Wisconsin 17, Iowa 13 (final)

Another piss poor job by ABC/ESPN. Wisconsin fumbles the opening kickoff of the second half, and Iowa recovers. You can see on the screen that something's happening, but they cut away to go through replays instead of sticking with the action. Once they get through the replays, Mushbooger explains, "The reason you see people celebrating is because there was a turnover on the first play." THAT KIND OF STUFF PISSES ME OFF! Ultimately, they have one job, and that's to show us the game. Show us that superfluous crap when there's downtime - not over the top of the actual game!

BTW - Iowa made nothing of the opportunity - they attempted a FG and it was blocked.

It's still 10-7 early in the 4th Qtr.

I'm rooting for Iowa in this one. I have several reasons:

1.) They're ahead of Ohio State in the Coaches' Poll
2.) I still hate Wisconsin for that game in 2003. And the one where Ron Dayne ran wild in the Shoe. And for that season in the early '90s where they split the Big Ten title and they got to go to the Rose Bowl because Ohio State had gone more recently. That rule is still bullshit.
3.) I picked Iowa in the Upset Picks Contest, and I need to get some points back from anybody that was lucky enough to pick Syracuse.
