When asked about No. 18 Wisconsin’s linebackers, their Notre Dame counterpart Drew White gave a short laugh and an honest response this week.
“I just hone in on every offense. That’s my role. That’s my job,” White said. “It’s not going to help during game day, so might as well not focus on [Wisconsin’s defense].”
In his fifth year at Notre Dame and third season as a starter, White is deliberate with his time. In this case, he spends it studying the Badgers’ run game, led by Clemson transfer running back Chez Mellusi, before they meet Saturday at Soldier Field in Chicago (12 ET; FOX).
