How Wisky is defending OSU is likely how they'll defend nebraska. OSU will have to win this through the air and with JT's legs. Not sure he can pass it well enough to win this game.

OSU is still in this game because they forced FGs. Nebraska will have to do the same.

Watching this game is like watching Ron Lyle and George Foreman go at it, super heavyweight contest.

It will be interesting to play a late october game that matters. We were 0-infinity with Bo at the helm in such games, especially after 2011. Does the relaxed demeanor of Riley mean the team will keep it close in big games?

glad osu won ...we will have a tough time in Madison

Anyone thinks that Wisconsin isn't any good by who they have only defeated doesn't have a clue...

This is a very good football team. Who ever wins in Madison wins the West, unless that terrible field in Evanston trips up the Badgers.

^^^^^^
IF I were a voter, I'd leave Wisky ahead of us. If Nebraska is better, we will find out in 2 weeks.

Can we really say we would have beaten Michigan and of course tOSu which we will find out back-to - back?

If Wisconsin is better than us they will jump us when they beat us, is it really that difficult? "whisky' choked that game away at home

Is it really that difficult to believe a team with two losses could be better than an undefeated one? I hope like hell we Nebraska beats them, but they with 2 losses have looked better than Nebraska. Your saying Wisky choked a game away against an undefeated Ohio State just backs up my view.

Just to clarify, according to Big Ten fans, Ohio State should not be eligible for the national championship playoff because they had to win a game in overtime. Right? Because Michigan fans have been spouting that exact same logic since 1997. So I just need to confirm it for the record.

For what it's worth, OSU had to go to overtime to beat a PSU team that wasn't a top 10 team in overtime in 2014. They also beat Illinois in OT in 2002. Both years they won the National Championship that included beating the number one ranked team in the nation in the post-season.

The point being is that championship teams win those games. Wisconsin is for real, and OSU is fortunate to come out the victor.

Uw got jobbed when Barrett ran that TD in... they had a back and a lineman both false start and no flag
The tackle also jumped on the play prior to the TD run, T was in the back before the QB got there, was obvious, but the lineman had issues with coaches getting in his way on that sideline.
