6 Pack Of Questions With A Wisconsin Badgers Football Expert
By Joe Favia
Q: Troy Fumagalli is getting a lot of John Mackey and All-American preseason love. Is it safe to say he’s the biggest weapon for the Badgers?
Noah: Yes… Jazz Peavy is a nice weapon as well on jet sweeps and out of the slot. But I’m pretty sure the QB progressions will be
(1) Fumagalli
(2) still Fumagalli
(3) Peavy
(4) wait, is Fumagalli open?
The first snap of the spring game was a pass to Fumagalli. He’s a big target with soft hands who will hurt defenses down the seam and over the middle. That means the X and Z wide receivers should have opportunities especially outside the numbers with Fumagalli commanding so much attention. Last year Fumagalli and Peavy combined for 90 of the Badgers 202 pass receptions.
