Brazzoni: Wheelwright’s emergence opens options in UW passing attack

On a regular day, Badger fans might be disappointed to see their No. 1 wide receiver — fifth-year senior Alex Erickson — failed to find the end zone in a Saturday afternoon blowout against a lowly Miami (Ohio) squad.

On a regular day, Erickson would dictate the success of the University of Wisconsin passing game. If Erickson found success, the team likely moved the ball well through the air. If not, well, you had to pray that UW could have better luck on the ground.

But Saturday was no regular day and this is definitely not your regular Wisconsin receiving corps.
