MADISON If Wisconsin beats Miami in the Champs Sports Bowl, Hurricanes fans may have an unlikely figure to blame: University of Miami president Donna Shalala. Before she served as President Bill Clintons health and human services secretary, Shalala was the University of Wisconsin-Madison chancellor who helped turn an embarrassing football program into a perennial Big 10 contender.  

With Christmas fast approaching, the Wisconsin Badgers decided to treat themselves to an early present: two more recruits for the 2010 class.

Hammond, a 6'4", 200-pounder out of Youngstown, Ohio, wasn't...

Despite finishing the season 9-3, including their thrashing of Hawaii last night, the Wisconsin Badgers were passed over for the Outback Bowl in favor of Northwestern. Why the Outback Bowl Committee chose the Wildcats over the Badgers is still somewhat of a mystery.

It was another disappointing Saturday for Michigan fans as the Wolverines fell to 5-6 and missed another opportunity to be bowl eligible after losing in Madison to the Wisconsin Badgers. The game started like most have in past weeks, it was close until the second half.  

I think we'll be able to put up some points against Wisconsin. What I'm worried about is—no surprise—our defense. In particularly, Wisconsin's power attack is designed to pound away play after play at the defense. Although we have an undersized line, I think we're capable of stopping the run in general. But Clay will be the biggest back we've faced all year. Like his predecessor P.J. Hill, Clay falls forward on every play, and he weighs...
