Every fanbase has it's share of loud-mouth, delusional blockheads.
But I think Badger fans, on the whole, are probably better-informed and more realistic than some of our B1G rivals.
I should have also noted in my previous post that Wisconsin's admission standards are comparatively strict. If a kid couldn't get into a respectable state school irrespective of football, he can't get admitted at Wisconsin.
That's not to say our scholarship athletes could get into Wisconsin if they weren't football prospects. Even DIII schools will bend the rules for a kid who can play football.
I don't know that this is a detriment, though. Five star players from Texas aren't going to Wisconsin, anyway. Might as well recruit the bright, coachable in-state players who are overlooked but can be developed. It's worked for us. We've gotten some really good kids out of Ohio, New Jersey, and other states because they came from a smaller HS, or like Ron Dayne, fit our system in a way that wasn't true at Michigan or LSU.

Good posts guy.
The biggest factor in this game will be speed. Wisconsin has too many white boys to hang with a top end SEC team. Not being racist, just realistic.
With all due respect, prepare yourself for a hugely disappointing opener... This LSU team is loaded and hungry.
Here's hoping both teams stay healthy.
