A lot of you are going to be looking for a plunger job in this game, but I personally think this will be a good game.

I'm leaning towards plunger. TCU comes out emotional and makes a game of it for 20 or 30 minutes, but I think Wisconsin's big uglies wear 'em down and pour it on in the second half.

I hate the Badgers, but have to tip my cap to them. They have athletes all over the field. They beat us fair and square at their place, and it wasn't a fluke.

If Brent Bulimia doesn't fuck it up coaching-wise, Wisconsin should ape-fuck those clowns. I'd love for Wiscy to do what they did to Michigan in the second half of their game, running the ball all but one play for the entire half.

Yep.

I saw a chat with a Vegas line maker a couple of weeks ago saying he would make TCU a slight favorite if it was officially a game. Some of the comments to the chat were immediately talking about how much you have to respect TCU and how weak Wisconsin's schedule was. I am not joking.

I do think TCU is a much better match up vs Wisky than Boise would have been. That said I think Wisconsin wins this game and Vegas is setting the public up.

It should also be noted, Wisconsin is the one of just two teams in the Big Ten that has been able to be counted on to take care of business when they get on the big stage.

Big Ten record in Rose Bowl Games by team since 1990:

Wisconsin: 3-0
Ohio State: 2-0

Penn State: 1-1
Michigan: 2-5
Northwestern: 0-1
Purdue: 0-1
Illinois: 0-1
Iowa: 0-1
Big Ten record in BCS Games by team since 1998:

Wisconsin: 2-0
Ohio State: 5-3

Penn State: 1-1
Iowa: 1-1
Michigan: 1-3
Purdue: 0-1
Illinois:0-2

They may not get there very often, but when they do they finish the deal. I'll be shocked if they don't win this game comfortably.
