Gets nothing going against Ducks Simmons completed 7 of 21 passes for 86 yards, one touchdown and one interception during Saturday's 21-7 defeat against Oregon.
Impact Wisconsin's quarterback woes continue, and although the Badgers played tough against Oregon in the first half, they simply could not produce enough offense to be competitive. Simmons is one of three different quarterbacks who have been plagued with injuries or poor play for Wisconsin.
OCTOBER 28 • ROTOWIRE
Struggles again in blowout loss Simmons was 6-for-12 passing for 54 yards and one interception during Saturday's 34-0 defeat against Ohio State.
Impact The Badgers have been thwarted by inefficient quarterback play all season after Billy Edwards' untimely injury and there seems to be little relief ahead for the team. Their remaining schedule includes bouts with Oregon and Indiana, and it's plausible that they may not win again this season unless there's a seismic change in the offense.
OCTOBER 19 • ROTOWIRE
ESPN reports Wisconsin's starting quarterback vs. Ohio State: Is Billy Edwards Jr. back? The Wisconsin Badgers announce that quarterback Hunter Simmons will be starting against Ohio State tomorrow.
OCTOBER 17 • USATODAY.COM
Set for another start Simmons is expected to start against Ohio State on Saturday, Pete Thamel of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Simmons is in line to make a third consecutive start under center for the Badgers, and he seems to have beaten Danny O'Neil for the nod since Billy Edwards (knee) continues to deal with an injury. Simmons completed eight of 21 passes for 82 yards and two picks in the 37-0 loss to Iowa in Week 7.
OCTOBER 17 • ROTOWIRE
Wisconsin writer sends harrowing message on Hunter Simmons before facing Ohio State There's not much faith on the Wisconsin side ahead of the Badgers' Week 8 matchup with the Ohio State Buckeyes in Madison.

Badgers coach Luke Fickell facing plenty of heat as No. 1 Ohio State heads to Wisconsin

OCTOBER 16 • Associated Press
Awful showing in blowout loss Simmons completed 8 of 21 passes for 82 yards and two interceptions during Saturday's 37-0 defeat to Iowa.
Impact Simmons had an abysmal game against Iowa, completing only 38.1 percent of his passes while also throwing two picks. The Badgers scored zero points in the loss, and it seems fairly obvious that Simmons is not Wisconsin's answer at quarterback. Billy Edwards (knee) seems no closer to returning, so if Edwards is out agin, the team may go back to Danny O'Neil or give freshman Carter Smith a shot.
OCTOBER 13 • ROTOWIRE
In line to start Saturday Simmons is in line to start Saturday's game against Iowa with quarterback Billy Edwards (knee) very doubtful, Pete Nakos of On3.com reports.
Impact Simmons was positioned as the QB2 ahead of the game pending his teammate's injury, but he'll now get the start with Edwards' knee problems looking to keep him sidelined. Simmons started last week versus Michigan, where he completed 18 of 29 passes for 177 yards with zero touchdowns and one interception. He'll aim to translate his second start of the season into more output in the homecoming matchup.

OCTOBER 7 • USATODAY.COM
Seemingly locks down No. 2 role Simmons will be the starter for Wisconsin in its homecoming game against Iowa on Saturday if Billy Edwards can't go, Evan Flood of On3.com reports.
Impact This seems to indicate Simmons has firmly locked down the QB2 spot in Madison after Danny O'Neil struggled in consecutive losses against Alabama and Maryland. Simmons didn't lead the Badgers to victory in his start in the Big House against Michigan, and the offense was still stuck in the mud most of the afternoon, but he looked like a better pocket passer than O'Neil and seems to have won the Badgers' coaching staff over.
OCTOBER 7 • ROTOWIRE
Struggles in tough loss Simmons was 18-for-29 passing for 177 yards and one interception during Saturday's 24-10 defeat against Michigan.
Impact The Badgers still don't seem to have an answer at quarterback, as Danny O'Neil wasn't the answer and Billy Edwards still isn't ready to return. Edwards will likely return to the starting job when healthy, as Simmons did nothing to fend off a challenge.
OCTOBER 7 • ROTOWIRE
To start again if Edwards misses Simmons will start Saturday against Iowa if Billy Edwards (knee) can't play, Evan Flood of On3.com reports.
Impact Simmons made his first start with Wisconsin in Week 6 against Michigan, and he completed 18-of-29 passes for 177 yards, no touchdowns and one interception. His efforts will earn him another start against Iowa if Edwards misses the contest.

Bryce Underwood and Justice Haynes lead No. 20 Michigan to 24-10 win over Wisconsin

Bryce Underwood threw for a season-high 270 yards and a touchdown, Justice Haynes ran for 117 yards and two scores and No. 20 Michigan beat Wisconsin 24-10
OCTOBER 4 • Associated Press
Starting at Michigan Simmons is the starting quarterback for Saturday's game at Michigan, Pete Thamel of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Simmons will get his first start with the Badgers as they travel to Ann Arbor. The Southern Illinois grad transfer's start will knock Danny O'Neil to the bench, who has struggled in the recent weeks. Simmons has appeared in one game so far this season, completing seven of nine passes for 70 yards and one touchdown.
OCTOBER 4 • ROTOWIRE
Provides burst in relief Simmons completed 7 of 9 passes for 70 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 27-10 defeat versus Maryland.
Impact Simmons was Wisconsin's third quarterback under center during the loss, as Billy Edwards (knee) left after two quarters and Danny O'Neil (undisclosed) left shortly after suffering his sixth sack of the game. Simmons was the sharpest passer of the trio, so it's anyone's guess as to who will show up under center moving forward. The Badgers have an upcoming bye week, which should give the team time to clarify the situation.

SEPTEMBER 20 • Associated Press
Competing for backup job Simmons is in the running for Wisconsin's backup quarterback job ahead of the 2025 season, Zach Heilprin of 1670AM The Zone Madison reports.
Impact Simmons spent the last three seasons with Southern Illinois, but he transferred in to Wisconsin back in April. The 6-foot-3 quarterback likely won't be considered too highly for the Badgers' starting quarterback role ahead of his fifth collegiate season, but he will get the opportunity to snag the QB2 spot from SDSU transfer Danny O'Neil pending how August goes.
