Badgers vs Nebraska

[PinaMadness]

They run that fb dive too much for it to be much of a trick. Would have preferred Allen getting the ball.

Exactly. Anybody who watches film on these guys knows that's coming. Too easy for the defense.

[PinaMadness]

How are these Nebraska receivers getting so wide open? This is pretty embarrassing for this defense.

[DuWayne Steurer]

I knew this game would be tough, I just didn't expect the defense to play so poorly tonight. Disappointing.

I am not sure what is going on,tough to watch after the run the D has been on but they did melt down late in some if the early games. Maybe the point about weak offenses is legit.

Nebraska TE #11 has been running free in the secondary. Not the only receiver, either. After the clinic Ohio State put on against Michigan State’s pass defense, today’s secondary’s performance doesn’t bode well for a potential conference championship game matchup.

Allen is rapidly ascending the pantheon of Badger running backs

[DuWayne Steurer]

Time for the D to have a moment.

[homer]

Braelon Allen is good

[igor67]

I am concerned we may be headed to OT

[igor67]

Yes!

[PinaMadness]

Got the stop when it mattered most, but I believe the holding call stalled that drive more than anything the defense did. Hopefully this was just an off night for them.

[AKCheesehead]

Wow that could have easily been called PI and then who knows. Glad they managed to win today.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Nice win.

There is absolutely no doubt that last pass was a defensive PI. The Badgers got the biggest gift in the Big 10 this year. They should be playing in OT.

The hold occurred because the guy was completely beat. If he doesn't hold that's a sack.

Makes up for the garbage PI call four plays before that. The ball landed 5 yards out of bounds.

 

Also, zero guarantee that Nebraska scores with one more play from the three.

The Badgers will absolutely get slaughtered in the BIG 10 championship game. The Buckeyes will beat them by 40 points.

thanks

[AKCheesehead]

Yeah, maybe. But you never know.

[endaround]

Nebraska put themselves into desperation mode wasting so much time under 2 min. I get not wanting to leave time on the clock for a winning drive but WI does not have a quick strike offense. 30 seconds and 5 seconds are nearly identical.

Possibly. Ohio State only beat Nebraska by 9.

[igor67]

I could see the Ohio State game being similar. Having to score a bunch, but mix a couple of turn overs in with 1 or 2 other defensive stops and maybe it's enough

[Jimbo]

Anyone notice on the opening kickoff the screen graphic had "KR 6 Chez Mellusi" as Bracey scoops the ball and returns for the distance?

 

Was that final play a super duper obvious penalty? Otherwise, you don't flag it in that situation. And like Peavy said, cancels the soft call earlier.

 

Curious, anyone know what tickets were going for on StubHub this morning? I forgot to check. I've been getting e-mails (from UW AD) to buy tickets. Hunting and all going on. Last week's game had 20K unscanned tickets.

Should be a great pay day for you knowing the margin of victory and all.

[JohnBriggs12]

I would argue Nebraska is the most talented team they've played in the west.

 

They're the most talented team period they've played offensively. Only Michigan is close. Martinez can be an erratic passer but he'll make an NFL roster. He's a terrific athlete. When faced with Wisconsin's pass rush, he simply backpedaled and was able to get enough on the ball to get it to his tight ends running free. Nobody Wisconsin's played has been able to do that.
