The real problem was in the preseason rankings. UW was always a top 20 team, the national media only has room for OSU and Mich when it comes to the B1G. If they are doing well it completely drowns out every other team in the conference. This was, mistakenly, the first time in a decade that UW was...
How so? This is The Rant, they can take a little bit in their grits. :pimp:...
This seems like the best place to put this so here goes. First off, good game, other than Orr there didn't seem to be many lasting injuries so that is always a good place to start. People are still way underselling UW (and the Lambeau factor), LSU is going to be fine. UW has won 30 games...
Overconfident Tigers look to regroup after disappointing slugfest in Lambeau... Clement steals the show in season opener... :cheers:...
I wouldn't rely on the video too much with him. He has only really played in one game, Illinois last year, and it was crazy windy. He actually has a pretty solid arm and has by far the most zip of any QB on the team. Decision making has been his limiting factor so far....
Driftless is clearly trolling, but this is a question that there is no answer for. Every neutral observer of that camp came away saying Stave was the clear starter, McEvoy was intriguing as a runner but there was no way he was a B1G QB. Suffice it to say, Andersen is now at Oregon St because UW's ...
LSU is clearly a more storied program than UW, but we take this football thing pretty seriously up here too. I have to say after the last game we played where we knocked you around for three quarters before 2 of our 3 dlinemen were hurt (plus MGIII) would have given you guys a little more respect fo...

Every gas station sells beer, most sell liquor as well. Cool fact for those with families going, in Wisconsin children under 21 are allowed to be served as long as they are with their parents (and at the bars discretion). Probably won't let it fly at the beer gardens on gameday but if you go out t...

re: Dillon Gordon vs. Wisconsin

Posted by Johnkester59 on 8/26/14 at 11:36 am
It is a 3-4 built on quickness and unpredictable pressure, its not the NFL/Bama version with 320+ linemen eating blocks. You may be right and it won't work vs LSU but the size differential along the line is not surprising given the design of the D. We are going to try to bring more guys than you c...

M[quote]Is Greenbay a big enough city to handle all your fans & 30K LSU fans, or should we try & stay in Milwaukee for instance? If not there, where is the next most practical city to stay for 3/4 days?[/quote] Haha, no it is not. I would guess that every hotel in Green Bay is already sold out...

Of course I'm going to disappear, win l...

[quote]how much better (presumably) is this Wisconsin team to the Iowa team LSU played in the bowl game last year?[/quote] Its tough to say for sure until we see how the front 7 comes together but I would say significantly. Iowa's RB was Mark Weismen who ran for 938 yards at 4.5 ypc and 7 TDs. ...
Just to add some thoughts to the last post; The turnover on D is not as concerning as it would normally be. We are still in the midst of a transition from a 4-3 to a 3-4 under new coordinator Dave Aranda. Last year with the completely wrong personal to run what he wanted UW still finished with a ...
