The Wisconsin Badgers have looked like a Playoff contender through the first three games of the year, riding a top-five defense and an improved offensive attack to a 3-0 record.

Year in and year out, the Badger offense is led by a bruising line and a host of running backs who shorten games by running the ball down the opponent’s throat. You’re still going to see plenty of that on first and second down with stud freshman Jonathan Taylor. Yet Wisconsin has demonstrated a newfound explosiveness this year, due largely to the development of sophomore quarterback Alex Hornibrook.
