CB depth takes a hit.

Carriere-Williams Leaves the Program

Don't like those kind of transfers.   The NCAA should limit the ability to do that to prior to the start of Summer camp.

The kid came in is #1 and left at #4 on the depth. There were some cryptic tweets and comments in past couple of weeks that make this news not too surprising.


I hope it doesn't affect UW's relationships at St. Thomas Aquinas. It shouldn't but you never know.

ILB Arrington Farrar has left the team but will stay in school to concentrate on getting his degree. It's too bad really, because I always thought he had promise but just couldn't find a place to stick. He left as a member of the 3rd team ILB group, so I get it.

[Brutus Buckeye]

Only one more tune up, before the quintessential nonCon game.

I'd like to think BYU is better than last year, but beating Arizona only means they beat Kevin Sumlin...

I'm not starting a thread for New Mexico at Wisconsin. No need.


UW released its injury report and DE Loudermilk and TE Neuville have been cleared to play. I'd like to see QB Jack Coan play a lot this week, and Hornibrook a lot less.

Was not impressed by Friday night's win. Could be Chryst didn't want to show anything and was content to control the game, which was nearly a foregone conclusion. Still, I thought the play was merely average all the way around.

Then I saw the scores from other games around the conference and I was happy to have a convincing win.

Hope to see improvement next week, even against New Mexico.

Me neither. Vanilla at best.

Safety Patrick Johnson has left the team for personal reasons not disclosed. He was supposed to be the #3 safety this season, but sat out last weekend due to a concussion. The hits just keep coming for this team.

I would not have scheduled that offense without a fight. Not a fun one to face.

I don't understand what you're post is referenced to.

[bayareabadger]

New Mexico runs, or at least used to run, a triple option that often plays three backs behind the QB. It’s as exotic an offense as there is.

Not that it’s great, but it’s a pain to prep for. Two years ago went for 350 rushing yards a game. Even last year, when bad, they hit 5.2 per carry.

Bob Davie and former Arizona co-offensive coordinator Calvin Magee?

What do they know about offense?

I wouldn't worry with the Badger defense
