On the ground, running back Braelon Allen has been a consistent performer for Wisconsin, amassing 165 rushing yards and two touchdowns in one standout game. His performance has not only showcased his ability to break through defenses but also his crucial role in balancing the Badgers' offensive attack.


Wide receiver Chimere Dike's contributions cannot be overlooked either. With 105 receiving yards and a touchdown in one game, Dike has proven to be a reliable target for Mordecai. His knack for making significant plays has been evident throughout the season.


On the defensive side, linebacker Jordan Turner's presence has been felt across each game. With an interception and multiple tackles in recent matchups, Turner's defensive prowess will be vital in containing the Broncos' offense.


Turning our attention to Western Michigan Broncos, quarterback Hayden Wolff stands out with 333 passing yards and three touchdowns in his best performance this season. Wolff's arm strength and accuracy pose a challenge for any defense he faces.


Running back CJ Hester is another Bronco to watch, having rushed for 117 yards and two touchdowns in one game. His agility and speed make him a threat every time he carries the ball.
