Um, maybe you just went off on a tangent, but the OP said "tackler," not "tackle." Wisconsin's loss of Taylor has no effect on Brandon Graham.

Wisonsin surprised me a bit this year... I had them as a 7-6 bowl team (based mostly on Bielema being Bielema). They are 5-2 with two "good" losses, and the remaining schedule sets up nice for a 9-3/8-4 regular season (losing 1 or 2 of UM, @IU or @Nw). If they can win at home against UM (UW is a 3 point favorite on "futures" bets right now), and don't slip up on the road against IU and Nw, they have a shot at 10-2. They are what Illinois was supposed to be.
