Luke Fickell Comments On Starting Quarterback For Badgers’ Bowl Game

The Wisconsin Badgers will take on Oklahoma State in the Guaranteed Rate Bowl this year.  It will be held on December 27th, at 9:15 CT in Phoenix, AZ.  This Wisconsin Badgers team looks much different than it did at the beginning of the season.  In fact, both programs have undergone significant changes in recent weeks.  Wisconsin also has a new head coach in Luke Fickell, who left incoming Big 12 member Cincinnati for one of the most consistent teams in the FBS. The Badgers (6-6, 4-5 Big Ten) are set to face the Cowboys (7-5, 4-5 Big 12).  Kickoff will be inside Chase Field and will air on ESPN.  Today Luke Fickell commented on the Badgers’ starting quarterback for the bowl game.

Luke Fickell Comments On Starting Quarterback For Guaranteed Rate Bowl

On Chase Wolf:

“Yes, Chase, one of the veterans, an older guy who has been around and knows the offense. He has had some playing time, obviously. He was the backup. So I think it will be a pretty smooth transition for him to step up and play well tomorrow.

On Myles Burkett:

“And Myles, just a lot of maturity since day one. He’s been willing to learn and do everything that he can to be ready to play. I thought that he did a great job throughout the bowl prep. And I think, if he were to be the quarterback, he would be ready for it. I think both of them will give us a great chance to win.”
