Michigan’s Mike Zordich praises Camp Randall, rabid Wisconsin fanbase
Published:
Camp Randall Stadium will be the site of the most important B1G game to date this season. It’s only Week 4 and there are plenty of key matchups remaining, but No. 11 Michigan traveling to No. 13 Wisconsin sets up and important early-season conference matchup.
Michigan cornerbacks coach Mike Zordich is expecting a rowdy atmosphere from one of the best venues in college football.
“Great atmosphere,” Zordich said about Madison, according to Angelique Chengelis of The Detroit News. “It’s a hell of a place. Great fanbase.”
Zordich also had a funny quip about the early kickoff time and what he expected from Badger fans on Saturday.
Zordich on Wisconsin: "Great atmosphere. It's a hell of a place. Great fanbase." I jokingly suggested maybe not as inebriated at 11 a.m? LOL. "That I can't answer, but I would think they're probably pretty used to 11 a.m. games. They do pretty good for themselves." LOL

Both Michigan and Wisconsin enter the game 2-0 with a chance to add a marquee win to their resumé early in the year. It could also have B1G Championship Game implications, even in mid-September.

It’s been awhile since Michigan last won in Camp Randall, with the last victory coming in 2001. So the Wolverines have their work cut out for them. But it should be a fun matchup in Madison.
And yes, the fans should be ready to go, as well.
