Yeah, I rewatched it again last night and that game should have never been as close as it was. I'll give their defense credit for making our offense sputter for 2 quarters or so but the two TD drives they had were more on us than anything. Both drives were built on big plays from missed tackles and you just don't see that from us very often. The first TD was a freakin miracle. Incredible catch but that QB made a throw he couldn't do again in 100 tries. Watching it again it reminded me a little of UC in 2002. We just kept screwing around with them, they were fired up and they hit a stretch where anything the QB threw was going to be caught. I'm confident calling it luck because he couldn't do it before those 2 drives and he damn sure couldn't do it afterward. He missed a lot of open throws later in the game because his bad technique caught up with him. Anyway, I look for the badgers to fight hard early being at home but they'll wear down just like they did against us. They are decimated with injuries and just used up a whole heap of luck last Saturday. tsun obviously needs to be concerned with the physical nature of Wisky and hope Henne and Hart come out no worse for wear than they went in to the game. Thats the part I'm saying good luck on, I don't see how they do it.

They don't need Hill, Lance Smith is a darn good back!

My usual 5K on scUM, though I don't know why, they are as good at covering the spread as Thump is at pretending to be hetrosexual, but hey, if I spend 5K to watch them lose that will be awesome.

Intersting game here. Wiscy trying to salvage a once promising season and scUM trying to keep the momentum going into THE GAME. Wiscy will be up for this game, and I keep waiting for ttun to stumble again (they've teased me so many times), but I think ttun pulls out a close one to keep the train rolling until next week when they run into the side of a mountain.

If Wiscy plays with the same intensity and attitude for the whole game as they did for the first 2 1/2 quarters against us, I think they have a good shot at beating Michigan at home...

Question:
If tOSU ends up undefeated and plays for the title in New Orleans, is there ANY chance a Big 10 team OTHER than scUM plays in Pasadena?

If OSU beats UM, the rose bowl is very unlikely to select Michigan. Considering UM can lose tomorrow and still win the big ten, I'd say that eliminates any realistic chance of another b10 team (besides UM-OSU) making the rose bowl.
Not sure that Pasadena wants another underperforming UM squad, let alone one that would be matched up with a team that destroyed them at home.

The Buckeyes were +28 against the Badgers in just over a quarter after Jason Chapman got injured. In other words, they were a completely different team. Losing Cooper before the season, and then Chapman; two starters, did not help an already paper thin unit from lackadaisical recruiting spanning '05-'07. That was the one area the Badgers absolutely couldn't afford decimation. They were playing a ridiculously short 5-man rotation. Now they only have 4 established D-Linemen. Doesn't bode well against Michigan's tough offensive line and running back. They're going to have to rely on the Badger offense lighting up the scoreboard and feed off the crowd. I'm not optimistic unless scUM rests key starters. Even still.......
