MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Wisconsin is replacing one of the nation’s more experienced college quarterbacks with a guy who had thrown just one career pass before last week. Braedyn Locke is Wisconsin’s starting quarterback for the foreseeable future with sixth-year senior Tanner Mordecai out indefinitely after breaking his hand in a 15-6 loss to Iowa. Locke had appeared in just one college game before playing the entire second half against Iowa. The Badgers are betting that Locke’s work ethic can help him make up for his lack of experience. The Mississippi State transfer makes his first career start Saturday when Wisconsin visits Illinois.
