If you have ever officiated football or basketball, you have been taught this basic principle: Look away from the ball — you have to see the action transpiring elsewhere on the playing surface.

While the Wisconsin Badgers lost a heavy (no pun intended) amount of talented offensive linemen, don’t expect a significant drop-off in the UW running attack in 2015.
