Fickle Fickell



For the love of God pull the plug on this guy. Two games without a point was grounds for termination. Three games without a point qualifies for termination of the program. I don't care whom it's against.

On the other hand don't change a thing. This a car wreck I can't turn my head away from. Serves them right for canning Chryst and not considering Leonhard.
I say don’t encourage them. Let them keep him around for a while. :)

They have the weather to thank largely for being able to stay in that game out in Oregon. And I think the Ducks really didn't respect them coming in. I'll give Wisky a tad wee bit of credit in that I did watch some of that game and they were hitting and playing hard. It wasn't a team that'd quit anyway.

Which my biggest takeaway from it for us is that Oregon doesn't like getting hit. PSU/Indiana and now Wisky playing hard against them like they did flustered Oregon and they really didn't respond well to it.
That bodes really well for us cause I think we can push them around and wear them down.

Make sure D watches ‘Violence Tape’ each day this week.
 






In all honesty Wisconsin isn't a team that's going to benefit by firing a guy midseason. They don't have the pull to get a new guy who's going to fix things. They are now nebraska reincarnate. And it's also why I've never subscribed to the fire Kirk madness. If that happens we are nebraska 3.0.

Oregon's preferred way of doing things is a terrible matchup for them vs. Iowa. Add in 2 time zones, get lucky and add in some hopefully cold weather (sorry guys who are attending but we need it), and this one could be interesting. Obviously I know we're not gonna get a cold snap but I can dream.

There are a grand total of 5 players on their rooster from cold weather states. FIVE.

Tons of Hawaiians, and almost all of them are from Texas, California, Nevada, Arizona, etc. I say let it be 33* at kickoff with a stiff north wind.

I just looked and they didn't/haven't played a single cold weather game in 2023, 2024, or 2025. The game they played in Wisconsin last year was 53 degrees.
 


I also don't think they enjoy physical rock fight type of games. That also plays into Iowa's hands. They want to go fast and use their speed. Iowa's methodical approach on offense with TOP, and a stingy defense that makes them play underneath and in front could frustrate them.....I hope. AND hopefully Kinnick is even louder than it was for Penn State.

Exactly this season was toast. Bear Bryant couldn't have gotten them to a bowl game at any point this yr had he taken over. So you make Fickell eat all those Ls since they should be on him anyway. Cause he's not going to quit he's gotta get fired to get all his $. So just play out the yr and in their case they'll probably fire their AD along with him and do a total house cleaning.
