12/31 and 2 INTs ---

2 chances to win this game with a drive ... in regulation and in OT and TA came up small both times
WE win with him and lose with him. With our O line injuries I'm afraid anybody other a sitting duck ..... He had people in his face all night.

If we were going to run the ball I would have done it out of the shotgun. What would you have called?
We ran the first one out of the shotgun/pistol. Then went to a play that had been working all night, but was nailed for a loss by a linebacker who made a great play. I don't have any issue with what was called. I questioned you because you obviously did. I'm sure you know better since all you do is complain.

Langford wasted 2 plays running up the middle. No call was huge and 4th down throw was high risk.. I just don't understand no running any screens, outside runs or run pass option..

PI or not ... there were 4 guys around Westy ... the ball had no business being thrown his way
Who cares? It's still pass interference any day of the week. Plenty of penalties are called on plays that shouldn't have been done that way, it was as clear pass interference as I have ever seen, it wasn't a question of did he grab him or not, he literally walled him off from even getting to the ball, that's pass interference any day off the week. I complain about officiating a lot, and even I would have not been the least bit upset if the teams were reversed and it had been called on Nebraska.

I would have to see thatpass
I would have loved a qb draw in either of the last 2 drives.....

Note they assigned a backer or safety to Tommy. It was clear they wanted Tommy to beat them with his arm, not his legs. It worked.

What wold you have called?

Short pass to Stanley Morgan? Wisconsin couldn't tackle him all night in the open field.

Would have liked to see a play-action on 1st down of overtime, we had momentum after the missed extra point.

The coaches need to do some explaining as to why they waited till the fourth quarter to start getting Morgan the ball

I don't know what they should or should not have called on that overtime drive but it felt like the offense was playing for 3 rather than a TD.

Like I said..out of shotgun, not the pistol. All I do is complain? Is that all you got?

Banderas got held on 2 of badgers plays in overtime by #65, first #65 just grabs him and throws him to the ground, next was on sweep to the left side #65 had Banderas by a arm bar. Got give these Big Ten officials their due they are constantly horrible, officials who cannot even spot the ball correctly. Westercamp got blowup in his route and not one BIG Ten official has the cojones to throw a flag. But heck they didn't the whole game. Been told officials should not criticize other officials, but these are not high school worthy.

People would lynch the staff if they did that. Although anyone with half a brain understands that is a good play in that situation. It would be nice if people could get behind this staff instead of acting like redneck mouth-breathers after every play.
