Badger Fan: "But...but we're better than them just look at the stats...er...take away the pick 6....er the second pick 6.....er...both pick 6s.....and that darn kick off return.....we out scored their offense so we must be....if we played them 10 times we would win 8! On a neutral field...er the refs..yes the refs cost us the game they were holding all game long and never got called...er" "Just look how bad their offense is! Their QB sucks and can't throw! And their running backs are little! No, I didn't hear their offense had the flu. So what? We're better! We should have won! So they got 3-4 sacks. 6? They didn't get 6 sacks! I'm sure they they didn't.......But..take away the 6 sacks that the refs gave them and........"

The funny thing is, their touchdown was on a fake field goal and doesn't count as an offensive TD, so take away all special teams and defensive scores and we still beat them 10 to 6.
