They actually took three QB’s in the portal.
Mordecai (SMU) - starting QB
Locke (MS STATE) - 2nd string
Evers (OK) - 3rd string

Difficult to fathom three QB's from those three schools all transferring to Wisconsin in the same off-season. Don't quite understand that mindset.
(On the other hand, I guess we don't really know their individual circumstances.)

It makes a little more sense than Mordecai is a Senior and the other two are redshirt freshmen. Evers in particular transferred from Oklahoma when they got uber-prospect Jackson Arnold.
Doubtful in the air raid
But what If they no longer have a pilot? Ground war?
Huge game. Win, and suddenly a 7 win (dare I say 8?) season is on the table. Lose, and getting a bowl game will be a bit of an uphill battle.
Every game left is winnable. But then again every game left is losable, so we have to stay focused with keeping Penalties and Turnovers to a minimum. I think we figured out Saturday how critical the first drive of the game is for this team. That TD gave us momentum for the remainder of the game. I would still love to see our TEs get more involved in the offense, and a few screen passes to Feagin or Love. But I loved, absolutely loved, what I saw yesterday.

And the craziest part is that there is a chance this game becomes a pick'em by kickoff.Wow. I would not have guessed that line a few days ago!
What a strange season this has been.
I hope fans pack Memorial Stadium for Homecoming!

It works well with "drones" too
In the two losses for Wisconsin this season, 40 passing attempts against Washington State and 50 passing attempts against Iowa

Interestingly, Locke was 15-30 with one interception in relief of Mordecai. Looks like Fickell is giving him the green light to put the ball in the air.
Anxious to see how this one plays out!
What do you think the expected attendance will be? Does Wisc travel well? I would assume that there are a lot of Wisc fans in northern IL.

Braedyn Locke sounds pretty good, despite his parents' obvious challenges in spelling his first name.
Will Keith be back this week?
