Here's something you probably didn't know (or care to add up): Wisconsin will have 20 possible uniform combinations this year. The Badgers showed off the designs Wednesday during their annual photo shoot. To be fair, many of the combinations aren't that different, with the team boasting a primary white helmet and alternate red lid that can be mixed and matched with three facemasks (white, red and black).
The Badgers did unveil a new combination Wednesday, and they seemed to hint that it could be in play this fall.

Other than all-white, monochromatic designs are hard to pull off. I'm not a big fan of them, but they make sense on Homecoming and other important weekends. Also, young fans and recruits seem to like them a lot, so it wouldn't be a surprise if Wisconsin mixes in the all-red in 2014.
For inquiring minds, here's a look at Wisconsin 2013 combinations:
