Anyone think its odd that the Wisky OL are all wearing short pants and no knee braces? Don't think I've seen that ever on an OL. The Hawks even wear those braces in every practice.
Yes. This seems weird to say, but to me wearing those are an indication of the team's philosophy of controlling the line of scrimmage.

That O line that looks nothing the the Wisconsin O lines from the old days. They look like a MAC team O line.

Yea, I thought it was just weird only one guy was wearing a brace on one leg. None of the other guys were wearing them, and I can't remember many teams not wearing those on the OL. I've also NEVER seen the OL wearing the short (up on the thigh pants) like the skilled guys all wear now.

Again and again repeat wash and repeat… Fickle needs to go as long as he’s there they’re in deep doo doo… they need to stick to what Iowa has maintained with a tough OLine and great running game … they don’t have the bodies to be any air raid offense… and aren’t built for it
Oh, God NO! Fickle needs to stay at Wisky. I like them just where they have been the last three years.......

ugly loss… they got curb stomped after halftime..plain and simple… Pickle 🥒 needs the high road out of Madison. BUT, I hope they keep him for an eternity… and they passed on Jim Leonard? Bad mistake and their new AD is a flop… calling it like it is see it

Well let’s see, O line ranked #1 in the country, Defense ranked #2 in the country, overall rank of #4. They will be in the playoffs, CJ Carr will be an nfl qb. ……not chopped liver
And rankings are facts? Okay.
