MADISON, WI (MetroSource) – Wisconsin Badgers linebacker Chris Orr is out for the season with a right knee injury.
He was hurt on UW’s first defensive play of the season in Saturday’s upset win over LSU.
Ryan Connelly will take over in his place.
The Wisconsin Badgers could be joining the rankings today. Wisconsin should crack the top-25 of the Coaches’ Poll this week following its 16-14 upset win over sixth-ranked LSU on Saturday at Lambeau Field.
The Badgers were just outside of the rankings entering the season, receiving 82 votes.
Wisconsin hosts Akron this Saturday.
