Football: Wisconsin loses nose tackle Olive Sagapolu for remainder of season

In what has already been a season replete with adversity, the Wisconsin defense was dealt yet another unfortunate blow Thursday after it was announced senior nose tackle Olive Sagapolu will miss the remainder of the 2018 season because of an arm injury requiring surgery. The senior has played his final snap as a Badger.

The Wisconsin State Journal covered responses from the Badger coaches as they offered their sympathies to Sagapolu today.

“He’s been great how he’s handling it, but you feel bad for him — any time guys miss games, but particularly seniors,” Head Coach Paul Chryst said.
