re: Official: Les Miles & Cameron Fired; Coach O named Interim

I watched the game yesterday and it was aggravating. Terrible waste of talent.
Les really did need to go.......

[quote]With all due respect, I have to say I'm a little more than irritated by seeing the offense look like it did yesterday. [/quote]
I don't have the expertise to back this up, but I felt like Paul Chryst did a much better job of adding wrinkles to the Badger offense that enabled our non-stella...
re: Who is on your HC short list?
Posted by zoobadger on 9/4/16 at 3:42 pm
You guys should replace Cam Cameron and give Les another year. LSU defense will be stellar this year, and your schedule isn't easy, but two more losses is the floor, IMO.
Look what happened at ND and Michigan when they had a revolving door of HC's.
I agree, however, that with your talent you...

[quote]They were really nice. Partly because they didn't have any expectation of winning and partly because they felt bad for us.[/quote]
The new playoff format is a huge step forward compared to the BCS, but limiting the playoffs to four teams kinda sucks; one bad loss in week one and your hopes...

[quote]Wisconsin is good - I've been saying that for weeks. I knew the game would be close and told the ranters who were predicting a blowout that they were nuts. But we have more talent than Wisconsin - probably at every single position. [/quote]

[quote]their defense matches up poorly against our offense (both in ability and in size).[/quote]
You guys are just pulling stuff out of thin air in this thread. First of all, this team will be better than last year. The OL was a cluster**** due to injuries and youth. Much better this year. Our m...

I don't know about that, lol... App State just needed a little more depth - all the guys cramping up - to win that game by ten.
App State, back when they were still FCS beat Michigan in the Big House. ...

That's true for sure. LSU will need to be as good as advertised to win easily....
re: Rewatched the Wisc-USC game
Posted by zoobadger on 9/1/16 at 8:43 am
Badgers have a lot of experience returning on defense, and expect big things from some new faces, especially TJ Watt.
Safety is primary area of concern. CB's had a good camp and I feel OK there other than lack of depth.
I'm hopeful we'll keep it close, anyway. New DC expected to retain 3-4 a...

[quote]Making Harris beat you is your best chance for success[/quote]
No doubt. I fear your OL and run game is good enough that you won't need to resort to anything too exotic in the passing game. We Badger fans understand better than anybody that if you run the ball well your QB can be a game ma...

[quote]This is promising.[/quote]
Yeah... And add to that the obvious need to put ten guys in the box which puts our untested DB's on a island.
It's a net negative that you guys have Aranda on your sideline, but perhaps less so in our case since our coaches and players know his schemes and te...

re: what is Wisconsin's forte'?
Posted by zoobadger on 8/30/16 at 6:59 pm
Let me preface this by noting that I expect LSU to win the game.
That said....
On offense, Wisconsin runs the football. Typically the OL and RB's are very good. Last year due to injuries and youth the OL was a total cluster****. Add to that, Corey Clement, who we expected to be a potent workh...

[quote]Yeah, Bama trucked us pretty good. You know it's a bad day when you've got them in 3rd and 26 and Kenyon Drake goes the distance. Though, we did have them 14-7 at half (and it should have been 14-10, but fatty bricked a 34 yarder).[/quote]

re: Bart Huston named starting QB for the Badgers
Posted by zoobadger on 8/26/16 at 11:18 am
Obviously, Wisconsin will need to establish the run and play very good defense to keep it close against LSU.
Even if BH evolves into a good B1G QB by the end of the year, there's no way we win this one if BH needs to be more than a game manager who picks up a few key 1st downs and avoids mistake...
re: Talking heads are calling for Fournette to sit out this season
Posted by zoobadger on 8/17/16 at 8:08 pm
One of the reasons I strongly prefer college football to the NFL is that the running game MATTERS in college football. And that's something Wisconsin and LSU have in common; we win when we run the ball successfully.
Play action and the OL winning in the trenches. RB's in the NFL have to catch the...

Good reading...
So different from Wisconsin where we'd be happy with 8 wins this year and a respectable bowl berth (Holiday, Outback, etc).
A few random thoughts:
I don't think Dave Aranda would have taken the job if he didn't feel LSU had the personnel on defense to run his system. It's c...
