Probably nobody on the University of Wisconsin football team is looking forward to the trip to Tampa, Fla., for the Outback Bowl more than sophomore running back Lance Smith.
“I’m telling everybody, ‘I love playing in Camp Randall, but I’m just ready to get on a plane with my teammates,’ ” Smith said after the Badgers started bowl practices on Friday. “I wasn’t able to do that this year and just fly to a nice environment and play football and get on the field and make plays for my teammates.”
