-OSU looked hesitant to pass on the first drive. Barret is a brute in short yardage.
-WISC opened up with a rollout to get the QB away from pressure. The boot allowed the WR to get separation. I think Joe Mo will move the pocket too in situations.
-Bosa Jr will be a match up nightmare.
 
There should be a rule /law that a self- absorbed ex-athlete shouldn't be allowed to do "color commentary " for any game involving their alma mater.

Herbie, is thus far, defining "insufferable"

-Barrett does not look comfortable at all in the pass game right now.
-Badge defense is selling out on all run actions right now. But can Barret pass down field?
—This does not look like a dominant offensive line for OSU.

-OSU is really being swarmed. They don't don't look to be physically dominant at the moment. MICH looks like a much better team compared to OSU at least early in this one.
 
What RB was PSU chasing instead of Clement? I know they offered him but didn't seem to push it. Clement went to Glassboro, NJ H.S.

Yeah, I'm picking up the same vibe. I feel like I'm listening to an OSU recruiting pitch. Not professional.

Wisconsin redshirt Freshman QB Hornibrook (Malvern Prep, PA) is impressive! Imagine going from a small private HS crowd to the raucous atmosphere @ Camp Randall or other big time venues. Takes a calm mentality.

Held them to a field goal. Ohio State has nothing down the field, this looks like Braxton Miller redux right now.
 
This looks to be shaping up as a great game. I'd like to see wisky really press OSU to the end.

I don't see our defense holding up very well against Barrett

Very physical game thus far.

To stop OSU, you have to contain Barrett, who is tough to bring down. Notice OSU now giving Badgers heavy dose of QB runs. Don't believe we'll be able to contain him like Wiscy unless we totally commit to stopping Barrett with a constant spy, like Bowen or Farmer.

Farmer...I hate to post this, but that is what J&J would do.....and is what is required.

- Either WISC has one of the best defenses in the land or OSU is living entirely off of their rep after beating Oklahoma. It looks like to me - and it is early - but that OSU was a lot better last year.

Not a good plan....no way OSU loses two in a row in conference. If they lose tonight then we're in worse shape than we were before.

I'm not basing anything about our game on anything about this game.

For the 1,000th time, comparative scores mean dick.
 
What Hill of tO$U just got called for there is IDENTICAL to what #9 for UMd did not get called for against Golden on UMd's 1st TD - absolutely identical, out in the open field which sprung the runner the same way, etc..., but it drew no flag in the UMd-PSU game when far more ticky-tack, less obvious calls were made against PSU that repeatedly wiped out huge plays, killed drives and took points off the board....go figure!!

Not talking about comparative scores...I'm talking about an Urban Meyer coached team isn't going g to lose two games in a row. Has one of his teams ever lost two in a row? So if they lose this one, they aren't losing next week.
 
Wisconsin has one of the worst offenses in the b1g - the notion that tO$U is as remotely good as their stats suggest is laughable. tO$U's statistics, just like anyone else at this point of the season, is as much a product of their schedule as anything else. tO$U played 4 of their first 5 games @home with their only road game being against 4-2 OU who has given up 198 points (i.e., 33 ppg) in their first 6 games??? But from what we've seen so far, tO$U is clearly very over-rated, especially defensively, in their first really difficult "road-test" of the year.
 
The "Delaney Fix" is in. I love how the "announcer" calls out the hold, Herbie goes "silent" and "Dave" the special B1G observer agrees that it was a hold.

You can't make this stuff up...

OSU's receivers haven't been too impressive this game...they don't catch very well.
