Wisconsin football will be without its usual play-by-play announcer on Saturday.
Matt Lepay, the Badgers’ Director of Broadcasting, announced on Twitter Monday afternoon that he would miss the game on Saturday as he attends a celebration of life for his sister.
Won’t be the same without the Voice of the Badgers on Saturday (first time since 1994). Even though you won’t be at Camp Randall, the Badger family will be thinking of you. ❤️ https://t.co/6F3AOeNDvo
