Senior quarterback Tyler Van Dyke and the Wisconsin Badgers are hosting the fourth-ranked Alabama Crimson Tide on Saturday. It’s one of the top games on the Week 3 college football slate.
Led by the Miami (F) transfer, Wisconsin opened the season with cupcake wins over Western Michigan and South Dakota. Obviously, this is the program’s first real challenge of the campaign.
Things started good for Wisconsin inside Camp Randall Stadium. That included a game-opening field goal drive to give the Badgers a 3-0 lead.
Unfortunately, Van Dyke was injured on a scramble during that initial drive. He immediately clutched for his right knee and was ultimately carted off the field.
There are no further updates on Van Dyke’s status. But that certainly did not look good.
Sophomore Braedyn Locke took over under center for Wisconsin, leading the offense the rest of the way en rout to getting a field goal. He appeared in five games as a freshman last season, throwing five touchdowns against one interception.
