, Alvarez is one of only two to go undefeated (the other being USC's John Robinson).

The Badgers have a formidable basketball program as well. The story of Wisconsin basketball begins in 1898 under coach Dr. James C. Elsom. In 1907, the Badgers won the first of back-to-back conference titles. Success continued throughout the Walter Meanwell era (1911-1934) with nine more conference titles.
In 1934, former Wisconsin basketball player Harold "Bud" Foster took over as coach, a position he would retain until 1959. Foster led the Badgers to three more conference titles and the 1941 NCAA Championship with a 39-38 win over Washington State. Both Meanwell and Foster are enshrined in the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame.
The Badgers have also won at least a share of the Big Ten regular season title in 2002 and 2003, under coach Bo Ryan. Under Ryan, the Badgers also won the school's first Big Ten Conference Tournament.
