Wisconsin football 2026

Not much to complain about from this game.  Was a nice dominating win from start to end.  Defense got caught a few times in man coverage and got beat.

Still haven’t seen Jaylen Williams play yet.  Not sure why he isn’t seeing the field same with Jayden Loftin.

CJ was banged up after the ND game, couldn't go in practice on Tuesday, didn't do much of any downfield throwing during the week.  They deliberately limited his carries.

Have a feeling that once Mandell is ready to go we'll see a change at LT.

If Fick is still here next year it might be the smallest home open crowd in 50 years.

They've lost quite a bit of their season tix base. It's been over 30 years since they've really had to hustle to any great extent to market themselves to the general public & it shows. Eichorst hasn't been there long enough to get TOO much blame at this point but the next 9-12 months will be interesting.

It will tough selling crap sundaes without changing the label.

I've been a season ticket holder for 15ish years before last year being my first year without.   Tickets in the same section and ballpark row were going for 10$ after fees on Saturday.   If I kept my tickets it would average to roughly $120/ticket per game.   I was fine paying extra when the team was good and even when they fell to just ok the last PC years since it helped the team.   But once it got this extreme of a crap product and that you can go to every game for less than $30 then what is the point, the gap is just too wide.   Even OSU last year was basically a giveaway

FWIW, Minnesota only drew 48,048 for their game against Mississippi State.  Capacity is over 50K, so they had over 2,000 empty seats.  Looked like more than that.
