A look at how to watch Saturday’s college football game between the Akron Zips and the Wisconsin Badgers.
Week 2 of the college football season kicks off on Saturday afternoon, and will see a full slate of games. The action won’t be as packed as Week 1, especially with all the ranked teams that are playing low-end FBS teams. One of those will see Wisconsin host Akron.
The Badgers walked into Week 1 unranked and battled AP Poll No. 5 LSU at the Green Bay Packers’ Lambeau Field. After a low-scoring, hard-fought game, Wisconsin upset one of the top teams in college football 16-14. This skyrocketed them all the way to No. 10 in the nation, placing them in a prominent position that’s theirs to lose. Only Ohio State and Michigan are ahead of them from the Big Ten.
Akron may be an easier test for Wisconsin. However, Zips quarterback showed off an impressive stat line in Week 1, throwing for 407 yards on 32 attempts for six touchdowns. Despite this being against the VMI Keydets, it may be something to watch for on Saturday.
As for players to watch for from Wisconsin, wide receiver Troy Fumagalli looked effective in Week 1. He totaled 100 receiving yards on seven receptions in the victory over LSU.
