I'm sure some of you already knew this, but Wisconsin plays at Purdue next weekend. That will be some must see bye week TV, I think.
If Wisconsin mops the floor with Purdue, I might cry.
Man, this is forgettable.
I said it weeks ago: I don't care if we're unranked, #20, or #2, our margins are *slim*. This is not a play from behind kind of system. This snowballed on us, bad.
That's one of the soft spots in our zone, for sure. The trick is making that throw with any kind of consistency. Give O'Connell props, he did it over and over today.
I'm with you, we were playing with house money. #2 at the halfway point of the season, who saw that?
Excellent game plan for Purdue. O'Connell played out of his mind. A hungover Iowa team (I suspect).
It hurts, but onto Wisconsin.
We need to pivot to focusing on not letting this loss turn into 2 losses. I *think* we can still win the West at 7-2 but, obviously, would prefer to win out.
O'Connell has been straight fire emoji today. The quality of these throws and consistency is something to behold.
Sure wish it wasn't coming against us.
This won't fit the HN knee jerk narrative, but Purdue QB play today has been exceptional.
Everyone knows where the yards are against our D, it's a matter of having the QB play to cash in. Purdue's done it today.
