True2tRA Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I'll be surprised if we don't see a Ohio State - Wisconsin rematch. With a better showing for Wisconsin. Should be a smooth transition for Wisconsin. I don't expect anyone to agree with me here, but I think they're better off with Chryst. Andersen is a good coach, but that was a bad fit. Actually, this has been said by a lot of people. There was quite a bit of talk last year about Alvarez and Anderson not seeing eye to eye on the direction of the team, mostly offensive philosophy. Which largely explained Anderson's willingness to bail out of Wisconsin, and jump to an iffy situation in Oregon St. Chryst will maintain exactly what has been Wisonsin's identity the last few years, and has been an extremely successful philosphy at that.

I think it will benefit them that way, but Chryst underperformed at Pitt. CollegeFootballMatrix.com has a thing called "coacheffect" that takes into account team talent vs performance vs similar teams. Chryst was one of the worst in the country. Whether that was a matter of "fit" is debateable, but I don't know if he's the "home run" some are thinking. Quote Link to comment
Scratchtown Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Wisconsin will be tough, again. Clement, the running back is VERY good.I see Nebraska losing to Miami, Wisc, MSU, and Minn (after all, they're worldbeaters) Quote Link to comment
I AM FOOT FOOT Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I wouldn't say Minnie is a world beater, or close to it, yes I know your joking, but don't think they are a gimmie to any team anymore. Id swap Riley for Kill anyday and give 6 Pelinis to boot Quote Link to comment

He very well may be Barry Alveraz clone, but he didn't show that at Pitt. He didn't even have a winning record there did he? Quote Link to comment

Might be reading too much into the 3 year sample size at a place like that. He won't have to do a complete overhaul at Wisconsin, like he did at Pitt. His offense is already in place.

Bielema and Andersen both left at least in part due to Wisconsin's stingy and non-cooperative admission standards/department. Andersen has always been a west coast guy anyways, so it works good for him. Quote Link to comment
