I'm way late on this, since I was without the computer, but I'd like to add some notes to what you've likely already read (if you even care about Wisconsin/Bowling Green)
* Looks like the running back situation shouldn't be too much of an issue. P.J. Hill (who we talked about a few weeks ago) looked absolutely solid. I was especially impressed with his yards after contact. The guy's a bulldozer. We can only hope that such things can continue against the lines of Michigan and Iowa.
*John Stocco started, despite only being a few weeks out from minor knee surgery and he didn't seem to be suffering any ill effects. In fact, he was fairly mobile, seemed to have no problem throwing from both feet and made a key 8 yard run for a first down. He was 9 of 15 for 124 yards.
*True freshman RB Lance Smith hasn't gotten a lot of attention, but he proved he's someone to reckon with, displaying some explosive speed. He and Hill, alongside FB Dywon Rowan, should not have a problem continuing Wisconsin's history of relying solidly on the running game.
*The TE Travis Beckum had more catches and more yards than the two receivers (Swan and Hubbard) combined. Receiving will not be our forte this year.
*There were a lot of names I didn't recognize, but know to keep an eye for this season, especially special teams stand out Jonathan Casillas (who also notched tackles in the double digits)
*The defense, who should be much stronger than the offense this season, came out looking very shaky, but definitely didn't that take over the tone of the game and showed themselves much better after Bowling Green's opening drive.
