Wisconsin to play Alabama is 2015
I guess the Alvarez/Beilema annual tour of Baby Seal U's is taking a detour. Good to see.
It's like when Wisconsin pays UTEP to come and play them out-of-conference, only this time they're the baby seal...
"that's why you don't go to Ohio State, Lawrence"
They'd probably have a chance had Beilema stayed and kept the machine humming. Now I'm predicting more embarrasment for the B1G.
a 1% chance is still a chance.
I love Greg Mattison
He had been able to attract a senior QB developed by another program. It has been a while since WI took a HS kid and turned him into a decent college QB. But 'Bama will have a new QB that year, I think, so maybe it won't be a slaughter if they are fairly one-dimensional.

Would have been 10x more interesting if it was a Wisconsin vs Arkansas deathmatch.
And then have Michigan vs San Diego State in a basketball deathmatch of awkwardness.
Good Luck... (albanian accent from Taken)

The thread title should read "Wisconsin to be embarrassed by Alabama in 2015"

Yeah have fun with that bros.
This is the biggest scheduling 180 imaginable for these guys. Replacing nowhere state with Alabama
Call Mr. Plow, that's my name, that name again is Mr. Plow
Don't worry, Wisconsin will luck their way into a decent game because Alabama will get the flu or something, just like they lucked their way to this year's Rose Bowl and lucked their way through getting Russell WIlson.
Fuck Wisconsin. .....oh this isnt basketball?
not so sure they're still going to be able to pound the ball the same way in 2-3 years. Plus, I'm not sure Wisconsin would stand a chance now when they're basically at about the highest point the programs ever been. Probably not going to end well unless Alabama gets hammered with sanctions immediately
By then the devil will have called Saban back to his lair, so Wisc might have a chance
This is a good thing for the Big Ten. Although, like most of you, I think Wisco will get Rick Rolled in this game, it will help recruiting for a couple years since it's a pretty sweet opportunity, and Wisconsin will be better for scheduling this.
It is the offseason, every thread is OT regardless of it being posted.
ONTOPIC
- Anything Michigan sports related
- Anything related to other Big Ten teams or upcoming opponents
- Stuff about the blog itself
- University of Michigan topics that don't relate to sports
If my grammar upsets you, then I'm not going to change it.
If you don't like Michigan you are a peasant
What's the source? The Onion? As far as I know Barry is still AD so this can't be true.
Gonna love to see them get their shit wrecked. I wore my Michigan jersey the day of the Alabama game and every bro in Madison wanted to make sure I knew we were gonna get stomped.
It ain't easy being cheesy
Of course we all know how this turns out: Wisconsin loses but plays Bama pretty damn close, further embarrassing the boys in blue and their fans. Have we learned nothing from the last decade?

Spread team, not the same.
"All I've had today is, like, six gummy bears and some scotch"
The only team to beat them last year?

Notre Dame's offense was missing a Heisman-winning quarterback, and they didn't have the fortune of playing Bama the week after a draining game in Death Valley. Notre Dame didn't exactly light up the scoreboard last year, either.
"All I've had today is, like, six gummy bears and some scotch"
And scheduling luck to beat Bama that makes the case for the Badgers to beat them or keep it close BETTER?
(Definitely not going to get that scheduling advantage....Heisman LOLOL)

To confirm, you're saying that in 2015 Wisconsin will lose to Alabama, but not by a lot, and this will be a great source of embarrassment to Michigan because Alabama beat Michigan in 2012 in the midst of a dominating national championship by 2012 Alabama?
People still constantly bring up App State '07 and Toldeo '08, so yeah, that is what I'm saying
"All I've had today is, like, six gummy bears and some scotch"
You're comparing apples and oranges. No, actually, you're comparing apples and car washes. Or 3-bedroom condos.
No, not really. It all lumps into the same "LOLZ look at scUM they suck" category that we've been dealing with for the last half-decade plus. In addition to the two games I mentioned above, we have any single thing that happened during the Rich Rod era, the Clowney decapitation, getting boat-raced by Bama in a nationally televised game, etc. It doesn't matter if Bama was/is one of the most dominant teams in decades, or the Clowney hit was the only decent play he made all day, it all turns into ammo that gets used against us. I absolutely guaran-damn-tee you that if Wiscy pulls the upset or makes it real close, one of the first things we hear from Badger fans, or B1G fans in general, is "Hey remember when Michigan played Bama, HALOL" That's the point I'm making.
"All I've had today is, like, six gummy bears and some scotch"
How, if the programs are anywhere near the same programs by that date, how you think because Wisonsin runs MANBALL they'll keep it within 100.
And if Saban is long gone by then then only an idiot would get trolled by that.
But it begs the real question- why do you care so much what they say...?

That is the complete opposite of an entertaining football match-up.
or uh, Duder, or El Duderino if you're not into the whole brevity thing.

I will fight 'til I am dead, a winged helmet on my head.
Wisconsin playing a relevant (much less top 5 team) in non-conference play? Does not compute.
What's next? SEC teams not oversigning? Mark Dantonio disciplining his criminal players? Buckeye fans NOT sucking?
Go Blue! Always!
HAHAHAHAHAHA. TROLOLOLOL Wisconsin!
So, will it be a fiercely-contested game between two top ten teams, or will Bama be on probation and Wiscy have gone down a couple of notches by then? The best of both worlds would be a strong Wiscy team against a Bama team on probation with a new coach and limited schollies.
Why would you think an SEC team would ever get probation?
"All I've had today is, like, six gummy bears and some scotch"
Alabama has been on probation 3 different times in the past decade. They were on probation when they won the national title in 2009.
Go Blue! Always!
