The Badgers have grown in one key category this Fall.
Wisconsin head coach Luke Fickell discussed the biggest difference with the Badgers since fall camp concluded. While the team has experienced growth, they have also overcome adversity due to injuries. However, they managed to complete 15 good practices, preparing for their upcoming season opener against Notre Dame. Fickell emphasized the importance of balance and complementary football, highlighting the team's adaptability to injuries and depth.
At the offensive line, the presence of injuries allowed for key reps, with Lucas Simmons-Johansson stepping up at right tackle. Blake Cherry and Stylz Blackmon have also gained valuable experience at right guard. On the defensive line, the team has seen improved health. Additionally, there is a battle for the No. 2 quarterback role, with the emergence of Malachi Coleman as a potential starter.
The Badgers have also seen the return of Shamar Rigby as a wide receiver, contributing to the overall depth of the squad.
