Michigan’s football team has been taking a lot of flak over the Army game.  I would imagine they’re motivated and eager to get back on the field.
38-13  so is UW

I dug quite a bit, trying to find anyone from UW talking. I can't find anything after Chris Orr's tweet about "bring that silly talk to Madison" in response to another Michigan school's comments.

There's been a lot of Easterly winds coming off The Lake the past few weeks. Probably a coincidence.

On a more serious note, why say anything at all? Saying you want to "make a statement" is silly. Of course the kid's not going to say anything like "we're headed to Madison so we can shit the bed" or some such. So just STFU and play football.

Get off my lawn.
What's been said may not actually register as having said anything at all. And if it does register as something, it may correlate more with Michigan's extra media attention (more loaded questions asked and narrative pieces published) than what I think you're getting at, which is some sort of egoic cultural difference.

Um no who would be asking loaded questions?One would think they'd be prodding UW about last year.Mostly just player hubris.I agree with 847 why say anything at all - Revenge Tour.It's just a monkey on the tyeams back.I remember Boston and other players during the Cooper years.And the hick himself said tOSU would kick FSU's ass.Of course the opposite happened,then he got fired so it wasn't all bad

You're overstating. What's the hubris again? "Wanting" to have a good game? Calling that hubris is pretty dramatic.

So far this drama is fiction. I can say that because (so far) the M camp hasn't uttered a single pro-Michigan prediction or a said single unflattering (anti-Wisconsin) thing.

Now maybe the UW can spin all of this "nothing" into "disrespect." Clearly some of their fans are. And maybe that's a good coaching tactic. But if the topic is whether the disrespect is real, we are still waiting on the first unit of evidence.

everything that's been published is weak at best

nothing to put on the board in the opponent's locker room

why not go out and be brash and actually say something!?!?

say something to motivate your team!

the cheese eaters from Madison are just looking for a chip to put on their shoulder - not much there

I highly doubt there is a bulletin board in Madison. It's not how they roll, starting at the top. 

Just play football, is how they roll.

Wasn't there some lukewarm bulletin board material for the CMU game as well?

Yeah, that's why I mentioned that there has been an Easterly breeze off The Lake for the past few weeks. It was definitely a stronger breeze two weeks ago though.

Go back and read 847s take(that I agree with),what the hell do you think he was hinting at about a "statement".Not dramatic at all simply accurate,no tea leaves to read or between any lines to peak

Patterson didn't say he *will* make a statement (a brash guarantee of success). He said he *wants* to (a dream we expect for every player).

Turning a subdued "want" into bulletin board material is just manufacturing drama out of thin air.

Just stop!You're talking down the statement in case they get throttled.Embrace the Froth instead of waivering in its face.Shea is brash and confident you should follow suit.Hell if he's healthy it's bombs away

Here ya go scroll down even he stopped himself before stating.....well you know
