I think writing the Badgers off is now off the board. I don't wanna hear the if's and butt's , they look better than us today.

O lineman catching that tipped ball was a killer. Hard to blame him in the moment. Fvcking meathead. 😁

That OLineman that caught the ball… really killed them. They could have gotten into FG range, but they panicked.

I wonder if those Wisky passes would be made if there were 40mph winds. Lots of ifs ands and buts. We definitely could blow this Wisky team out or lose. Depends on the week at this point. They are getting better as the Newby QB settles into the role though.
They wouldn't need too as the running game was working, they practiced their passing game today. Rutgers sucks.

It must be nice to have a running back who can run for over a hundred yards.
Its hard since there must be a rule all four RB's have to have carries in a game. Is it any wonder NU can't get a great RB these days when this team almost doesn't want "the man?"

Crazy ending to the Alabama game. That was like peak Nebraska right there. Do everything to stay in the game but South Carolina failed to execute when it counts.

When none of them can do everything you need them to do, what would you suggest?

And let’s be clear. Wisconsin doesn’t have a great rb. They have a good oline.

After watching the Offensive explosions of Wisconsin and Iowa makes me wonder what the heck happened to our Offense?? Why did ours go into a shell?

Rutgers pretty much shut us down and then gets blown out by Wisconsin?

Fortunate we are 5-1 because the second part of the season looks to be tough going!

Rutgers is bad but they have also quit. They were so geeked up for some "magical" season and that totally fell apart vs NU.

We suck on offense, especially OL, and that’s evident to anyone who’s knows anything about football. We haven’t played a single team that is “good” to this point. Illinois.. decent. Colorado.. meh. Everyone else… trash

We still haven’t played the best 5 teams on our schedule so I wouldn’t be jacking off just yet like some of the posters on this board.
But that is every year on this site

I know O line is terrible. It has been that way for years! It is a shame because DR is a really good QB.

We’ll find out how good or bad Colorado is. They have the same record as us.

Penn State more than a yard short of a first down, the side judge comes in and marks him a yard short, but someone on the crew just decides to gift them a first down. B1G refs at their finest.

Oklahoma's QB is insanely mobile. I think they have a much better shot in this game than people are giving credit.

We have a 7-win team IMO. Perhaps the team will surprise me, but I would not be surprised in the slightest if we lose big to OSU, USC and Wisconsin.
I believe we beat UCLA and Iowa. But I’m concerned about Iowa RB it will come down to us being able to score 30 plus on them.

I hope not. Not many teams score 30 plus on them. And we are averaging 28 points per game, which includes games against some pretty bad defenses.

Yeah, it’s easy to forget DR is just a true frosh.
I do wish our OL play would improve but it isn’t very good and hasn’t been
Our improvement in turnovers changes the feel of the team in a good way, but our O will hold us back unless we change our OC.

How would a new OC fix a bad oline?

There is irony there….the OL doesn’t perform well and it would be just to be critical of O line coach….yet it is because of that coach we have the caliber of QB we have.

Rutgers run defense is terrible. Wisconsin has now taken two teams to the woodshed we struggled with.

We really didn’t struggle that much with Purdue. We dominated the game by every metric. Couldn’t finish drives in the 1st half, special teams, and we did in the second.

Might sound overly negative but looking at projected point spreads this is accurate. I guess I'll be pleasantly surprised if we win more than one or two remaining games.

We were down 3-0 midway through the third. If we weren't playing the worst team in the conference not sure we win.
