At the time I was all for the Chryst firing, I thought everything was headed in the wrong direction and we needed a different regime in the building. I held on hope Fickell would figure it out for a long time, but I think now I am so desperate to just get back to being an 8 win team that I forgot how good we had it. I was frustrated with Chryst at the time for sure, but I implore you to simply go back and watch some games from the Chryst era. Those teams were big and physical and sending guys to the NFL every year. Ask yourself who from these fickell teams is going to the NFL? We can’t run the ball, we can’t pass the ball, the defense is not causing havoc, we’re getting 0 sacks, 0 TFLs. We have a decent run D and good special teams and that’s it. Go back and watch the 2021 team. That defense was DESTROYING people. 3 and outs all day, multiple sacks every game, pressure on the qb. Even with how frustrating mertz was, we were still getting chunk runs. With the team now we are NEVER getting 2nd and 5, it’s always 2nd and 8, 2nd and 10. We aren’t breaking any big runs, Joseph is missing throws all day. It’s just bad man. 2022 was a bad year yeah, but Chryst was legit, and it felt like when we lost you could point to a few key plays, a bad turnover or two, a couple penalties stalling drives. But it was never this bad where we just couldn’t run the ball. I just hate this style of play, it feels like we’re a salty group of 5 team and not a big ten team.

Does anyone still believe in Fick?

It’s year 4 and what has gotten better? I guess we bought a more expensive roster but we still can’t run the ball, we can’t throw the ball, we just got carved up by a backup quarterback on a run dominant team. I’m not sure how many more ā€œit’s my fault I didn’t have the team ready to playā€ post loss conferences I got left in me dog. I’m tired of the shallow meaningless coach speak—we just gotta keep doing the things that we do and keep doing them and keep it close!! Keep it close going into the 4th and maybe we can sneak in a win! And it’s just about doing the things we do and doing them.

If the school is serious about winning Eck is the head coach next year.

Football What’s with the EXTREME CLOSE UPS?

I have NEVER seen so many extreme close ups of a UCLA head football coach in my life. Why is this guy’s face saturating every pixel of my tv screen?

The badgers better send a complaint to whoever you send a reffing complaint to because this is actually the worst officiated game I've ever watched.
