At first I’m thinking, that’s crazy, but nobody is even looking dominant this year. They could be.
They have to be the worst team in the P4 don’t they?
nobody in Wisconsin cares honestly... they are all at the Brewers game... or watching the Brewers on TV. There was hardly anyone at the Badgers game. Fickell is a walking dead duck... nobody cares.
It's homecoming.
People are checked out but there were a lot of people in Madison today.
They should consult with Tech on how to spend money. They know what they are doing.

I’m curious as to how Ole Miss’ 3-point escape from unranked Washington State and Alabama’s 3-point comeback over a team 6 spots below them in the rankings will somehow both be spun into a deserving move up in the polls.
I mean, Bama is gonna move up simply because Oregon and Oklahoma lost, but … if you’re Ole Miss and you’re a 33.5 point favorite at home and you have to come from behind in the second half to win by 3 over a non-P4 opponent … do you really deserve to stay at 4 or even move up to 3? Or is SEC poll inertia going to just be too much?
(To a certain extent I’m a believer in “wins matter, no matter how ugly they may be,” but the pollsters certainly seem to value some wins much higher than others … so if they were going to be consistent they should devalue some wins just as much. Not to mention the deal where they’ll rank a team higher than a team that beat them on the field, for some reason.)

Only Iowa could be up 20-0 in a game where they have 120 yards.
Might have been a lot of people in Madison today (mostly Iowa fans I'm guessing)... but not many went to the game evidently... tons of empty seats at the start of the game tonight.

Both TDs set up by interceptions. One of them laughably hilarious (it was like the QB was intentionally throwing it to Iowa’s defensive lineman).
Only Iowa State could score 17 while having 441 yards of offense
