TOB has to be on a short leash at this point.

Hard to believe that team on the field is one that was often picked to finish 2nd in the division.

9/12/2011 9:13:50 AM

It was the defense that lost us that game.

Also, keep in mind that we went 9-4 last season and had a bowl victory over WVU (best season we've had in how long?). ^that might be a little premature.

9/12/2011 9:35:09 AM

Debbie Yow is like an NFL owner. Short leashes everywhere.

HEY GUYS

WE WILL VICTOR THIS WEEK!

YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST BLACKJESUS PREDICTS A VICTORY!!!!

9/12/2011 9:45:39 AM

I'm seriously not trolling. If TOB has a bad year, he'll prove that he can't recruit. Maybe he's a good gameday coach, but his defense the whole time here has been suspect.

It's year 5 right. And a couple .500 seasons, a good year where RW and Irving were healthy all year is not that great. He's on the hook, good or bad for RW not there. They don't make a bowl this year, he'll probably keep his job for 1 more year, but will be under a microscope next year.

9/12/2011 9:47:32 AM

this year we will finish 7-5/8-4/9-3 before a bowl

next year we will finish 9-3/10-2/11-1 before a bowl

watch.

9/12/2011 9:51:48 AM

^ I hope so!

9/12/2011 9:53:09 AM

Also keep in mind we were missing 2(3?) of our starting D-Line, including our defensive captain, who should all be coming back soon. I'm just saying.

9/12/2011 9:53:41 AM

and an extra 50 yards on the ground with mustafa greene. ^

jr sweezy and mustafa green being out is like terrell manning and owen spencer being injured last year at the same time.

9/12/2011 10:53:32 AM

wisconsin will go to rose bowl with RW. they would have a natl championship with glennon.


wilson has something they already have plenty of: feet. glennon has something nobody in the country has besides stanford. a rifle cannon arm that's accurate as a sniper rifle.

"The fact that TOB didn't let RW finish his career here has set my expectations so low I just don't give a fuck this year. First time ever really, its sickening. And we sucked last night. Period. O-line is fucking terrible, but I don't know that we're worse than last year. Left side of the line looked especially bad."

9/12/2011 11:12:12 AM

^^^^ Good point. Because QB's with the skill-set of RW never win college football national championships.

NFL Pocket Passing QB's with rifles are where it is at in College Football. I mean think of all the big armed pocket passing QB's that have recently won National Championships....

you're right. only tim tebow and cam newton style qb's can ever win natl championships or superbowls.

recently, being your operative word.

let's not think back at all 100 years here. let's talk about the last 3 only

sarcasm always sounds awesome when you leave out 99% of some crazy huge stat. oops.

You could argue the better passing QB won last year and that's why Auburn beat Oregon....but this is a silly argument.

"last year we had RW"

State's loss on Saturday wasn't because of the QB (and lest you forget, a few of rw's plays lost us a couple games last year)

9/12/2011 11:50:35 AM

Jesus sports talk just gets harder and harder to even read each day that goes by.

Yes, you are exactly right. You have proven your point that despite 5 of the last 6 college football NC's being won by teams with either a duel threat QB, or using a combinations of QB's with a running component to their QB play, if we go back 100 years statistically speaking Glennon would lead Wisconsin to a NC and RW wouldn't. Let's ignore the fact that college football play at the QB position has drastically changed over the past 10 years, and lets factor in the era around the time that the forward pass was invented.

I also like how you randomly threw the Super Bowl in there too, which is 100% opposite of college football in terms of success of pocket passing qb's vs. duel threat style qb's. Well done sir.

9/12/2011 12:01:21 PM

Sorry that most of us are over the fact that Russell is gone

9/12/2011 12:03:41 PM

^You can be over the fact he is gone and still disagree with the decision. It's quite simple really. MG had a lot of passing yards on a few plays. Wake's defense IS NOT good. I am glad he played well but to be frank one game against WAKE isn't enough to say he'd win a national championship somewhere else. You people are freakin absurd.

true. but there's no point in bitching about it. it happened months ago. crying won't bring him back.

9/12/2011 12:22:22 PM

^^I could play QB for Wisconsin and they would make a bowl.

What's upsurd is bitching and moaning about something that's long been over....

[Edited on September 12, 2011 at 12:23 PM. Reason : They would even win with Harrison Beck]

[Edited on September 12, 2011 at 12:25 PM. Reason : RW is gone get over it]

9/12/2011 12:23:25 PM

I'm over it and don't give a shit. Glennon is fine and what happened with Wilson happened can't do anything about it now.

I just think making the statement that Glennon would lead UW to a NC and RW wouldn't is an absurd statement, and frankly pointless and out of place in the Wake thread. I wasn't in the mood to just let that one pass by without calling him out on such a pointless, and stupid thing to claim.

9/12/2011 2:01:27 PM

^no

9/12/2011 2:01:59 PM

Just watched the replay of the 2nd half (had to leave the house and didn't catch that part first time around) and thought Glennon looked pretty damn good.

Pass defense is pretty damn shaky, but Price is also one of the better QBs we'll face this year.

I'm not all gloom and doom now...but we definitely need to step it up in certain areas. We didn't play up to par on Saturday and we're a much better team than that.

9/12/2011 2:04:27 PM

^yeh man. 2nd half. we finish fine. we just need to START a game well.

[Edited on September 12, 2011 at 2:07 PM. Reason : x]

9/12/2011 2:05:44 PM

wisconsin could play their starting 5 on OL and 1 RB and win 6 games and go to a bowl.

9/12/2011 2:07:12 PM

jesus christ stop talking about Wisconsin in this thread you fucking idiot

9/12/2011 2:08:04 PM

you could punt the ball every first down every possession with no offense team at wisconsin and still get 6 wins

9/12/2011 2:11:17 PM

This is funny because last year everyone always talked down about how we'd start a game well and not be able to finish. This year it's shaping up to be the opposite. Can't we meet somewhere in the middle?

9/12/2011 2:55:56 PM

RW could hand the ball off to the opposing team's DE on every 4th down - could have the DE run it back for 6 - and still Wisconsin would out score enough teams for 6 wins for a trip to a bowl

9/12/2011 3:02:41 PM

Wisconsin could take TOB and lose to wf

9/12/2011 4:03:20 PM

The band could play the second half for the badgers and they would still manage 6 wins.

9/12/2011 4:04:23 PM

TOB could coach the Packers to a loss against a pop-warner team.

(this is so stupid)

9/12/2011 4:07:39 PM

wisconsin could blindfold their OL and RB's and still score >30 points on any team in the country

9/12/2011 4:10:12 PM

ITT sports talk = chit chat

AWESOME

The badgers could let the pack play the first half and still win every game.

9/12/2011 4:15:07 PM
