We've defeated two teams with tough, tough defenses and we've now won in two hostile environments (Jack Trice is hostile when Iowa plays there) It was ugly, but I don't care. I'm hoping Wisconsin's tough defense and the strong win had a lot to do with it.
Uglier games for me would probably be the 6-4, the aforementioned Illinois game, and the Michigan State game from 2012 were ugly. Another ugly game for would be the Penn State game from 2002 just because we blew a huge lead to take it to OT and games with a blown lead like that (or even one where the other team comes close) always feel worse than a low scoring game with a bunch of mistakes like this one.

The Penn State win was by far the ugliest.

PSU 2004 was ugly. MN 2009 was nearly just as bad from a yardage standpoint. The Syracuse road win in 2006 was not a lot of fun.
But who cares? They won. They won today in a hostile environment and the defense did work.

Iowa? Matt Sherman, who started 7-0 over the end of 1994 to the start of the 1995 season.

How about you calm down. The thread poses an interesting question.

In 09 he did indeed start 90.
But . . . what was his record in his first 6 starts? (think 08)

This. One of the ugliest games ever.

Does not matter. The weight of that Biels-sized monkey was FINALLY lifted. This was a win that transcends ugliness. This was a program momentum shift, and, for that, is Mona Lisa-esque in its beauty.
