The Wisconsin Badgers pulled off a 27-13 victory over the South Dakota Coyotes in Week 2, overcoming adversity once again to improve to 2-0 on the season.

However, Wisconsin didn’t come out of the game clean, as linebacker Jake Chaney was ejected in the third quarter for a targeting call in the red zone, which means he’ll have to miss the first half of this weekend’s contest against the Alabama Crimson Tide.

That was a major change for the Badgers, who lost their MIKE linebacker, prompting Tackett Curtis to get an opportunity, which he made the most of with a number of impressive plays.
