Football: Badgers may be without Hornibrook this Saturday against Wildcats

The University of Wisconsin Football Team (5-2, 3-1 Big Ten) look to unseat the Big Ten West leader Northwestern Wildcats (4-3, 4-1 Big Ten) Saturday morning.

News broke Thursday afternoon that Wisconsin quarterback Alex Hornibrook was questionable for this weekend’s tilt with a concussion, and that the Badgers were looking to quarterback Jack Coan as the replacement if needed.

Hornibrook is coming off a string of inconsistent games, and many have been calling for Coan to replace him.
