Gamethread: NIU vs. Badgers at Soldier Field

[Kerb Hohl]

Looks like Gordon may get redshirted now, eh?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO a meaningless pick, the steak is over

[ACGB]

Wilson sucks

Scratch that.

Really happy with the way the defense played.

We have one more preseason game and then the season starts.

Only two weeks from Nebraska. I love that whenever the Badgers have to play a highly ranked team, they are always at home. Just two that I remember recently are Ohio St. last year when they were #1, and Ohio St. in like 2003 when they were ranked #5 or #6. I really think we could pull off this game against Nebraska.

[Kerb Hohl]

I get what you're saying, but we've had some big games on the road. You just don't remember them because Michigan, Penn State, and Ohio State handed our asses to us on a platter.

For those that got to watch this, how did our DL look? How about our LBs?

[James1980]

Borland was getting behind the line of scrimmage for tackles and a sack. The other LBS and DL were solid, but nothing really stands out.

[Flames24Rulz]

Was at this game...was a fun time, even though NIU got blitzed. I really thought NIU could at least make it a game for a half or so, before losing by 17-21. I totally didn't see that coming from NIU's offense/Wisconsin's defense. NIU actually has a pretty decent offense, but you guys really kept Harnish in check. That was a bludgeoning.

Side note, I wore my XLV hat to the game and got a lot of responses from Wisconsin fans, so that was pretty cool.

Hopefully the Wisconsin team can take out the Illinois team at Soldier Field this week too.

[BUCKnation]

Was at the game as well. For being a blow out, the game was still pretty entertaining.

Small Notes:
Russell Wilson=Boss
Toon was very good as well.
Borland seemed to be everywhere.
Even without devin smith the pass D was still very good.

Flames24Rulz, I started my NIU internship last Wednesday. Tomorrow is going to be my second day. Seems like a cool place, everyone in the athletic department is really nice and easy going. I'll be working down there every Wednesday for the rest of the semester and then 1 day a week next semester. So maybe we'll get the chance to meet up at some point.

Must be a horrible experience meeting people from RealGM in person.

Especially when they creepily approach you at a bar.
