Wisconsin at USC, Saturday 9/28/24; 2:30pm Central

[LouisEly]

Will two weeks of prep as starter be enough to get Locke ready?

Michigan showed last week that a good QB isn't necessary if you can run the ball.  Bring back the barge?

(And Michigan isn't looking that good against Minnesota today.)

Nice to see a big play from the offense!

 

When they show close ups of the stands there are a lot of empty seats..

[wildcat83]

Pretty good quarter vs a ranked opponent on the road.  A few inaccurate throws have limited the offense, but that’s probably par for the course with a backup QB.  

[nate82]

That was fortunate especially after that poor play calling and bad passes.

[nate82]

I was told the Badgers were going to be blown out?  Where are those posters now?

[HarryDoyle]

It looks like USC is highly overrated.

Their oline looks awful.  Badgers dline is having their way with them.

[edfunderburk]

That was a great first half of football 💪

Here’s hoping we can finish the job in the 2nd half 

Go Badgers 🏈

[adambr2]

Had good control of this game and just gifted the Trojans 7 points to start the second half. 

[HarryDoyle]

Explain to me how that's not DPI.

Should have been OPI but a good no call.  

[homer]

what the hell kind of play call was that? stupid

[HarryDoyle]

Fickell has the stupidest 4th and short play calls I've ever seen.

[yourout]

Every time I see shotgun on 4th and a half a yard in my blood pressure goes up 20 points. Idiots.

I don't know how much he's involved in the actual play call. Longo is the goober.

Or Longo, whoever. The point stands.

Yeah, I caught myself. But Fickell needs to have a long talk with him about it or he's just as culpable.

[adambr2]

Just getting killed on 3rd and long.

[young guns]

Third down defense leaves a lot to be desired.

[LouisEly]

When the ball is put in the right spot and the receiver is 6'6", there is only so much the defender can do.  Two perfect passes to a lengthy weapon.

Really telegraphed the blitz. They really should have a defensive audible available when they can tell the offense knows it's coming.

[yourout]

Hospital ball.

[adambr2]

Well, it was a nice 1st half, but definitely feels like USC is going to pull away now. 

[yourout]

Longo needs to go.

You would have to have a defensive QB and there just isn’t a player on the team who is that.  No the coaches wouldn’t be able to audible either.
