An offense with so many returning playmakers did not live up to expectations for the Wisconsin Badgers in 2018. Despite All-Americans in the backfield and offensive line that led one of the nation’s best rushing attacks, the unit struggled in the passing game, did not move the ball well on third down, and did not score enough points when needed.
A lot can be attributed to a few factors. To name a couple: missing both Zander Neuville (injury) and Quintez Cephus (suspension), and a lack of the widely anticipated progress from Alex Hornibrook.
