  1. I 100 percent agree. I'm a big time fan boy but this year... it's different. I think this team is different. We hit the sweet spot with coaching hires and use of the transfer portal. We brought back a lot of talent and it looks like for the first time in years we're going into the season healthy (knock on wood). Now we have leadership and experience at every level and the talent is there. We just gotta execute. I think some of our fans will be surprised by the Wisconsin game.
  2. Me to. B2 to Mitch is going to be something to see. The talent level on this team is crazy and I think they're going to get better as the season goes on. But I think we're actually lined up good for a fast impressive start.
  3. I didn't think they set a date until spring when we signed the new deal with ESPN... they announced it wouldn't be a Saturday game but rather a Friday.
  4. I keep saying this team is not the same team as last year. All bets are off... this team is a lot better than last years team.
  5. Larkin was never the starting center and he was a guard. That was also 2 years ago, he quit that summer.. I remember because Ruff started at guard the San Jose game and then they moved him back to center. Larkin was mad because he didn't think he got a fair shot which was ridiculous.
  6. Used to party in Madison. I spent a year living in Menomonie... I dated a girl from UW Eau Claire. State and University... yup... drank an awful lot in Madison... but to be honest the most fun I had was in Lacrosse.
  7. tell that to Gilbert. I actually don't really remember any of our recent coaches being that great with red-zone conversions with the exception of Taggart because of Flowers. Aside from that, I don't really think our OC's mentioned a lot about it. Not that I can recall. Bell was the first coach I heard say his entire red-zone offense changes week to week depending on the foe. We're literally in uncharted waters with this.
  8. the defense was better then. But I remember our offense. Just take a look at our school records. We've been OK... but I expect more now. I'm tired of not playing for anything.
  9. agreed... which is why I'm happy Bell puts a big emphasis on red zone offense.
  10. indeed... I mean the difference between 18 and 20 is big... A year to grow and mature with these kids can change everything.
  11. we finished 8-5... 2-5 in the conference. We had a big win... but we were just an OK team. We started off ok and lost 5 of our next 7... we beat Cuse who sucked that season and uconn. I'm not sure what good means... but we've not actually ever had 1 good team and even then we got smoked by Oregon in the bowl.
  12. Nate Allen... Skinny... even K Webb... they all got better and ended up in the pros. We've had players go the opposite route too. I'm not paying attention to his arguments, he doesn't appear to know a lot about our football history. Shoot... I remember people saying Auggie shouldn't be starting... I remember people saying Flowers shouldn't be a QB... so I take it all with a grain of salt... I like to call ******** too.
  13. I'm not arguing a thing. I just dont recall them actually saying they missed a lot of practice. I mean I'm supposing now they cancelled a few practices because of rain. I wonder how many practices they missed.
  14. A coach probably asked he take it down, which is probably best.
  15. I'm pretty sure they met the practice time allotment. I don't think they actually missed any practice time as opposed to have it spread out over more time because of interruption.
  16. It's will be funny if those two have spectacular seasons... because they're poised to.
  17. Dude... you're not a coach... you're not a talent advisor... you haven't sat in on one practice. You've never seen some of these players actually perform. I would hope that no head coach ever made a decision based on your opinion. Give it up... literally over. We'll see in a week.
  18. Did they actually miss practice time or just move them around according to the weather. I don't recall seeing any practices being cancelled, just moved.
  19. Oh... I'm not saying we'll stop the run completely. I think we'll outscore them because they have holes in their secondary. As much as they are a bad matchup for us, we are for them too. I think we'll put up some points... more than 30... I feel like we score 35 or more points, we win.
  20. We haven't actually accomplished anything except beating a bunch of OOC teams over the years. We've never won the conference... playing for a championship means something at some point. We're stuck in the mud until we can win a conference championship... we haven't even played for one actually.
  21. Sawtelle is starting and it doesn't matter what anyone thinks. He's been running with the 1's in practice and is 1 on the depth chart. All signs point to starting.
