Hate to say it, but this is pretty impressive. Still a lot of football to be played though.
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:30 PM ^
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:43 PM ^
someone should have told that Wiscy lineman the reason he is playing upback in the punt formation is not to just look pretty while doing it...
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:30 PM ^
They're pushing around the toughest team after the CESU FJW's in every facet of the game right now
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:30 PM ^
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:31 PM ^
Unbelievible.
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:31 PM ^
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:32 PM ^
23 points-all off of offensive miscues
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:32 PM ^
Ridiculous they don't show the Ball hit - the kid jacked Montee's facemask but ESPN won't show it - a-holes...
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:39 PM ^
They put it up once, but not again. You have to wonder what else was going on in that pile.....
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:32 PM ^
Wow, one bad thing happens and Wisconsin falls apart.
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:34 PM ^
Lot of football to be played, let's hope they can fix themselves
Apparently Ball is good to go, that should get them rolling
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:33 PM ^
Holy crap that second quarter was horrific.
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:34 PM ^
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:34 PM ^
to Sparty
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:35 PM ^
dear wiscy,
please stop giving this fucking game away to sparty.
signed,
any sense of justice in the world
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:36 PM ^
Wisconsin sucks. Overrated year after year, crush UNLV, lose to TCU in the Rose Bowl. Typical horseshit 'power running, RAWR' Big Ten team
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:38 PM ^
If they had stuck with the "power running RAWR" on that 2 pt conversion they would've taken that Rose Bowl to OT
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:37 PM ^
Sparty celebrating prematurely on the way into the locker room. Monty Ball good to go for the second half. Don't change that channel.
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:38 PM ^
If Ball is good to go for the second half, why isn't he playing.
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:40 PM ^
Coachspeak.
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:37 PM ^
That little Sparty shitstorm was my fault. I turned the game on at 14-9, and by the time I found the remote again they were up 22-14 with the XP coming.
Sorry.
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:37 PM ^
trouble, or did Zook cough up another hairball?
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:40 PM ^
Zook was awful and didn't help his team. Purdue's offense is pretty gimmicky with a lot of different personnel packages, but it's mostly the base spread stuff. They're still not very good, but they've improved a bit since they were truly awful to start the year.
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:42 PM ^
I missed the first half, but Zook did punt from the Purdue 32 on 4th and 2 down 21 in the third. Also, they tried to spike the ball with under a second left from the Purdue ~30.
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:37 PM ^
Is this real life?
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:37 PM ^
Wisco probably hasn't had a worse quarter in five years, and they're still in the game.
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:38 PM ^
Wow. Just wow.
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:40 PM ^
Trent Richardson is a badass. Alabama has put 21 points on the board in the first 11 minutes of the second half after going into halftime tied 6-6.
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:44 PM ^
this year.
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:47 PM ^
Matthieu, RGIII, Boyd/Watkins?
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:49 PM ^
I wouldn't complain if he went pro this year and Michigan didn't have to see him next season. That game is shaping up to be terrible.
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:18 PM ^
I would encourage him to do so,
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:50 PM ^
If he stays, that game next year is a hell of a lot scarier against them, it'll be him plus that monster O-Line against Big Will and Washington
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:40 PM ^
I guess our game last week wasn't quite as bad as it could have been...
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:41 PM ^
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:41 PM ^
The second quarter was like the fucking twilight zone
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:41 PM ^
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:43 PM ^
I see what you did there . . .
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:44 PM ^
Though I gotta say I'm pretty shocked at how he and the rest of the team got so flustered
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:45 PM ^
Non T'eo linebackers for Notre Dame look sssslow.
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:48 PM ^
USC punts from the 30 yard line .... WTF
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:51 PM ^
Lane Kiffin is everything wrong with America, duh.
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:50 PM ^
Sparty fans are the definition of hyperbole.
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:50 PM ^
I'm still trying to figure otu why Wiscy stopped running behind the LT. I mean they were getting 5 yds a pop behind him and suddenly tried to get cute with it.
Sparty might be legit, but it is a combination of the powers taking a huge dive and the whole OSU tat problem.
This is kinda like they K-State run in the early 2000's, it might have legs for another 2 yrs but that is it.
When Dantonio cant get the big time michigan kids anymore, he will fall back to reality.
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:01 PM ^
I think it had to do with Ball being out.
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:50 PM ^
Check it
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:54 PM ^
Perhaps this is e year MSU finally makes it into a BCS bowl.
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:50 PM ^
1st half over and MSU has ZERO personal fouls and no flags what so ever. How are they dirty again?
October 22nd, 2011 at 9:53 PM ^
And it will take awhile for MSU to live down what they did last week.
