Badger football to begin airing on 95.7 BIG FM in Milwaukee
October 17, 2025 | Football
Change comes amid format changes from iHeartMedia Milwaukee
With the Wisconsin Football taking on No. 1 Ohio State this weekend at Camp Randall Stadium, the Badger Radio Network has a new Milwaukee broadcast home. Wisconsin football games will now air live on 95.7 BIG FM WRIT-Milwaukee.
The transition comes as iHeartMedia Milwaukee changes the format of 97.3 The Game from sports programming to fully music. 95.7 BIG FM, the Badgers' new home, is iHeart's No. 1 station in the Milwaukee market in terms of audience reach.
Fans tuning in for the rest of the football season will not notice any changes to the game broadcasts themselves. Matt Lepay and Mark Tauscher continue to team up from the broadcast booth with Patrick Herb providing sideline coverage. The trio is in its third season together broadcasting Badger Football action.
Fans in the Milwaukee area and throughout the rest of the state are encouraged to visit Wisconsin Radio Network Affiliate Listing to determine their nearest Badger Radio Network affiliate. Wisconsin Badgers action is also available through the Badger App and the Varsity Network App.
No other Badger Radio Network changes are planned elsewhere in the state and games will continue to air in Madison on WIBA - AM 1310 and FM 101.5.
