While there was a chance that either of Wisconsin's two most important players might play on Saturday, they will be without quarterback Billy Edwards Jr. and center Jake Renfro for yet another week. Both veteran leaders have played sparingly this season. Wisconsin's offensive line has largely deteriorated in Renfro's extended absence. As for Edwards, he has been a massive disappointment.
