Wisconsin junior running back James White has had his fair share playing in a crowded backfield during his already-illustrious football career.
The Wisconsin Badgers (3-1 Big Ten, 6-2 overall) run game catapulted the team to victory yet again, but this time the team has Paul Bunyan’s Axe to show for it for the ninth straight season.
In what was the Wisconsin football team’s (2-1 Big Ten, 5-2 overall) best performance of the season Saturday, the Badgers seemed to find what was missing offensively in the team’s shakey start to the season.
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind.—Merely three weeks ago, Wisconsin (2-1 Big Ten, 5-2 overall) senior running back Montee Ball’s chances at breaking the NCAA touchdown record seemed questionable, the team’s chance at returning to Indianapolis seemed equally bleak and its offensive identity was essentially non-existent.
Wisconsin (1-1 Big Ten, 4-2 overall) will need to add onto its most complete performance last weekend against Illinois if it wants to defeat Purdue (0-1 Big Ten, 3-2 overall) and remain the favorite to represent the Leaders Division in the Big Ten Championship game Dec. 1.
It’s never easy standing out on a defense that includes redshirt junior linebacker Chris Borland and redshirt senior linebacker Mike Taylor. It’s even harder when that same defense involves a smothering front four that has held opposing rushers to just 3.5 yards per carry.
The Wisconsin football team (1-1 Big Ten, 4-2 overall) finally realized how easy it is to pile up points on the board with a healthy rushing attack Saturday in its 31-14 win.
People who wanted to see Wisconsin (0-1 Big Ten, 3-2 overall) junior running back James White and redshirt freshman running back Melvin Gordon in the backfield more often last weekend against Nebraska may have their wish come true Saturday against Illinois (0-1, 2-3).
The Wisconsin Badgers football team (0-1 Big Ten, 3-2 overall) suddenly has another mantra besides the “1-0” approach to add to its arsenal.
LINCOLN, Neb.—Wisconsin (0-1 Big Ten, 3-2 overall) let an ugly offensive line and run game performance taint what was perhaps the best half of football the Badgers have played all season.
The amount of criticism senior Nebraska quarterback Taylor Martinez received last year was arguably at its peak after their 48-17 defeat in Camp Randall Stadium on Oct. 1st, 2011. His one-and-a-half quarters of solid play was short-lived to say the least. The Cornhuskers jumped out to a 14-7 lead just five seconds into the second quarter, but by the time “Jump Around” came on, the game was already decided.
No Montee Ball? No problem for the Wisconsin Badgers (3-1 overall).
Well, it’s official. Redshirt freshman Joel Stave will be taking the reigns of the struggling Wisconsin (2-1 overall) offense Saturday morning against Texas El-Paso (1-2 overall) in the team’s final non-conference game of the season.
Redshirt senior left tackle Rick Wagner stressed earlier this week that the offensive line wanted to see more run plays called. He thought the linemen were losing their identity after their dismal performance at Oregon State. Even offensive coordinator Matt Canada said the team “got off track” during the loss.
Get ready for a changed Wisconsin Badgers team (1-1 overall) this Saturday against the Utah State Aggies (2-0 overall) when they burst through the tunnel at Camp Randall Stadium.
The Wisconsin Badgers football team (1-1 overall) now has its loss out of the way.
The Wisconsin Badgers (1-0 overall) are not concerned one bit.
A win is a win. Wisconsin head coach Bret Bielema and numerous Badger players echoed this cliché following Wisconsin’s (1-0 overall, 0-0 Big Ten) 26-21 victory over FCS opponent Northern Iowa (0-1 overall, 0-0 Missouri Valley Conference) Saturday afternoon in the first game of the 2012 season.
About a year and a half ago, Big Ten officials spent hours on end attempting to find the perfect balance between the two, six-member divisions that the conference would be split into. Now though, the balance between the Leaders and Legends divisions already seems a bit unstable.
Only at the University of Wisconsin can you repeatedly lose All-American offensive linemen and go into the next season with as much confidence in the unit as years’ previous.
