They showed it on the screen after they announced the award and JD gave his acceptance speech.

Malik is a machine and will have a far greater pro career than MHJ.

The gap between the number of votes between Jayden Daniels and Bo Nix was almost as big as the gap in yardage between them.

Umm, maybe they are actually being smart about it and waiting to announce deals once the early signing period is past instead of signing someone from the portal and watching a recruit they've invested years of time with decides to go elsewhere because of a portal signing? Just a thought.

7:00 PM tonight on ESPN.

Much better than when it is Slim Pickens!

The defense actually started playing better in the last couple of games once our actual DL coach was back. Not great, but noticeably improved. The Badgers are kind of a one dimensional team at this point and they don't appear to have as stout of an offensive line as they historically do.

Scouting Report for Wisconsin Overall record: 7-5 Offense: rushing = 163.1 yds/game (58th); passing = 207.1 yds/game (90th); 77th overall offense Defense: rushing = 137.9 yds/game (45th); passing = 193.4 yds/game (265h); 32nd overall defense Head Coach: Luke Fickell (1st season) Arguably, this season has been one of the worst seasons for the Badgers in recent years. However, Luke Fickell hasn't had the number of years to fully instill his system and players. This is a team that has 2 quality running backs, who combined are responsible for almost 50% of their offensive TDs on the year. Braelen Allen is the key to their offense - which is also the 5th best passing offense in the Big 10 - but relies on the productivity of Allen to set up the pass. Basically, this is a ball control rushing offense that has an average time of possession per game at 29:08 (opponents 30:41). They are 82-184 (44.57%) in 3rd down efficiency and 5-18 (27.78%) in 4th down efficiency. Tanner Mordecai (starting QB) has multiple talented options on the outside, as well as standout sophomore Will Pauling in the slot. Allen also gets involved in the passing game with 28 catches on the year. Mordecai can also pick up 1st downs with his legs, averaging 4 yds per carry on plays where he has rushed (305 yds rushing on the season). Defensively, the Badgers have only given up 24 points or more only 3 times this season. Their best defensive player is Hunter Wohler (S) who has 73 solo tackles and 40 assists for a total of 113 tackles. Ricardo Hallman (CB) has 6 interceptions on the season and 30 total tackles. Their redshirt sophmore OLB, Darryl Peterson, leads the team in sacks with 4.5 on the season and 44 total tackles (26 solo and 18 assists). Assuming our offense is clicking, I think we can pull out a victory, but our defense needs to stop their ground game and force them to pass.

This is going to be a tough game. I hope JD plays, but I'll understand if he does not.

Who freaking cares which school gets notified 1st? Some do it one way, others do it the other way. As noted, there is no easy way to do it. There is this fake expectation by the public that if you bolt quickly it is somehow "dishonorable". No coach is obligated to stay at a school just as schools are not obligated to stick with a coach until their contract expires. Coaches get fired and new opportunities open up as a result. These guys spend a significant portion of their careers as assistants that live out of moving boxes year after year as they climb the ladder for the next better opportunity. Many assistants actually rely on their wives to be breadwinners because the pay stinks for jobs when they are still getting established. When a head coach moves from a school like Duke to Texas A&M, they are cashing in on the dues they've paid over the years. What obligation is there?

Hopefully he doesn't jilt us for Bama at the last minute like his brother did.

The story had leaked, but the details of the contract may not yet have been finalized and, therefore, not official. The story was also out there that Bob Stoops was the guy until he wasn't the guy.

Daniels has 4,946 total yards on the year, which is 881 more than Nix at 4,065. The difference between Daniels and Nix first to second, is the same amount that separates Nix from Donovan Smith at 29th.

I think Les Miles did something similar when he left Oklahoma State for LSU.

I was just going to say "Imagine how they felt after Alleva."

Who cares? It's Texas A&M.

Nope.

So the decision makers at A&M give Elko the benefit of the doubt there, but not Jimbo.

What is a "Big Time Throw" and how is that measured?

Moving on to his third "to be fired" head coach?

Bye bye, Dana. https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/houston-fires-dana-holgorsen-cougars-move-on-from-coach-after-lackluster-debut-season-in-big-12/

Not to mention crappier opponents.

I prefer my punch spiked with something else.

He absolutely should not return his senior year. Signed, Kayshon Boutte
