Woke up feeling nervous about this game.

Have fun and cheer loud, Ryan!

I'll be watching how well the O-line performs - we had to replace over half of the offensive line, including both guards. Hoping QB Coan has a solid start. We return all of our receivers from last year (plus Cephus) so hopefully we can compliment the running game with some play action? Obviously, Taylor will get the bulk of the carries on offense. I'm most concerned about how our defense is going to perform. They're relatively inexperienced and the D-line is practically brand new. I can see them giving up some big plays due to their inexperience. As many have suggested, the high humidity may play a role late in the game, so that's a definite advantage to the Bulls. After losing at home to BYU last year, I'm no longer taking any game for granted. I think it will be a much closer game than many of my Badger friends think. Good luck!

Thanks for the kind welcome! I've been lurking here for the past 2-3 weeks. I've found some of Ryan's posts a bit over the top, but I'm sure he's a nice fella and I'm glad you're all enjoying his contributions to the board! Good luck Friday, wish I could say I was coming down for it.

Perhaps, but certainly not as innovative as USF's plan to "load the box" to stop Wisconsin running game! lol
