Wisconsin prepares to face Notre Dame cornerback Leonard Moore
Summary

Wisconsin head coach Luke Fickell addressed the upcoming matchup against Notre Dame cornerback Leonard Moore. Widely regarded as a top defensive player in the country, Moore remains a primary focus for opposing offenses. Despite Moore's reputation as a potential early NFL draft pick, Fickell stated that the Badgers plan to maintain their offensive scheme rather than avoiding the cornerback entirely. Fickell noted that Wisconsin intends to challenge Moore in multiple facets of the game, including his ability to set edges and tackle. This approach serves as a test for the Badgers, who look to show improvement following a difficult season last year. The team remains committed to executing their standard game plan while accounting for Moore’s presence on the field.
