Wisconsin football: keys to victory against Northwestern

The Badgers are 3-0 thanks to a dominating effort on both sides of the football against Michigan. They won the time of possession battle by more than 20 minutes, they forced the poor passing game of Shea Patterson to try and beat them and they most certainly took advantage of the home crowd as Camp Randall was rocking on Saturday afternoon.

It was apparent what the Badgers needed to do to win, and they accomplished it in all three phases. Now the page turns to Northwestern, who stumble into Wisconsin at 1-2. It’s been a sluggish start for the Wildcats but they’re still a team that has beaten the Badgers three of the last five times they’ve played, so they shouldn’t be taken lightly.
