Wisconsin's tailback tradition is well known, but there's a lineage to follow at fullback, too.
For four seasons, Derek Watt opened holes for James White, Melvin Gordon and Corey Clement. Working within three different types of offenses, he could act as the lead blocking fullback, an H-back or U-back tight end off the line of scrimmage.
Watt played in 47 games with 24 starts as a fullback. He was part of an offense that set a school record for total offense at 480.8 yards per game in 2013, and was also useful in the passing game with 30 career receptions for 309 yards and a touchdown.
