Wisconsin vs Notre Dame (at Soldier Field) Thread

[AKCheesehead]

I mean, isn't a predictable offense kind of a UW football tradition?

[adambr2]

Yes, just let it bounce rather than fair catching it so they can get another 20 yards of field position. Brilliant!

Leonhard must really love Wisconsin. Why hitch your wagon to this mess?

[adambr2]

It's honestly like watching a bad high school offense.

[adambr2]

Going to burn our timeouts just to burn as much time as physically possible because we are absolutely terrified of making any effort whatsoever into moving the ball down the field.

Become “head coach in waiting” if Chryst is removed?

Then let’s do that already.

Won't have to worry about being ranked the rest of the year.

Truth

 

[MrTPlush]

What are they even doing? PC constantly runs plays before half with zero expectations of making a drive with 2 minutes left. Why risk FUMBLING THE BALL.

 

Honestly I don’t get that, seems borderline idiotic.

For all the talk about how WI has been better at recruiting in recent years, the personnel they have on the field offensively either looks like the recruit rankings were garbage, or the badgers' program has really lost its ability to develop players....or most likely a combination of both.

Problem #1 is Rudolph being the OLine coach instead of Bostad. This program lives and dies with OLine play or lack there of.

I knew this one would be tough to watch, not surprised at all to see Coan outplaying Mertz. Hopefully they can turn it around.

[RobertR]

At this point, I'm really doubting our quarterback. I'd expect Fred Mertz to do better.

[nate82]

While the QB play has been bad the play calling has been worse. I thought PC was supposed to be good at offensive play calling? He looks like he is coaching a high school football team.

 

The guy just sucks and is incompetent at play calling.

[DuWayne Steurer]

calling this offense "bad" would be generous. this is simply hard to watch.

[nate82]

ND is running a basic man defense on the WR as they pose no threat. Why does PC continue to run the same plays?

 

He is just a horrible HC as he doesn't help his players out by calling plays to get them in a rhythm. He won't move players around he won't spread players around. He doesn't use motion and he won't deviate from what is not working. He is a horrible HC and needs to be fired.

 

Without an NFL ready RB PC is horrible and can't win and won't change his offense to suit the players he has.

Signs of life!

[PinaMadness]

Mertz's first touchdown pass in eight regular season games. Alright!!!

[nate82]

Who knew WI had more than 3 pass plays?

[yourout]

I wonder if they have a wildcat package with Berger and Chaze.

[nate82]

Would still like to see Ferguson line up in the slot or as the outside WR.

 

Not sure why they don't call some jump balls to him in the corner of the end zone.

[PinaMadness]

For as bad as the Badgers o-line has been, ND's is even worse, and by a significant amount.

[young guns]

This defense is legit man. If the offense ever figures it out we could be good, real good.

Unfortunately this isn’t the nfl where there is playoffs. Another loss and it’s almost like why even play the games?
