3. A Packed Camp Randall Stadium

Last year sucked. There’s no way around it. Players talked about having to bring their own energy because there were no fans in the crowd.

That changes this year.

Camp Randall will be back and rocking. You can bet after a year of missing out on games, fans are chomping at the bit to get back into Camp Randall and Jump Around. Maybe it’s just wishful thinking, but I think a majority of the students will even show up by kickoff, as Mertz was urging them to be.

Whether fans get there right away or not, the stadium will be packed at some point. Fans make a huge difference. I think the Badgers are going to feed off of the energy of the crowd and create a hostile environment for Penn State. helping Wisconsin to a win.
