Dare Ogunbowale

With projected starter Corey Clement sidelined for most of the season with a sports hernia, Ogunbowale was the biggest beneficiary in the Wisconsin backfield last season. He was able to run for 819 yards on 194 carries while reaching paydirt seven times. Now that Clement is back, Ogunbowale figures to be a change-of-pace second back thanks to his ability to make plays in the passing game. He finished second on the team in receptions (36) and fourth in receiving yards (299), which should be enough for him to have an edge in workload over Taiwan Deal. While Ogunbowale does have an edge over Deal, he’ll still be a secondary back at best and there’s a distinct possibility that Clement will get well over 200 carries and the majority of the goal line work.
