You have to realize the last 2 seasons nobody has more starters injured/out than UW,save MSU.So the injury reports will garner no attention/sympathy
whether JH is sandbagging or not.Haven't been this pumped for a game in while
Not intended to milk for sympathy.  Well aware of the Badger's injury issues.  More for Michigan fans hoping for the return of several players.  Because they are sorely needed.

Same here. Not since the 2017 CCG for me, and that ended in a thud.

UW needs its complete OL for this one, so they can rotate to combat the relentless Michigan pass rush. It's crucial to me that Logan Bruss be available at RT for this one.

I don't see either team saving any special sauce for a later opponent.

For both teams, this game defines the season. There will be nothing left on the field.

disagree. huge game for both teams, but either team could still accomplish their goal of winning their division with a loss in this game.

Michigan has to beat PSU/MSU/OSU in order to win the East. Wisconsin just has to get past Iowa. Who else in the west is a serious challenger to them? The west is turrrrrrble. As usual.

Me: Spread the games out!  Put more good games at noon!  When every good game is at 8, you miss a ton of big ones!

Delany: UM-UW at noon...same time as your MSU-NW game

Me: :91:

Four days out the weather forecast for Madison on Saturday is 50% chance of showers and thunderstorms with a high near 78.

Lots of sources. This one came up first when I typed in "Don Brown Wisconsin".

Thanks. Now that I've seen it, I can say that when you said this:

He essentially said that playing UW would be a relief from MTSU and Army.
Your interpretation of the quote sensationalized it. He isn't making predictions about the game or saying UW's offense is less than the last two. In fact, he flattered UW about the challenge. He's just champing at the bit to use his base defense for the first time this season.

Are MSU and PSU really on the level of OSU? I think not.

UW will play the East's OSU, MSU and M, and all the games count the same in the record. The only one I can say is elite, with certainty, is OSU, and UW gets them on the road.

Challengers in the West include everyone but Illinois, I think.

Which is why I wrote this, before I wrote anything else:


"I know what he meant, but to someone who might not know, it would look different."

Something that surprised me about that series record is how consistent it is. For example, UW actually had a (slightly) better record in the first 26 games (starting in 1892, 7-18-1) than the last 26 games (starting 1983, 7-19). In between? The Bo-Woody decade is an obvious exception. But otherwise the W/L ratio is close to unchanged over broad stroke time frames.
