UW needs some skill on the outsides on both O and D. It's a huge weakness right now, but supposedly help is coming.

Clearly the trophy wasn't made out of Duke's as it takes a lot of cold air exposure to create that kind of separation with that Mayo.

WF QB is the UW MVP.
I just came here to post almost exactly these thoughts.  I didn't watch (at work) but just checked the box score and saw the WF outgained UW by nearly double (518-266) but lost the turnover battle 4-1.  Also, UW's one turnover was a pretty harmless INT thrown right before the half from about midfield and intercepted on the WF 19.  Thus, Wake simply ran one play and went to the locker-room all tied up.  Wake also had two more quasi-turnovers, a blocked punt and losing the ball on downs after getting stuffed near midfield on a 4th and 1. 

I thought this comparison was interesting:
Wake Forest's scoring drives:
  • 65 yards (off opening kick)
  • 71 yards (off a UW punt)
  • 50 yards (off a UW punt)
  • 59 yards (off a UW punt)


Wisconsin's scoring drives:
  • 75 yards (off a WF punt)
  • 9 yards (off a blocked punt)
  • 33 yards (after a 59 yard KO return)
  • 32 yards (off an INT)
  • 2 yards (off an INT)
  • 3 yards (off an INT)

So Wisconsin scored 21 points on drives that started INSIDE the WF 10 yard line and another 14 on drives that started almost in the red zone.  That is just crazy and lucky for Wisconsin because they didn't do much on drives that started in the normal range of field position.  Wisconsin also had a missed FG after getting the ball on the 26 and losing four yards on three plays before missing a 48 yarder.

It’s really hard to outgain a team by that much and lose.  That is nuts.  Makes for an interesting question.

What’s the most your favorite team ever outgained an opponent and lost.  Conversely, what is the most they have ever been outgained and won?  Obviously, it will be hard to know the real answer to that but a couple of games jump to mind for me.  In 2007, WVU outgained USF 437-274 and lost.  6 Turnovers.  No suprise.

In 09, UConn outgained WVU 501-387 and lost.  There may be more extreme cases but I remember that one.  Going to be hard to beat that Wisconsin box score though.

that's an interesting box score. i didn't get to watch either, so this might not be the case, but a lot of times you see those lopsided  yards in opposite blowouts doesn't really mean the game would or should have been much closer. just because you didn't have to drive the field and build up yards doesn't mean you couldn't/wouldn't have.

having said that, uw's other drives in the box score don't exactly give a lot of confidence either.

congrats, badgers. next time don't break the mayo jar.
