Per the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel’s Jeff Potrykus, arguably the most connected reporter for the Badgers, Wisconsin running back Corey Clement will not play Saturday against Minnesota due to off the field issues.
After details emerged that Clement threw the first punch and was charged with two counts of disorderly conduct, it appears Wisconsin head coach Paul Chryst has made the decision to bench Clement for this game. Considering his injury issues to begin with, “suspending” Clement does not come as a surprise.

Dare Ogunbowale, Taiwan Deal, and Alec Ingold will share the backfield, as it seems they have all season.
Chryst nor the Badgers (including usual scoop man and commentator Mike Lucas) have made an official statement.
