LSU won. Wiscy did some very strange things in the second half. Again, it's August football. Anyone that says they know the significance of what happened Saturday night before October has no clue what they are talking about.

It could be a good win, it could be an average win.

I didn't say LSU didn't deserve to win. They did everything they needed to do when it mattered. I only said Wiscy made some 2nd half mistakes and lost the game as much as LSU won it. That point is debatable. Maybe Wiscy made it easier for LSU to win. I'm not sure.

I know people keep saying this, but they did what they had to. We sold out to stop the run by run blitzing every play in the 2nd half, they had 8 carries for 20 yards after their opening drive. After we figured out our DBs could blanket their WRs all game and McEvoy couldnt hit the broadside of a barn we stuffed 8 guys in the box and kept meeting the RBs in the backfield instead of letting Wisconsin's OL open up huge holes in our front 4.

It was an adjustment we made that affected their running game and forced them to start throwing it if they wanted to move the ball.

Wisconsin threw 5 passes in the 1st quarter
Wisconsin threw 8 passes in the 2nd quarter.
Wisconsin threw 4 passes in the 3rd quarter.
Wisconsin threw 7 passes in the 4th quarter.

All but one of their passes in the 4th quarter came while LSU had a 28-24 lead.
