Northwestern stifling Wisconsin's offense, despite great field position practically the whole 2nd half for the Badgers.
Just further proof our program is so sad right now.
November 21st, 2020 at 6:53 PM ^
It tells me that at the very least Don Brown has his head stuck so far up his own ass and everyone Big team has figured his D out.
November 21st, 2020 at 6:38 PM ^
Why would you punt down 13 with just over 3 minutes left in the game. The only chance you have to win which is slim is to go for it on 4th and 17. Franklin is so f——— stupid.
November 21st, 2020 at 6:39 PM ^
Franklin is bad at game management/situation.
November 21st, 2020 at 6:45 PM ^
He's hoping for better field position to score and then get the onside kick. Fourth and 17 may be better odds than recovering an onside kick though.

Just hand osu the BIG... Why we had to go through this season to begin with.
November 21st, 2020 at 6:41 PM ^
Fitzgerald doesn't go for a fg from the 26 on 4th and 7 that wouldve put them up 13. Hopefully that doesn't come back and haunt him in this game.
November 21st, 2020 at 6:50 PM ^
Win or lose, that was dumb. His kicker is not an issue either, he just made one of those easily a few minutes earlier.
November 21st, 2020 at 6:48 PM ^
More than half of the season is over and Northwestern is undefeated and the favorite to win the big ten west, Indiana has one loss and it's by seven on the road to OSU
Penn State has 0 wins
And yet people think this doesn't qualify as a "weird year"
November 21st, 2020 at 6:59 PM ^
Exactly.
November 21st, 2020 at 7:01 PM ^
These are all great points, however not 1 single human being on the planet has said 2020 is not a weird year.
November 21st, 2020 at 7:08 PM ^
A "weird year" does not excuse Michigan from being an absolute train wreck.
People have got to stop making excuses for this program.
November 21st, 2020 at 6:49 PM ^
Iowa Fat Guy pick six TD against PSU. Turnover machine Clifford threw it right to him.
November 21st, 2020 at 6:56 PM ^
The real question is can this awful Michigan team beat that awful Penn State Team?
November 21st, 2020 at 6:57 PM ^
He'll have 0 turnovers against us. We'll make him look like Joe Montana, just like we did for Rocky Lombardi.
November 21st, 2020 at 6:58 PM ^
You know, players aren't really motivated during this season and the same might be said for coaches...
Congrats to Ferentz. In an age where people want to fire you for having a shitty season during a pandemic, this is good to see.
November 21st, 2020 at 6:59 PM ^
Note for next week. If you are on the D line against PSU, get your hands up in the air! How many deflected balls were there today?
November 21st, 2020 at 7:00 PM ^
Wisconsin looks like dog shit. They had it too easy, dominating two terrible teams.
Hat's off to Northwestern, they made Wisconsin struggle by playing smart, disciplined, organized defense.
November 21st, 2020 at 7:00 PM ^
Northwestern just punched their ticket to Indy - all they've got left is Moo, Minny and Lovie and they can lose one and still beat Wiscy due to COVID scratches.
November 21st, 2020 at 7:10 PM ^
Great to see it. They deserve it.
November 21st, 2020 at 7:01 PM ^
I got downvoted like crazy for saying Pat Fitzgerald would be my first choice for the M job, watching them beat Wisconsin I still don't get why he wouldn't be a good hire.
With the exception of last year he's got 12 years overperforming at a school that has similar recruiting difficulties to Michigan but worse.
I don't think he's leaving NW, but that's a guy you should offer, imo.
November 21st, 2020 at 7:11 PM ^
He's a perfect fit for them, and he should not leave there.
November 21st, 2020 at 7:35 PM ^
They're a perfect fit for him. He's never going to leave there for another coaching job.
November 21st, 2020 at 7:12 PM ^
I still can’t believe he’s in his 15th season there
November 21st, 2020 at 7:03 PM ^
Remember when everyone said M had the best QB room last year? Who would have guessed it was actually Indiana. ??♀️
November 21st, 2020 at 7:07 PM ^
Northwestern‘s defense plays with pride, passion, energy, effort, and balls that Michigan could only dream about. They love to hit and don’t play like a bunch of fucking pussies
