Title: #19 Wisconsin (1-0, 0-0) at Washington State (1-0, 0-0) Game Week
Post by: 847badgerfan on September 05, 2023, 08:00:08 AM
Washington State drilled Colorado State in Fort Collins, 50-24. Does CSU suck? Is WSU good?

WSU took down Wisconsin in Madison last year, the beginning of the end for Paul Chryst.

WSU is gonna have a huge chip on its shoulder, being one of only two PAC schools left behind in expansion. The hated Huskies are headed for the B1G, and little brother was not invited.

Little brother gonna give all it's got to upend the "B1G Bad Badgers".

This game scares me, because they have been there and done that.

I am surprised that this game is in Pullman. Until relatively recently, classes didn't start at WSU until the third Monday after Labor Day, and the Cougars played any non-con games of substance in Seattle.

Idk. Have to think Wisconsin will have bigger chip on their shoulder after losing at home last year. I think they enact punishment and pound WazzuSt on the ground. 

Wisconsin is favored by a TD. I think they cover that.

At the time this game was scheduled as a trade for a game in Madison (last year), UW insisted that the game be played on the WSU campus.

The game is a sellout and will be good for the local economy.

That part surprised me. 

The latter point isn't a surprise. Pullman, Washington isn't in the middle of nowhere, but you can see it from there.

It's going to be a smaller but very rough crowd for the Badgers.

Hearing that 5-7K UW fans will be in attendance. That might help a little.

Hope the local bars stocked up.

UW fans did a number on the bars when they played in Provo. They stocked up knowing what was coming and they still ran out.

Provo's definition of stocking up is going to Maverik and getting two more six packs of 3.2.

I think CSU sucks. But I don’t know if that’s some thing poor or not about WSU

I wouldn't be too worried about this one if I were a Badger fan. The Wisconsin running game appears unequaled, and this year they can pass too.
I was, however, surprised Buffalo tagged 17 points on the Wisconsin defense.

To be fair, the UW QB threw a pick that Buffalo took down to the 10 yard line or so. One play later they had 6 points.

So, I'm not sure they can pass.
