ESPN College Football Analyst Kirk Herbstreit has confirmed via Twitter University of Wisconsin Athletic Director Barry Alvarez will coach the Badgers football team during the Outback Bowl against Auburn.
Alvarez set the precedent for returning to coach a game when Bret Bielema left Wisconsin for Arkansas back in 2012.
Alvarez is the winningest coach in Badgers football history, and was elected to the College Football Hall of Fame in 2010.
