SCOUTING THE OFFENSE: Wisconsin heads into its 12th bowl in 13 years bearing the Big Ten's top rushing offense with 212 yards per game. The Badgers boast a devastating tailback tandem in junior P.J. Hill and redshirt freshman John Clay, both of whom produced three 100-yard games in the last four weeks. They get to run behind a line laden with seniors intent on going out the right way. But QB Dustin Sherer, who started the final six games, has shown significant improvement as opponents try to force the Badgers to pass. He threw for 487 yards and two touchdowns in the final two regular-season games. WR David Gilreath, already a kick-return savant, became a special threat near the end of the year.
