Colton Joseph ranked 49th among Power 4 quarterbacks by Sports Illustrated

Wisconsin Badgers quarterback Colton Joseph has been ranked 49th among Power 4 starters ahead of the 2026 college football season, according to Sports Illustrated. Joseph, a transfer from Old Dominion, had an impressive previous season with over 2,600 passing yards and more than 1,000 rushing yards. Despite his solid stats, he is positioned below other Big Ten quarterbacks, including Maryland's Malik Washington and Minnesota's Drake Lindsey. Joseph’s ranking reflects concerns over the Badgers' offensive struggles, having finished last season at the bottom of the FBS in points per game. His performance this upcoming season will be pivotal for Wisconsin's hopes under coach Luke Fickell.
