Wisconsin’s Rob Havenstein didn’t have to wait long to find out where he would start his NFL career.  Havenstein received the call from the St. Louis Rams, in round number two (57th overall).  Havenstein was projected by many as a third-round selection or later.

Havenstein was the eighth offensive tackle selected in this draft.  He was the 17th UW offensive lineman drafted since 2000, after starting 42 games at right tackle for the Badgers.

The Rams are trying to bolster their offensive line and offense overall.  They selected Georgia tailback Todd Gurley in the opening round on Thursday night with the 10th overall pick.

The Rams also selected Louisville left tackle Jamon Brown in the third round, No. 72 overall.

The 17/19 ranked Wisconsin Badgers pulled away in the second half to knock off the South Florida Bulls 27-10 in the final non-conference game at Camp Randall Stadium on Saturday.

The game was ugly early and the Bulls managed to take a 3-3 tie into the lockerroom at halftime against the Badgers.  Wisconsin managed just 139 yards of total offense in the first half.

Wisconsin’s Melvin Gordon and Rob Havenstein both felt the need to address the team at halftime.  “We were walking in and we said we’ve got to talk to these guys,” Gordon said.  “I was having flashbacks of Week 2, and we went in that game and I didn’t say anything and big Rob didn’t say anything.

“This time we felt like we needed to rally our offense together and speak up.  We motivated those guys and obviously we were a different team.” [Read more…]

The Big Ten’s preseason football meetings are underway in Chicago today.

Wisconsin coach Gary Andersen is on hand for the next two days with junior tailback Melvin Gordon, senior offensive tackle Rob Havenstein and senior defensive lineman Warren Herring.

The Badgers have already been picked by a panel of Big Ten Conference sportswriters to win the new West Division in 2014, edging out Iowa.

Today, Gordon and Havenstein earned preseason recognition from the Big Ten Conference, both selected to the Players to Watch list for the league’s West Division.

The Badgers are among 10 tabbed to the Players to Watch list, which includes five honorees each from the East and West Divisions.

Gordon enters the season as the nation’s second-leading returning rusher behind fellow West Division Player to Watch Ameer Abdullah of Nebraska.  Abdullah rushed for 1,690 yards last season, while Gordon piled up 1,609 yards.

Havenstein heads into his senior season as the Badgers’ most experienced player with 40 career games to his credit and he has made 27 consecutive starts at right tackle.
