  "account": "Wisconsin fans will soon have the opportunity to witness both the university's men's and women's hockey teams playing at Lambeau Field again, according to an announcement made on September 2, 2026. The event, dubbed the Frozen Tundra Faceoff, is scheduled to take place on February 20, 2027. The doubleheader will feature the women's team facing Ohio State followed by the men's team taking on Michigan, marking the first time college hockey returns to the stadium since 2006.\n\nThe Frozen Tundra has a storied history with Wisconsin hockey, as it was the site of a memorable game between the Badgers and Ohio State in 2006, which the Badgers won 4-2. This year, the rivalry between the two programs will be in full swing, as they are set to face each other in NCAA championship games in recent years. The women's hockey matchup is particularly intriguing, given their history in the championship games.\n\nThe men's hockey game will pit Wisconsin against Michigan, a rivalry that has seen Wisconsin prevail in 15 NCAA championships, while Michigan holds a 93-72-13 advantage in the all-time series. The two teams split their two meetings last season. Meanwhile, in other sports news, Wisconsin football is set to face Notre Dame at Lambeau Field this Sunday. With both hockey and football events on the calendar, it promises to be an exciting year for Badgers fans at Lambeau Field.",
