UW Football: Badgers Expect Intense Game Against Nebraska

The Wisconsin football team is 5-1 against Nebraska since the Cornhuskers joined the Big Ten in 2011. Tackle Michael Dieter says they’ve been intense games, and he expects nothing less Saturday night when the two teams get together in Lincoln. Senior linebacker Garret Dooley says Lincoln is one of the toughest places to play, as the stadium is full about 30 minutes before kickoff. Badgers’ tight end Troy Fumagalli is questionable for the game with a left leg injury that forced him to sit out last Saturday’s win against Northwestern — and running back Taiwan Deal and kickoff specialist P-J Rosowski are also questionable with lingering injuries. During the game, Nebraska will honor its 1997 national championship team.
