Luke Fickell ‘really happy’ with Wisconsin football’s competitive spirt during scrimmage

Fall camp begins to wrap up as the Badgers are two weeks away from the season opener.

MADISON, Wis. — Watch and listen to coach Luke Fickell after the University of Wisconsin football team’s 15th preseason practice Sunday on the field north of Camp Randall Stadium.

More fall camp interviews will drop on Badger Observer throughout August. We’ve already published videos of the following since Aug. 5:

Now’s the perfect time to take advantage of Badger Observer’s new deal where fans can get ALL the coverage from Big Ten football media days, fall camp, recruiting and much more for $2 a month or $20/year!

Among the topics discussed with Fickell included:

  • Being pleased with how the team came out Sunday after a few days of backing off the physicality during practices

  • Darrion Dupree’s workload Sunday

  • Wide receiver Shamar Rigby

  • “There’s some things we got to figure out, probably in the next five days” about injured offensive linemen Emerson Mandell and Kevin Heywood

  • Special teams

  • Redshirt sophomore tight end Grant Stec

  • The increase in number of players who can be on travel rosters this season
