Bryson Williams is a nose-tackle for Wisconsin. He has helped the Badgers’ defense reach unthinkable success this season — not as a team, but as a defense.
Williams is also originally from the state of Nebraska. He, of course, was looking forward to playing in Lincoln as a member of the Badgers so that he could play in front of friends and family.

Unfortunately, it was announced Monday morning that Williams will be out for the Badgers-Huskers game due to a knee injury suffered against Iowa this past weekend:
No surprise: #Badgers NT Bryson Williams out this week. Hurt left knee against Iowa. He had been eager to play NEB in Lincoln in front of friends and family.
