CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (AP) — Illinois linebacker Jonathan Brown relishes the thought of Saturday’s game against No. 25 Wisconsin.
The Badgers (4-2, 2-1 Big Ten) have the big ground game that he says Big Ten linebackers dream about stopping.
But what Wisconsin doesn’t have are a road win and the division lead. The Badgers trail Ohio State and coach Gary Andersen says they have to succeed on the road if they want to be a great team.
Illinois (3-2, 0-1) expects to see a lot of Wisconsin running backs Melvin Gordon and James White. Gordon averages 145 yards a game and White 95.7.
