I'm still in not looking at what I had last week mode, because it's too early in the season to care.

15) Wisconsin: looked mediocre in a game against Western Illinois. Sure, they won by 27; Illinois St. beat W. IL by 31 the week before.

I see that Illinois St also beat new MWC member NIU in week 2.  A sign I guess that ILL St is pribably a pretty good FCS team. 

But also a sign maybe that Iowa's big win over NIU in week 1 does not mean much.

The more Iowa fans laugh at Wisconsin football, the sooner Fickell gets fired. So yeah--laugh it up. :88:

Husker fans have been through some crap coaches.  They know it's NOT funny.

Kirk Ferentz can't coach forever - yuck it up while ya can

Its hard to laugh at other teams when Iowa can barely beat an Iowa St team that lost its entire roster.  But for your sake I will try

If it'll help, and Fickell is still there, y'all can certainly lose to Purdue if it'll get him canned.

@betarhoalphadelta Can we, though? That's definitely out of my hands, and may be out of the Badgers' hands (claws?), too.

As for Iowa squeaking by Iowa State, rivalry games are hard. A win is a win, and while I'm more than happy to mock Michigan fans for storming the field after losing to  *beating* Western Michigan, I won't be so foolish as to make fun of a rival for a win over one of their significant rivals, even those they are expected to beat. Well, I won't make fun of Iowa for that right now.
