Badgers returned a fumble earlier for a TD, but it was called back for the whistle having blown. Review proved that it was a fumble. That mistake should never occur, yet it's been the 2nd time it did against Wisconsin this season. Bill Carollo needs to do a better job of directing his officials.

I agree. Let's retroact it to Wisconsion @ Ohio State, 2004.

I can't remember my middle name, but I never forget the refs blowing a call. :biggrin:

Give John Clay the damn ball already. On both drives Wisconsin has relied upon him, they've scored TD's. He may be a little fat, but he's still a big time running back.

Goldie Gopher made a show of stealing a Paul Bunyon axe in the second half, and then taking off his shirt to reveal a purple Vikings Favre jersey.

Funny stuff, but it looks like #4 is going to be the only one of the two things ending up in Minnesota after this weekend.

24-13 with about 10 minutes left.

Wisconsin is a really high caliber ballclub, who has self destructive tendencies. It's unbelievable how we've dominated everybody when we didn't have the flu, yet the opponent is in the ballgame to the end.

I'm just really speechless other than to recap what just happened. 80 yards in 40 seconds against a so called prevent defense. Wisconsin had a takeaway to end the game, but it's negated by a penalty. Of course it can't be this easy.

Chris Borland from Kettering Ohio is fucking unreal! He got 5 straight QB pressures, with a couple of sacks (I think), and the clinching fumble recovery. Thank God because I would have had a heart attack otherwise.

Minny fought hard to force a come-back, but it just wasn't enough. The coaches and players were looking for the deep ball when they could have settled on short yard passes over the middle for first downs.

Decker is a solid QB for this team. Im actually looking forward to playing Minny this year. Their fans seemed to "get up" for this big game now that they actually have a respectable stadium.

For those not sure, tOSU plays Minny at home this year, and at TCF Bank next season.

Good call, I kind of insinuated that it would be an away game for us - though I do wish it was. Playing at new stadiums, in game-altering weather can only make you team better.

Thanks BB

Are you a Minnesota fan, because it doesn't seem like that would be the case from your user-name. You looked at everything from their perspective. If anybody beat themselves, it was Wisconsin. They have shown the tendency to self destruct down the stretch in every game this season. Minnesota nearly lost to Cuse and Air Force. They're not good enough to control their own destiny.

Looking forward to the game next week against the Buckeyes. Wisconsin certainly can win that ballgame. The Badgers are a problem for OSU even in down years, which this one is not. John Clay can be very difficult for anybody to stop, as we saw today. Minnesota knew the Badgers would run the football, but it didn't matter. He's stepped it up in almost every big game in his short career.
