No. 4-ranked Alabama will head north to play the Wisconsin Badgers during Week 3 of NCAA football season this weekend, their first visit to Madison in 96 years. Though both teams have won their two previous matchups this season, it's unclear whether several of the Badgers' key players, including running back Tawee Walker and safety Xavier Lucas will play after suffering injuries during the first two games of the season. Quarterback Jalen Milroe is expected to play for Alabama on Saturday.
