Kelly an invaluable asset for UW defense
MADISON, Wis. Contrary to popular belief, Brendan Kelly was not a member of Barry Alvarez's team during his first coaching stint. He was not on the field when Ron Dayne won a Heisman Trophy, nor was he around for the press conference to announce Bret Bielema's hiring as Wisconsin's new football coach.
It merely seems as though Kelly, a sixth-year defensive lineman at...

The Sconnie Scoop: Badgers QB battle seeing separation
Welcome to the silly season officially as the unofficial end of the college calendar went down last night - just don't tell that to UW's softball team, who will be looking for redemption this weekend after a 1-2 weekend at the hands of the hated Gophers, or to the track & field teams, or rowing for that matter either.
Sure, they may be minor sports to some, but...

Wisconsin opened up it's scrimmage to the public on Saturday morning and more than 800 people were in attendance on what was a decent, but windy day according to those in attendance. What they saw was an offense that was ahead of the defense, who just three days prior had impressed more.

Badgers' Stave performing well at QB
MADISON, Wis. Separation is beginning to emerge in the Wisconsin quarterback battle as spring practices stretch past the halfway point.

Badgers hope switch to 3-4 leads to turnovers
MADISON, Wis. When the front seven for Wisconsin's defense lines up on the football field next season, Badgers fans will see plenty of familiar last names in red and white jerseys. Where each player is positioned, however, isn't likely to be the same.
Generally speaking, a new coaching staff brings different looks to a team anyway. But the change on defense should be especially...

UW secondary lacking experience, not courage
MADISON, Wis. If you do the math, it isn't difficult to spot Wisconsin's perceived weak link in the defense as the 2013 football season approaches. Six of the Badgers' front seven will be back. One of the Badgers' back four returns.

Badgers reload backfield with White, Gordon
MADISON, Wis. The best running back in college football last season is gone, and so the natural inclination is to believe Wisconsin can't possibly attain a greater level of success without him. After all, what is better than the best?

What's Next for Wisconsin Basketball?
This year's Wisconsin basketball team was like no other we've ever seen. At certain points it seemed that they were overachieving, and at other times they made us all want to pull our hair out.

Wisconsin has questions to answer at QB
When quarterback Curt Phillips took the snaps in January's Rose Bowl, Wisconsin became the first team to play in three consecutive BCS bowl games using three different starting quarterbacks. It's a sign that the Badgers were used to having success despite constant change.
It's a theory that will be tested again this season. Not only does Wisconsin have a brand new head...
