MADISON, Wis. -- An innocuous question was posed to Wisconsin linebacker Vince Biegel this week, and in any previous season, it might have yielded a dull answer. But Biegel is still fuming, still motivated, still hell-bent on demonstrating why a decision made four months ago represented such an insult to his football talent.
So, ask about moving to a nine-game conference schedule next season, and he steers the discussion back to the topic that hasn't escaped his thoughts for a day since December: that, for all his effort, he was named only a third-team all-Big Ten linebacker in both the coaches and media votes.
