Alabama recorded touchdown passes of 55, 84, and 43 yards and rushing scores of 56, 40, and 85 yards. According to a stat from ESPN, the Tide has six plays of 40-plus yards this season — which is tied for second most in Football Bowl Subdivision.

Alabama will have opportunities for big plays against Wisconsin, but will it be overly dependent on them?

We will see how the Tide operates against the Badgers at Camp Randall Stadium.
