Wisconsin will be without top running back Chez Mellusi for this weekend's game against Purdue. He had 232 yards and three touchdowns through four games.

Purdue has historically had a hard time with Wisconsin. And perhaps you’ve heard: Purdue has a new offensive play-caller. Perhaps you’ve heard: Purdue has lost three straight. Saturday in Madison, a bunch of storylines play out.

No game is a gimme in the Big Ten and the University of Wisconsin football team will surely have to find answers against a Purdue team searching for the same. The Badgers (2-2, 0-1 Big Ten) had a second-half collapse last week at Southern Cal after they forced turnovers to build a two-score lead.
