Episode Description

BadgerExtra reporters Colten Bartholomew and Jake Kocorowski break down both sides of the ball when Luke Fickell and his University of Wisconsin football team head out west to face Big Ten newcomer USC.

Here's our breakdown:

  • [3:04] Wisconsin's offense vs. USC's defense. Can the Badgers use the rushing attack to slow the game's pace down, or do you speed it up using tempo (the latter being something Fickell believes quarterback Braedyn Locke could do within Phil Longo's scheme?). Is there a happy medium or balance to do both?
    • [16:44] A particular matchup to watch between Wisconsin tackles Jack Nelson and Riley Mahlman against USC linebacker Eric Gentry.
  • [19:14] Wisconsin's defense vs. USC's offense. How can the Badgers disrupt Trojans quarterback Miller Moss? Where will the pressure have to come from?
  • [27:40] One All-American returner Wisconsin will have to contain this week as well.
