I’ve watched bits of Iowa’s games (bits are all I could stomach) and their defense looks pretty salty. Salty enough to absolutely manhandle our OL and shut down our sputtering offense. And I’m sure their OL will handle our atrocious D. I expect them to pretty much rush at will and, like usual, we’ll make Petras look Heisman worthy. Hope I’m wrong as beating Iowa is about the only good thing that could begin to salvage any piece of this s#!tty season. Quote Link to comment

He has a lot of good experience there. Since Chinander was coaching safeties, I can see Busch taking that over. I am not sure about Special Teams, other than all the coaches trying to contribute some or bringing up another analyst into a full-time role to handle ST. Quote Link to comment
MasterPulverizer Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Whoever thinks Wisconsin is a potential win is potentially delusional. What about our defense suggests we can stop a ground based attack? I'll make a bet with anyone on this board that Wisconsin won't throw the ball more than five times in the whole game. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Hilltop Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 If we played Wisconsin Saturday, they would run for 400 yards against us. Maybe we shore it up a bit by the time we play them but I still see 250+ yards on the ground against us. 1 Quote Link to comment
