If we walk away with no points...we are in serious trouble...I don't care if they get a touchdown...this kind of coaching is going to cost us games...
I'm glad I don't have to make the decisions. I'd have probably gone for three also. Glad we didn't of course!
Great play calling until we got to the first and goal. We had them on the ropes ... but
No way you kick a fg from the 6 inch line. The numbers tell you to go for it. Especially with the new rule you can push the qb

Maybe so, getting within 1 score is valuable though. Glad they converted. Eventually he's going to need a FG from his kicker, I hope the kid is ready as he's getting no looks in games
If we can go into the half 10 7 , we have a goo d shot. MSU will get weary before we do. It is hard to win on the road even at Dyche Stadium.
I agreed with the call. You should always be able to sneak it in from that distance with the new rule. And Jackson’s push was mostly a whiff. What worked was one of our OL (couldn’t tell which) grabbing CT and pulling him into the end zone.
Why time out here? Our D has them in a hole, with limited time. So we give them a chance to regroup?
OK, I'm wrong and Fitz is right. I will remember that the rest of the game.
We could get a lead with this much time.
Has nothing to do with this game, but I just wanted to agree. I also hate that they are making me root for Ohio State. I feel so...dirty.
If that's the case, I believe that should have been called a penalty. Luckily it was not.
So nice to have a reliable kicker again. Given how slow we started, very happy to be tied at the half.
I agree. That kick, to tie the game, just seems to me to be a good confidence builder, early in a career.
Did they really say if Wisconsin runs the table, including the BT championship they still may not make the playoff? That's just nonsense
I thought this game would come down to Thorson vs. Lewerke and so far it's been a good match up between the two. I didn't think lewerke had this kind of play in him. Best game I have seen him play. I think our defense starts to impose it's will in the second half. Williams coming in for Mayo may end up being a critical adjustment.
