Guess I'm super negative today.

The Badgers aren't elite this year. Mertz is a good player, but he's a year away. Guys have to be wide open for him to feel comfortable throwing. Also, I thought he was a dual threat QB? Maybe I'm mistaken.

The running game just isn't the same right now. It seems like line play, but it also might be that the RB in the room just aren't on the talent level that we are used to.

Badgers team has been greatly affected by COVID, COVID "hangover," and injuries.  There were so many young, inexperienced players on the field vs the last 3 opponents!  In a recent interview, Mertz alluded to the fact that COVID has definitely affected his body.  Makes me wonder how many others are experiencing this.  Berger was not available vs Iowa due to a last minute positive COVID test.  Our veteran wide receivers were critical to the success of our offense in earlier games, but are missing due to injuries.  This entire season was obviously not a good idea and the NCAA knew it.  That's why they ruled that it wouldn't count as a year of eligibility.

AGAIN,  its hard to win game in the big ten with your starting WR's sitting on the bench :(  However as far as Mertz goes, kid has what it takes, I believe he needs more cooperation from his secondary Receivers AS IN catching to ball ! YA, NOT ALL HIS PASSES ARE GREAT OR ON THE MARK,BUT THEN AGAIN, nobody's ever are  (but AR )  ;) I'm going all in this week with the Badgers not only covering  (14) but trouncing the Golden Mice, I hope Paul gets back to calling plays !  as great as a lineman he Joe was, I am  not quite sold on his calling plays yet...WIS-38   mice- 17     :)

Well, the mice got 17, so you were half right about the score!   ;D  Badgers only outscored them by 3, but the axe is still in Madison, so...    8)
