Ouch. I'll try hard not to root against ttun.
Congrats to Wisconsin, great win. Great season. Lots of young talent coming back next season.
I don't usually root for Harbaugh, but when I do it's because I picked them to cover and could win some cash

apparently Miami has turned Richt into a thug.... which is an impressive feat.  

I despise the 'canes, and their pretense they 'belong', and it was a beautiful thing to see them beat down at home- and by a team i like and respect just made it that much better.

7-0 B1G!

Michigan will screw it up but 7-1 is still really good!
Hurst is playing and Peters is starting QB. If they lose to a mediocre Scar team that just fired its OC, will be a bit of an embarrassment IMO.
I think Peters has a nice game and Michigan wins. He needs to if he wants to hold onto that QB job going into 2018 bc Patterson is coming in hot to take that job.

should have been tossed
and probably will be next time, I can only assume he wasn't tossed because he has been a class guy in the past
well that and the backlash from tossing the Kentucky RB

Hate to think about next year already, but the B1G could be scary good.

Wisconsin keeps its large contingent together. Ohio State will reload like always. Sparty has a number of returners. Michigan's defense stays largely intact and they should have competent QB play for the first time the last couple seasons. I think Penn State loses quite a bit, but there shouldn't be a huge drop-off. They are built to last now. And I think it will be one of those years Iowa makes a run for it as well. On PAPER 5-6 potential Top 20 teams. 

The Badgers desperately need Iowa and Michigan to be Top 15-20 opponents or they will face a louder contingent again next year on their schedule. 3 non conference games in Camp Randall against 2 cupcakes, and 1 pushover.

From Land of 10:

Wisconsin beat Miami 34-24 in the 2017 Orange Bowl on Saturday, and forced 3 turnovers in the process. The Miami Hurricanes, proprietors of the turnover chain, forced 1. In a 10-point game where the winner outgained the loser by 23 yards, turnovers proved to be the biggest difference.

What does Wisconsin coach Paul Chryst think about that?

Well, here’s what ESPN’s cameras caught him saying on the field after his Badgers won (847's EDIT - there was about a minute left - right after UW made a pick to end the game).




https://twitter.com/cjzero/status/947328871887761408/photo/1



To be sure, we don’t know 100 percent for sure what Chryst is saying there. His hand covers his mouth at just the right time after “turnover chain, my fu-.”


But there’s really not much else he could have been saying.


This is fine. Chryst’s team just won a big bowl game, and it’s fun to celebrate. If anything, this is funny because Chryst is almost comically reserved in his dealings with the media

Wowzers, PC. And he covered his mouth.. Hehe.

And even with all of that, they have a better resume this season than Alabama does by every rating service worth its salt.

Not much they can do about the helmet thing though.

hopefully, Frosty can turn the Huskers around quickly.  Maybe not top 15, but top 25 would be nice.

I finally figured out what Richt was so pissed about:

In all honesty, the officials (SEC) were horrible last night for both teams.
