Michigan 27, #9 Wisconsin 25 (Final)

Worst loss in my life as a Badger's fan, for a regular season game at least. I knew it certainly wasn't going to be a cake walk when Wisconsin squandered one opportunity after another to score even more in the first half. Never underestimate the emotion in a football game. Football is over 70 percent emotion/morale, and the Wolverines spirits had to feel good about themselves down only 19 after what transpired in the first half. Then in the second half they go conservative playing not to lose but losses is exactly what that style creates. If you asked me if I'd take a 1-point victory at halftime, when we were up 19, I wouldn't have thought twice about it. Styles points don't matter in today's college football when talent is spread all over the country, and if you relax, anybody can beat you, no matter what they've done the previous game or even half.

Jumping off ledges and pimping yourself doing so? Neat.Pretty sure you're on pace with Wisconsin's entire board at this point.
I'm just pissed...because this crap always happens to Michigan. Just like last year against Michigan State. They always pull this crap. I don't want this to be the turning point for their season. And now, we play a pissed off Wisconsin after a loss. That's no good. Frankly though, if we bring our A game into Madison...we'll win. We are playing with a lot of passion and desire now. Buckeyes and Badgers look like night and day right now.

This may work in our favor. If TSUN can put some wins together, then we don't end our season against a damp squib. It hurts next week, because no matter what happens, Wisconsin is now the poster child for "over-rated", whether they win or lose.

It's not like Wisconsin didn't dance on our logo at centerfield. Would have been nice if they both could lose. Wisconsin came unglued when Threet started getting more mobile. I think we can take away a lot of positives from this for next week. I am much less worried than I was.
