Jump Around
At Camp Randall Stadium the break between the third and fourth quarters is given over to the crowd jumping in unison to a song that has been played there since 1998. The movement is measurable on seismographs, and engineers have inspected the structure because of it.
It is among the few in-game traditions that visiting supporters actively look forward to, and it has outlasted several attempts to retire it.
WIS history
An identity built up front
For most of the modern era Wisconsin has been defined by offensive line play and a power running game, producing a long line of professional linemen and running backs from a state that does not produce recruits in Georgia or Florida volume.
The success has come from development rather than recruiting rankings — building rosters out of players other programs undervalued and coaching them into a specific system.
