Calling Saturday a disappointing day for Badger fans may be an understatement. In fact, the word disaster may sum it up better.
Wisconsin football fans got the first true showcase of Braedyn Locke in last season’s nail-biter win against Illinois when he stepped in for starting quarterback Tanner Mordecai following Mordecai’s injury in their previous game against Iowa. Again this year, Locke has unexpectedly stepped into the starting quarterback position, mirroring the team’s hardships from last season.
