Badgers don't face them next year, but tOSU will be interesting next year with Chip Kelly taking over as the OC. I don't think he was ever really going to get it done at UCLA and he probably sees this as an opportunity to elevate his profile to get a better gig or maybe even a path back to the NFL.

He's going to have a huge physical advantage in those 50/50 balls in most cases. This is a guy who set his sights on the NFL, and seems to be on course to let nothing derail that plan. We're talking strong here.

Kick-off specilist> Smith has shown an ability to kick the ball out of the end zone, recording kickoffs on 44 of his 62 opportunities. That was an issue for the Badgers last season, leading to some special-teams coverage struggles throughout the year.
 
According to a report, Northwestern's Big Ten football game Oct. 19 against Wisconsin is to be played at Lambeau Field.
