Wisconsin Badgers vs Penn State Nittany Lions team news & key players
Wisconsin Badgers team news
Similar to their counterparts, injuries are a pressing issue for Wisconsin, which has several players already declared out. Tyler Van Dyke suffered an injury during the Alabama game, posing a significant challenge for the quarterback position. With nine players uncertain for this contest and depth being a potential concern against a tough Penn State squad, this is a situation worth monitoring closely.
Since stepping in for the injured Van Dyke (who is out for the season) during the game against Alabama, sophomore Braedyn Locke has completed only 59.3% of his passes, recording 7 touchdowns and 5 interceptions. The Badgers are converting 42.5% of their third-down attempts and managing 4.8 yards per carry on the ground. Additionally, place kicker Nathanial Vakos has converted just six out of ten field goal attempts, prompting the Badgers to be more aggressive on fourth downs, where they have successfully converted seven out of eleven attempts.
Penn State Nittany Lions team news
The Nittany Lions are facing a significant injury crisis as they prepare for this matchup, with 11 players listed as questionable. While many of these players are expected to suit up, the primary concerns revolve around the offense, making it essential to see how depth will impact their performance.
Another impressive outing from QB Drew Allar propelled the Nittany Lions to victory, as the towering 6-5 sophomore passed for 391 yards despite throwing three interceptions. Tyler Warren, the standout tight end, was exceptional with 224 receiving yards and one touchdown, consistently causing problems for USC in the middle of the field. His 17 receptions tied a record that has stood since 1967.
