Wisconsin football: Injuries are part of the game, but this is ridiculous

One can't help but think how a healthy Badgers offense might have fared through the season's first two months.

OK, so Wisconsin's #QuestforFun just keeps getting a little bit harder -- not because the competition is getting stiffer, or because players are making too many mistakes, or because the coaches don't know what they're doing. Those arguments could be made, but really, what's a team supposed to when by the end of nearly every game it plays, there's yet another back-up getting playing time?

Wisconsin's defense (knock on wood) hasn't been the victim of too many injuries, save the concussion suffered by Michael Caputo against Alabama, Leon Jacobs's season-ending foot injury and the absence of lineman/nose tackle Arthur Goldberg against Illinois.
