- Pick/market: Look at his game log.

- Pick/market: Great interview and article Nick… it is honestly what keeps me here (loved this story).

- Pick/market: If your theory is true, I think the next 10-15 years could be rough if our donors are more worried about playing “school” than football.

- Injury: We went 1-0 without any significant long term injuries.

- Injury: I don't have a problem with a coach deflecting for a kid at this level.

- Injury: After JL took over for Chryst, he also mentioned that he made some adjustments to practice helping guys feel a bit fresher.

- Injury: I don't understand playing an injured player and restricting the types of throws he can make when everyone is raving about QB depth.

- QB: Yes, unfortunately I don't think they're going to get a high ROI on this guy.

- QB: Sure, absolutely if that was his call that falls on his shoulders.

- QB/OL: Joseph able to hit the easy throws and get out of the pocket when it’s not there immediately.

- QB: I want someone who calls the offense and has extensive QB coaching background.

- Pick/market: Wake went 9-4 with flipping Robby Ashford at QB last year...

- QB: Why do you think we don’t throw more passes in the seems in the middle of the field.

- QB/OL: SDSU QB missed three open shots.

- QB: It's just a matter of what point in the season does Eichorst make the call.

- Wisconsin QB Colton Joseph had a throwing-arm issue that kept him from throwing Tuesday and limited Wednesday work before Western Illinois. Luke Fickell did not plan extra backup opportunities solely for health against Eastern Michigan; he still wants designed runs and scrambles available. This was not a full-clearance announcement. - Wisconsin's Malachi Coleman's status remained unknown after hitting his head on the turf. Fickell noted he returned to the field and was vocal in the huddle, but said the staff still needed to find out more. That observation does not establish a diagnosis, clearance or availability for Eastern Michigan. - Wisconsin's Emerson Mandell had no confirmed return date. Fickell hoped to increase his practice involvement that week and work him into the mix approaching Big Ten play, but still needed an update and to see what he could do. Treat the plan as a possible progression, not an announced return. - Fickell liked Wisconsin's offensive-line physicality and Kevin Heywood's progress in his second game back after missing most of camp and the prior season. He still wanted cleaner center snaps and more from PJ. Negative-yardage plays usually stopped drives against Western Illinois, and sustaining execution after fast starts remained a concern. - Wisconsin DL DeNigel Cooper added weight to roughly 280-285 pounds and gives the larger interior linemen a quicker changeup, with Fickell identifying pass rush as an early role. The defense had forced no turnovers through two games; attacking and dislodging the ball remained a stated emphasis, not a guaranteed turnover rebound.

- Pick/market: People like to just label 17-19 as “simply JT”, but besides the obvious in a really good defense those years, the scheme and coaching blocked up very well.

- Intel: The Badgers drew their smallest crowd at Camp Randall Stadium in nearly 34 years when they played Western Illinois on Saturday night.

- Sama's initial explosive run was not necessarily the direct result of a supreme push from the offensive line, as the senior running back bounced to the sideline before turning the corner in search of daylight. - But Dupree's burst up the middle was created off blocks from center Austin Kawecki, guard Stylz Blackmon and tackle Kevin Heywood. - Comment: The OL completely caved in the right side on that play.

- The Badgers were outmatched in a blowout loss against then-No. - 4 Notre Dame to open the year before rebounding with a 27-point victory over Western Illinois. - Sitting at 1-1 over the first pair of weekends, here is where Wisconsin stands across a few different stat categories on each side of the ball. - Comment: Thank you for this.

- Sama's initial explosive run was not necessarily the direct result of a supreme push from the offensive line, as the senior running back bounced to the sideline before turning the corner in search of daylight. - But Dupree's burst up the middle was created off blocks from center Austin Kawecki, guard Stylz Blackmon and tackle Kevin Heywood. - Comment: Barry alvarez used to say he knew an ol was good when he didnt hear their name.

- Offense: Saying "at least they didn't score a TD" is not comforting.

- WR: “I think it was a great experience, the only time I had seen Jump Around it was on TV and stuff and I was really excited for that part.

- TE: #Wisconsin TE transfer Tucker Ashcraft into the game and making his season debut.

- RB: Running back Abu Sama III takes the first play 72 yards for a touchdown.

- DL: I honestly do have faith in this team still, every single team had a bad day today.

- DL: What’s giving them fits schematically is tressel being the opposite of exotic pressure and being passive as a napping sloth.

- DL: 👆 I remember thinking how stupid it was to throw $30m at a poorly managed problem.

- DL: PFF has him at a 78.2 run defense grade for the year so far.

- Defense: PFF: Grades, snaps and analysis from Wisconsin’s defense vs.

- Intel: In today's college football you need to be a Ring Master.

- Intel: passing accuracy in this next game it's probably time to give Hopkins some reps and see what he can do against another weak opponent.

- Intel: Re: Sama i vote we give it a week or two before we write-off the kid who just had 8 carries for 107 yds and a TD lol

- Intel: but hold on, getting them top heavy and bodybuilding is sick for twitter pics… so… gotta feed the hype zone.

- Intel: You can't convince me otherwise that every AD in college football would done the same hire.

- Intel: Cut n paste this into the Packer thread, same issues on that team too…

- Intel: I’m slightly concerned with Everett saying before the year they want Sama to be a bell cow.

- Intel: Obviously have to do your due diligence but it’s Eck’s job if he wants it.

- Intel: I couldn't imagine UW not reaching out to JL to gauge interest, he's still a Wisconsin guy and especially with McIntosh gone.

- Intel: Probably the best I thing I could have read and honestly should make this season very low stress for a lot of folks on both sides of the Fickell aisle Either he pulls it...

- Intel: He didn’t want a HC job years ago and I think he’s just born to coach in the trenches not manage the whole football picture and assemble a staff.

- LB: At least portal is not until January so you have a month to get staff and prepare.

- Intel: New game GIFs just dropped : https:// giphy.com/uwbadgers/2026 -football …

- Intel: #Badgers football: UW last season finished last in the nation in turnovers forced w/six (five picks, one fumble recovery).

- LB: The same person who handpicked the AD...Barry can stay 100% away from any decisions on football.

- LB: 'All in all, we needed to continue to grow.' Notes that not in rhythm fully, but will be good for practice this week.

- Intel: 20 SECONDS IN AND WE'VE GOT A TOUCHDOWN : @BigTenNetwork
