MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Northwestern quarterback Ben Bryant has been around long enough to feel comfortable he wouldn’t need to worry about a rust factor as he played his first game since late September.
“Maybe if I was a redshirt freshman, maybe,” the graduate student in his sixth year of eligibility said Saturday after Northwestern’s 24-10 victory over Wisconsin. “But I’m so experienced. I’ve played in so many games. I think all that just plays into helping me, just knowing how to handle the nerves, handle the environment, handle the pressure.”
