Wisconsin DT Olive Sagapolu talks cheerleading, Halloween costumes

Olive Sagapolu is a true freshman for the Wisconsin Badgers and a 332-pound nose tackle that’s started one game and played in the rest.

He went viral earlier this year for performing a standing backflip. And, during his senior year in high school, he was a vital member of the cheerleading squad. And the football squad, of course.

Obviously, that seems like a perfect fit for our weird Friday Q&As -- so we decided to get to know Sagapolu a little better off the field.

By now, every one of your teammate has watched that video of the backflip.
