The Wisconsin Badgers under Luke Fickell don't exactly have a great track record with backup quarterbacks coming in to save the season. In fact, you could argue the exact opposite happens every year: the backup comes in and ruins the season. Danny O'Neil, though, is already doing something that the QB2 at Wisconsin hasn't done in years: providing hope.
In fact, we ran a social media poll on X and asked: Be honest, who do you want to see this week, an 80% healthy Billy Edwards Jr. or a 100% healthy Danny O'Neil? The results are startling, considering how Wisconsin fans usually feel about QB2, O'Neil is receiving almost 80% of the votes.
