Behind Enemy Lines: Previewing Northwestern-Wisconsin with Bucky’s 5th Quarter

This week we’re talking with Jake Kocorowski of Bucky’s 5th Quarter, SB Nation’s Wisconsin blog. Here’s what he sees in the matchup tomorrow:

Inside NU: Wisconsin's S&P+ numbers show the Badgers throw the ball really well (12th in the nation) but run it just above average (46th). It seems like the Badgers lean on the run, though, so are those numbers so misleading? If so, why?

Jake Kocorowski: Wisconsin's run game is critical to the offense's success under head coach Paul Chryst, especially in this two-quarterback system where there's uncertainty to that position's production.
