Allow me to disagree, and let me make the exhaustive case.
...
That pass game sucked. It's around No. 100 in efficiency. Hornibrook regressed. None of the receivers have done a damn thing, and that line, that damn line, has let QBs get hit again and again. UW fell from an average pass pro team to No. 91, and some of the biggest mistakes came when someone tried to make a play under presser.
Pre-injury, Hornibrook was Hornibrook. The guy makes bad decisions (15 INTs last year, 11 this year, but 3 of those in the Minnesota game), but also looks great at times, particularly at key moments in close games (against Iowa, for instance). The bigger issue you identified in another post--the offensive line wasn't as good as advertised. They blocked for the run pretty well, but the pass protection was woeful pretty often, which makes any quarterback look bad, and makes the offense one dimensional, which makes defending it a lot easier.
The ending with Minnesota put Hornibrook's decision making front and center again, but I tend to agree with many who wonder why it wasn't Coan after Hornibrook's head injury had sidelined him so much. I'm normally the first to defend the coaches' personnel decisions, so on this one, I have to think that Chryst was confident Hornibrook was looking better. He didn't play it, and it doesn't take many bad decisions from the QB to really tank a game.
And while we're talking turnovers, Taylor has improved, but lost two key fumbles against Northwestern. Curiously, the only loss in which the Badgers didn't turn the ball over at least twice was BYU (though missing field goals is a lot like turnovers--or shanked punts). The Badgers were tied for 86th in turnover margin. Ouch. Only Minnesota, Illinois, and Rutgers were worse in the Big Ten. (Last year the Badgers were 30th.)
