Lucas' Five Takes: Wisconsin vs. Akron

Mike Lucas' thoughts on the Badgers' win over Akron

By: Mike Lucas

UWBadgers.com Senior Writer Mike Lucas offered his observations from Wisconsin's 54-10 win over Akron at Camp Randall Stadium. Get it straight from the source by following @LucasAtLarge on Twitter.

Any question about complacency was erased on first series that featured 6 straight "Slam it at'em" runs. Imposed will on Akron immediately
— Mike Lucas (@LucasAtLarge) September 10, 2016

Fumagalli was the "go 2 receiver" vs LSU. Peavy assumed that role vs Akron. Wheelwright has been constant. Secondaries must defend the field
— Mike Lucas (@LucasAtLarge) September 10, 2016

Valuable game reps for Deal & Shaw at TB, Connors at center, Hornibrook at QB, Taylor & Cephus at WR. Developing depth always a positive
— Mike Lucas (@LucasAtLarge) September 10, 2016

TJ Edwards return to LB helps make defense more complete despite loss of Chris Orr. Players responding to Justin Wilcox scheme/approach
— Mike Lucas (@LucasAtLarge) September 10, 2016

Jamerson injury concerning because of his play in the nickel package as 3rd corner. Shelton & Tindal have done a good job playing deep ball
