Nebraska AD is at least happy that the schedule got a little easier.  :72:

Coach might be.  

AD was looking forward to making a few bucks with a home game

Are parents of the Nebraska players going to sue the UW football team?

They might.  Nothing teaches personal responsibility like calling your parents to come sue

Why isn't NDSU on a retainer to fill in?

Yeah I'm still annoyed that they blew up a perfectly serviceable plan in favor of this wing and a prayer, but I suppose we can take what we can get.  In any event no one was going to watch Wisconsin anyway since they were up against game of the week Indiana-Rutgers.

IU-RU is a battle for #1 in the B1G East!!

King Barry is really pissed off right now. I don't think this commish is gonna last long. Behind the scenes he is telling people that this would have never happened under B1G Jim.

Will be interesting to see what happens next week as a Purdue fan, given Wisconsin is on the schedule for us in week 3. 

If that game also gets cancelled, it basically erases a likely loss from a "full strength" Wisconsin team from our record, which is good.

If that game goes on, Wisconsin will be significantly short-staffed on the offensive end player-wise. Which means that a game that would be a likely loss against a full strength Wisconsin team becomes much more winnable than it would otherwise.

so, reported as 6 players and 6 coaches...

we will probably not get names, we know 2 QBs and a head coach

if the B1G had covid rules like the SEC..... and the Badgers were coming to Lincoln to play without those 6, ..... what do you think hurts the team more?

being w/o the 6 coaches, or the 6 players?

6 coaches is pretty major. Teams can only carry 10 coaches, right? You know the 6 include the HC, and if this started in the QB room, it's probably not unlikely to think that the QB coach and the OC are likely involved.

I'm guessing that you might have run out of people capable of any offensive playcalling... 

Even the 4th string QB can hand the ball off, and that's enough for Wisconsin to beat most teams.

If it blasted through the QB room, a running back would be playing QB for UW. At least he was a QB in HS...
