Watching Wisconsin linebacker defend Army’s triple option was hard to believe at times on Saturday. During the Badgers’ 20-14 win over the Black Knights, Chenal lined up in a variety of spots, and had plays where he was in the backfield so fast that he nearly took the snap from the Army center.
Chenal also came up with the game-sealing play for the Badgers, exploding off the snap into the backfield to force a fourth-quarter strip sack and give Wisconsin the win.
The inside linebacker tallied a career-high 17 tackles in the win, and earned himself a spot on Pro Football Focus’ Defensive Team of the Week in college football.
