1-2. Jack Sanborn and John Chenal

These two defensive players are the heart and soul of the Badgers’ defense. The Badgers may have gotten blown out against Michigan, but these two left it all out on the field.

Sanborn finished with a team-leading 13 total tackles, while Chenal was right on his heels with 12 total tackles on Saturday. Sanborn’s career-high was 14 entering Saturday, so only one short of tying his career-high.

Wisconsin had 80 total tackles against the Wolverines. Crazy to think that these two produced 25 total tackles just by themselves. Both of these players will be playing at the next level in the NFL.
