College Football News Preview 2020: Top Wisconsin Badgers Players

Best Wisconsin Badgers Offensive Player

RB Jalen Berger, Fr.
Let’s just get there already. As always, a few Badgers will be givens on the All-Big Ten teams, Jake Ferguson will be an all-star tight end, and either Jack Coan or Graham Mertz could rise up and be the star of the offense if one can raise the quarterback play.

Garrett Groshek and Nakia Watson are fine running backs – and one could blow up statistically by taking over the job with Jonathan Taylor gone – but the 6-0, 205-pound Berger is the type of talented runner who can be the next superstar in the system.

LSU, Alabama, Penn State, Ohio State, and on and on and on – everyone wanted him. Wisconsin got him, and they might ask him to lead the way immediately.

Best Wisconsin Badgers Defensive Player

LB Jack Sanborn, Jr. 
All he had to do was try to replace TJ Edwards on the inside of the Wisconsin linebacking corps. It helped to have Chris Orr alongside him, but he still more than did his part with a team-leading 80 tackles with 5.5 sacks, nine tackles for loss and three picks. The 6-2, 232-pounder has great range, a good burst, and now he gets to be one of the leaders in another terrific Badger defensive front seven.

5. CB Faion Hicks, Jr.
