Offensive line, defensive front seven impress in Wisconsin’s 54-10 win

Welcome back to another edition of our B5Q roundtable sessions, where the points don’t count and we always fire Drew Hamm.

The now-No. 9/No.12 (AP/Coaches) Wisconsin Badgers dismantled and overwhelmed the Akron Zips in their 54-10 victory at Camp Randall Stadium on Saturday.

Our group of writers came together this weekend to discuss the non-conference win.

What key areas impressed you on Saturday?

Owen Riese: The front seven was its usual self. They shut down the run, other than two runs, and forced Akron to pass. The Badgers sat in a 2-4-5 nearly the entire game, and that allowed the secondary to do their thing, while the pass rush worked on irritating the Akron passing game.
