Wisconsin finds diamonds in the rough on the OL every year and DEVELOPS them. Very few of these guys are highly recruited by the big boys.

Wisconsin finds 6'6" and 6'7" tackles. PSU transitions 6'2" guards to the tackle position. Guess who has the more successful approach?

Florida's line is huge also. They went over the top of Bama on the first play of the game. Why don't we do that with Moo Moo? We should send him long at least 3 times a game to loosen up the defense.

because MooMoo has to be wide open to catch a deep ball. He can't use his body to shield off defenders and it is asking a lot of our QBs to drop a long ball into that tiny of a target.
They have tried this and it has failed repeatedly.

It all begins with coaching. Ours bite the big one and have for more than a decade, but who's counting the years?

Wisconsin's d was supposed to be average this year while Nebraska's really hasn't shown up this year yet.

Taylor Martinez still has a long way to go with improving as a passer. Still a very dangerous player due to his running instincts and speed.

I recall someone ridiculing the idea of Wilson as Big 10 player of the year before the season started. It's his to lose.

it was the same poster who went around calling everyone crazy who suggested PSU would be very mediocre this season. He has since changed his tune, as if he knew it would be like this all along.
