Although Wisconsin’s 2015 campaign has been shadowed by disappointment, 12 players were honored with All-Big Ten selections with the regular season coming to an end this past weekend.
Minneapolis, Minn. - When a running back has a big performance, some might say that he was “in the zone.” For redshirt junior Dare Ogunbowale and redshirt freshman Taiwan Deal, that expression was much more literal.
Junior running back Corey Clement has been cited with two counts of disorderly conduct stemming from a Nov. 8 incident that left him with a cut on his hand, according to a Wednesday release from the UW Athletic Department.
The Wisconsin student section looked bad, as they pelted the cheerleaders with snowballs, but the Badgers (5-2 Big Ten, 8-3 overall) on the field didn’t look much better, losing to the No. 20 Northwestern Wildcats (5-2, 9-2) 13-7.
Senior outside linebacker Joe Schobert may lead the Wisconsin defense in sacks and quarterback hits, but Vince Biegel might be even more valuable for defensive coordinator Dave Aranda.
After a polarizing five-year stay at Wisconsin, redshirt senior Joel Stave will play his last game at Camp Randall Stadium Saturday against Northwestern.
1. Big (Ten) aspirations
Though the Big Ten West is Iowa’s division to lose at this point, the race for the Big Ten East is far from over.
It has been nearly three weeks since the Badgers (3-4-3) last skated in the Kohl Center, but expect fans in red to flock to the 17,230-seat arena this Friday and Saturday for showdowns against No. 9 Denver (6-3-1).
After the Baltimore Ravens defeated the San Francisco 49ers in Superbowl XLVII, Ravens head coach John Harbaugh summed up his team’s win with an adage that was simple yet expressive: “It’s never pretty. It’s never perfect. But it was us,” he said.
Jake Rudock has excelled at Michigan since transferring from Iowa.
Michigan survived a scare in Bloomington last weekend thanks to a six-touchdown performance from quarterback Jake Rudock. The Hoosiers gave the Wolverines all they could handle, taking them to double overtime. However, the game would not have even reached extra time had it not been for a five-yard Rudock touchdown pass with two seconds left that tied the game. He then threw for two scores in overtime, using just three plays to lead the Michigan offense to paydirt.
UCLA
Two of the Daily Cardinal's writers picked Bret Bielema's Razorbacks to upset Texas A&M this weekend.
The graduation of senior safety Michael Caputo will leave a huge gap in Wisconsin’s secondary.
ACC
Wisconsin and Ohio State are seemingly bound to meet in Indianapolis in a few weeks for the Big Ten Championship.
With the hangover of the “408 game” still permeating the mind of the 2014 Wisconsin squad heading into its final two games, the Badgers’ grasp on the Big Ten West was theirs to lose. It narrowly survived the tight confines of Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City, Iowa and cruised in the battle of Paul Bunyan’s Axe the following week, earning a date with Ohio State at Lucas Oil Stadium.
