Preview: Wisconsin spring football

What: Wisconsin's 2016 spring football practice.

When: The first of 15 practices is set for Saturday. The annual spring game is set for noon April 23.

FIVE THINGS TO WATCH

REPLACING STAVE: Coach Paul Chryst will have just two healthy scholarship quarterbacks — Bart Houston, who played in seven games last season, and Alex Hornibrook, who will be a redshirt freshman in the fall. Freshman Kare' Lyles graduated early from high school and is enrolled at UW but will be held out of spring because of a hip injury.

Chryst and offensive coordinator Joe Rudolph will use the 15 practices to test the limits of the trio.
