Wisconsin Football 2024

[wildcat83]

This team has shown flashes of improvement but just not winning any big games.  Tonight looked like a step backwards, PSU lost multiple key guys in the first half and still dominated the 2nd half.  I’m starting to think Fickell doesn’t survive through next year, which has a brutal schedule.  
 

schedule gets slightly easier in 26, and is set up nicely in 27.  Sad to realize the once perennial top 25 program is looking 3 years out to see a chance at a playoff spot realistically.

I actually don't think this game is going to be as close as predicted. 

Iowa by 10

I don’t care what anyone says Locke is not a smart QB.  He is Trubisky level bad at QB when it comes to seeing the field and thinking.  An absolute moron at QB.

[yourout]

A Tuddy here and the route will be on.

[yourout]

This is going to get ugly.

[nate82]

Can we just bench Locke already?  I don’t care that the backup may not be ready.  Getting annoyed by Locke not even improving at all.

I thought you were wrong on that, but unfortunately it appears you were correct.  Lots of time left but not looking good so far.

That seems wildly optimistic right now

[nate82]

This team can’t run the ball because the other teams defense knows Locke can’t beat them.  So just play the run and watch Locke mess up on pass plays.

[yourout]

Sad thing is we're years away from being able to compete at a high level. 

A poorly coached team that short on talent is not much fun to watch

[AKCheesehead]

Getting a score on this possession would be helpful.

But this team is not short on talent.  There is talent there it is just that in offense you have a horrible QB who can’t move and makes absolutely moronic decisions.  The last pass that was tipped it was lucky it got tipped because the DB was breaking on that ball for an INT.

Locke just stares down who he is going to throw to even if he has time.  They need to bench him and get the next QB ready for next year.  Locke is not a starting QB he just isn’t maybe at a lower level but not at this level.  He would be great at UW-Whitewater where he wouldn’t have to read defenses.

[nate82]

Here is another example why Locke is bad.  On the incompletion during the field goal drive that should have been a TD.  Instead of throwing it to the sideline Locke throw it more inside allowing the DB to get back into the play and getting there hand in to knock the ball away.  If he throws that more to the sideline and higher it is a TD or pass interference.  Instead he allowed the DB to get back in the play and cause an incompletion.  He has done this multiple times now and not just in the end zone.  He is not accurate and he still hasn’t figured out where to place balls for his WR’s.

The WR’s on this team are actually talented and good for a change but the Badgers still have an absolutely horrible QB who can’t make a good throw and can’t make a read to save his life.

[yourout]

Time for an X-Files rerun. 

Longo needs to go and honestly Tressel can go with him.

 

Not going to win another game this year.

[nate82]

The absolute worst QB in Badgers history Locke.

[Sixtolezcano]

This is not a good football team, and a disgrace to the Badger uniform. Makes you wonder how long a leash they will give Fickell after this season.

[HarryDoyle]

There are tons of unrealistic movies in cinematic history, but none more unrealistic than Draft Day, where the consensus #1 overall prospect is a Wisconsin Badger quarterback.

[edfunderburk]

This Badger team is unwatchable 

Play Mettauer just to see what’s there

We can’t win another game with Locke - he’s overmatched in the Big 10

Can't wait to see what weird generic brand name bowl we play in this year.

Hopefully none. It would be an embarrassment to the state of Wisconsin.

Wonder how many points we've given up on his interceptions?

[Sixtolezcano]

The vaunted Wisconsin defense will give up over 300 yards rushing, 400 total yards and over 40 points to IOWA???

Tressel sucks.

[yourout]

Embarrassing...

[yfinn6]

That was a horrendous performance. This team, and really program, has a lot of problems.
