Wisconsin defeated three top 10 teams this year and lost by a touchdown to two others.Now comes the hard part of the schedule: Saturday at Northwestern (nn ET, ABC).Huh? Dont laugh.The Wildcats (4-4, 3-2), who come into the contest tied with the No. 8 Badgers (6-2, 3-2), Minnesota and Iowa for second place in the Big Tens West Division -- one game behind Nebraska, have been a genuine thorn in the side to their neighbors to the north. The two campuses are only 142 miles apart.Wisconsin hasnt won at Ryan Field since 1999, a span of 17 years. The teams have met 10 times since with the Wildcats claiming a 6-4 advantage, including all four games played in Evanston.So maybe for an outsider lking in the contest doesnt seem as big for Wisconsin as playing LSU in Lambeau Field or handing Nebraska its first loss of the season 23-17 in overtime last week, but Badgers coach Paul Chryst has preached to his squad the importance of remaining focused heading into a November stretch that also includes games with Illinois (2-6, 1-4), Purdue (3-5, 1-4) and a season-ending showdown with Minnesota (6-2, 3-2).I think it is easy to buy into what people may be saying on the outside as far as getting through the gauntlet and this being the easy part of the schedule, Wisconsin cornerback Sojourn Shelton told UWBadgers.com. No part of playing college ftball games (is) easy. Our whole thing is just not getting complacent. I think weve played pretty gd ftball. Now its just staying consistent.Youve got to try and ignore all the outside noise because none of it matters, Chryst said. We know this is a tough stretch.Especially with the way Northwestern played in October. The Wildcats went 3-1 with road wins at Iowa 38-31 and Michigan State 54-40 and a home victory over Indiana 24-14. The lone loss came last week at No. 6 Ohio State 24-20.The 3-1 October helped take some of the sting away from a pr 1/3 September that included back-to-back home losses to Western Michigan 22-21 and Illinois State 9-7.Its easy to come and show up for an Ohio State, or a Michigan State or an Iowa -- weve got to show up every game, and its really biting us in the butt right now, Northwestern quarterback Clayton Thorson said. Were a 4-4 ftball team, a .500 ftball team, and we know we shouldnt be.Northwestern would have shared the division lead had it beaten Ohio State last SaturdayIt obviously didnt start the way we wanted it to, spotting them a couple scores, but the guys didnt flinch and kept swinging, Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald said after the game. And, you know, we ended up one punch short.Buckeyes running back Curtis Samuel ran for a 3-yard touchdown with 9:43 left to break a 17-17 tie for a 24-17 lead. The Wildcats drove to the Ohio State 3 but had to settle for a 33-yard Jack Mitchell field goal that cut the deficit to 24-20.Ohio State quarterback J.T. Barrett converted a pair of third downs on the late drive that ate up the clock and denied Northwestern a final possession.Thorson was 22 of 42 for 256 yards with a touchdown and a first-quarter interception for Northwestern. Austin Carr, the Big Tens leading receiver, caught eight passes for a career-high 158 yards while Garrett Dickerson had a career-best eight grabs for 43 yards and a TD.Thorson has 15 touchdown passes, tied with Dan Persa (2010) for ninth all-time in a season at Northwestern.Carr, who caught a pass in his 17th consecutive game, moved into seventh in schl single-season history with 878 receiving yards.Meanwhile, Wisconsin used a strong running game, in particular from Corey Clement, to knock off Nebraska.Senior Dare Ogunbowale rushed for 120 yards and a touchdown, Clement added 82 yards and freshman Bradrick Shaw scored a touchdown.I thought the run game was big, Chryst said.The passing game was a different matter. Redshirt freshman quarterback Alex Hornibrk started, but fifth-year senior Bart Houston ended the game. Hornibrk was 10 of 16 for 71 yards and a touchdown, while Houston completed 4 of 7 passes for 43 yards. Both quarterbacks threw an interception.There are a lot of things we need to work on in the quarterback rm, Houston said.Chryst said Hornibrk will be the starter at quarterback against Northwestern. Hornibrk completed 75 of 131 passes for 948 yards with six touchdowns and seven interceptions. Houston is 52 of 84 for 629 yards with three touchdowns and three interceptions.

NEW YORK -- The Associated Press has revamped the roster for its All-Pro team, beginning this season.In an effort to more accurately reflect the way teams deploy their players, the AP and its panel of 50 sports writers and broadcasters who regularly cover the NFL have made adjustments on offense, defense and special teams.On offense, linemen will now be voted for by specific position: left tackle, left guard, etc. There will be only one running back on the All-Pro team, but we are adding a flex player (running back, fullback, tight end or wide receiver, voters choice). The flex player is designed to recognize the frequency of three receiver sets or the use of two tight ends.On defense, the AP is adding a defensive back (DB) designation for the secondary. This is to recognize the importance of the sslot cornerback in todays defenses.dddddddddddd. The DB can be a safety or a cornerback; the idea is to reward defensive backs who cover slot receivers.We also are changing the listing of positions on the front seven to two edge rushers (basically 4-3 defensive ends and 3-4 outside linebackers), two interior defensive linemen (basically 3-4 DEs, nose tackles and 4-3 defensive tackles), and three linebackers.On special teams, a punt returner and a special teams player (non-returners) have been added to kickoff returner, placekicker and punter.The AP will announce its All-Pro team on Jan. 6.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
