Speaker 1 (01:04):
With the call of the game, here's Mark Tauscher and
the voice of the Vedgers Matt Lapey.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
Good Afternoon from Huntington Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minnesota, alongside
Mark Tauscher, Patrick Kerr, Mike Keller, Dave McCann, and Issha Jackson.
Back at a Network studio. This is matt Leapey. We
welcome you to Wisconsin Football, and we welcome you to
the battle for Paul Bunyan's Acts. This is the longest
ongoing rivalry in major college football, and they are set

(01:33):
to hook up yet again today. Both programs with sixty
three wins all time. Back when they were ties, they
deadlocked eight times. So the winner gets the acts and
the all time series lead. As the Badgers and Gophers
are set to hook up, and mark this as you
live this. This is a fun one. Games are always special.
This one, though, always hits differently, doesn't it.

Speaker 7 (01:55):
It definitely does.

Speaker 8 (01:56):
And I think, you know a lot of that is
both programs pri you know, built them kind of build
themselves in the same way, you know, especially with the
you know, in the Alvarez era, and there's you know,
we're recruiting the same kids and the border and all
of that stuff. And and I know, from from my perspective, uh,
it was always a big deal. We'd have Jim Huber

(02:16):
get up and give a passion speech about how important
it is to protect the acts, and then you know,
coach Alvarez.

Speaker 7 (02:23):
Builds the you know, the trophy case and we're not
We're not leaving that case empty now. And it just
means a lot to everybody involved.

Speaker 8 (02:32):
And I think, you know, there was such a long
stretch where we it was almost like, yeah, this is
just what it is, Wisconsin host and I give PJ.

Speaker 7 (02:39):
Fleck and Minnesota credit.

Speaker 8 (02:40):
They have been able to kind of rip it away
from us a few times. So for this group of
seniors and for this group, I think it is really
important to finish this season off because the resiliency and
how this group has responded to adversity. You know, doubtful
that will be going to a bowl game. This is
it and you get trophy to take home. There's a

(03:01):
lot of other trophies Heartland and all this other stuff.
This is the trophy game. This is the one that matters,
and this is the this is we want. We want
to take that axe back to Madison.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
It's twenty four degrees in Minneapolis right now. The win
they say is ten to fifteen miles pro that up
here field. Yeah, well, nice window you got closed their mark.
For those of us who are manly, menu you up
the way out. But yeah, it's kind of we're starting
to blow in here right now. They say ten to
fifteen miles per hour. They're lying. It feels a little gusty,
to be real honest with you. They're not expecting as

(03:33):
much snow here as they are back in Madison. They're
saying one to three inches. But there's it's slowly starting
to cover the surface at Huntington Banks Stadium and standing
in the midst of it all and hopefully everything is
working here with our with our gear. Let's check in
with our sideline reporter Patrick Herb.

Speaker 9 (03:52):
It grew to me right as Minnesota takes the field,
and that's what this roar is about. This stadium holds
about fifty thousand people. They tell us forty six thous
tickets are out, but I have a feeling there's going
to be a few no shows. The rumor was that
the parking lots were a little bit quiet. It's a
little bit hostile in here too. You gotta watch out
for snowballs. The bleachers have been covered with snow over

(04:12):
the last several hours, and there are some projectiles coming
from the students section over two hoar left here. But
the conditions, if it remains at twenty four degrees at kickoff,
it'll be one of the ten coldest games in Wisconsin history.
And for this Badger team, they this is what they want.
They Luke Fickl's been preaching to his team all week.
We want it to be ugly, we want it to
be sloppy and MESSI.

Speaker 4 (04:34):
They've already won a game.

Speaker 9 (04:35):
In these kind of conditions this season.

Speaker 4 (04:37):
They've proven they could do it.

Speaker 9 (04:39):
This stadium, in particular, does have the heated field underneath
it like Camp Randall does. When the Vikings played here
for two seasons while their stadium was being built, the
first year it did not and the field was very frozen,
and there was a famous game late in the year
against the Green Bay Packers in which Brett Farv got
a concussion from hitting the playing surface. That offseason, they
installed a heated oil.

Speaker 7 (05:00):
Underneath this field.

Speaker 9 (05:01):
And so what that means is it's not gonna keep
me warm down here, but it will keep the field
for being frozen and probably will slow some of the
accumulation so they may not have to shovel off the
yard lines during the game.

Speaker 2 (05:13):
I will say this, and Patrick is spot on. There
are a lot of no shows, but the student session
is well represented. I think they were saying welcome badgers.
Was that the change, That's what I like.

Speaker 7 (05:23):
That sounded like it.

Speaker 8 (05:24):
I don't know if there was any cussing within that.
Oh no, everybody is very cordial when you get to
an axe gain. But just as far as the weather goes,
and I think when you have the formula that Wisconsin
has where you're gonna, you know, play great defense.

Speaker 7 (05:37):
You always want it to be messy.

Speaker 8 (05:39):
You want to even make you want to enhance your
strengths even that much more so. This is perfect conditions.
You don't want it any other way. You get to
the end of November. You want to finish this bad
boy off in conditions like this.

Speaker 2 (05:50):
Tim O'Day the referee captains on the field for the
coin toal.

Speaker 10 (05:54):
This is Paul, I'm gonna let it hit the ground.

Speaker 7 (05:58):
It is a tail.

Speaker 10 (05:59):
You've won the talk us Wisconsin is one of the
toss They've elected to defer their choice. In the second half,
you'll receive You guys, want to kick that direction. Swing
your backs this way, Minnesota.

Speaker 2 (06:09):
The captains for Wisconsin Vinning Anthony Aaron Wits along with
Ricardo Hallman and Darryl Peterson. Derek like captain the captain
for Minnesota, as the Badgers have deferred after winning the toss.
So one thing, well, when we get to this point
the Badgers, we've talked a lot. Patrick mentioned it last week,
the middle eight that actually swung in Wisconsin's favor last

(06:32):
week against Illinois. When we get to that point, we'll
keep an eye on that here today against Minnesota as
well as we are about set to go as the
Badgers will be kicking off to start the game here
in Minneapolis.

Speaker 8 (06:43):
And I know there's been some you know, you watch
some NFL games and when it's windy, and I know
the wind it's.

Speaker 7 (06:49):
It's definitely windier than what was reported.

Speaker 8 (06:51):
That is something that you want to start thinking about too,
especially at the end of haves and at the end
of the game.

Speaker 7 (06:56):
So I love this.

Speaker 8 (06:57):
You want to let your defense the tone here when
you get this kick, you go down and you try
and get a three and out and set this thing
off because you just feel like today get a lead
and force Minnesota in to do and what you know,
you make them one dimensional and you let this defense
eat because they have really this second half, really this

(07:18):
last month, the pass rush and what this front has
been able to do to have really good football teams.

Speaker 7 (07:25):
It's been impressive. And that's what we're hoping to see today.

Speaker 2 (07:27):
Withthaniel Vakos thirty five kickoffs, thirty one of which have
been touchbacks. You will kick off Badgers kicking from our
right to our left. The stadium runs east west, so
the gofers traveling west to east, if you're interested in
that left to right from our vantage Boyd Badgers and
the traveling White unis the cardinal trim Minnesota in the

(07:48):
whole maroon with the gold trim Koley Perrich, cam Davis
the deep men for Minnesota. As we settle in on
a snow east Saturday afternoon in the Upper Midwest, reminds
us a little bit of twenty nineteen when the Badgers,
Jack Cone, Jonathan Taylor, Quintessiphising Company came to town and

(08:08):
cleaned the West Division championship, as well as Paul Bunyan's acts.
Very similar type of weather conditions here today as we're
ready to roll, here's Veco's on the run up and
the kick is away. Parridge waits for you'll catch the
goal and at the right hashwatch five to the ten,
cutting right fifteen yard line outside the numbers and wrestles
his way up to the twenty. Is Nicholas Clayton there

(08:31):
in kick coverage and the Gophers started their twenty yard line.
We are underway at Huntington Bank Stadium.

Speaker 8 (08:37):
And Perrich is a heck of a football player bouncing
around every the return game. Obviously they move they're moving
him around a lot. He's somebody you want to make
sure you contain. Wisconsin did a nice job there.

Speaker 2 (08:49):
So Drake Lindsay, the red shirt freshman quarterback. He has
Darius Taylor with him at running back. It's very good
Wisconsin defense, especially of late Ben Barton JV yard sugs
the interior, Corey Walker getting a start on the edge
along with Darryl Peterson. And the first play from scrimmage
for the Gophers in their own twenty yard line, Lindsay

(09:11):
in the shotgun Taylor to his left and the snap
to Lindsay looks to throw floats it to the left,
caught by Lemecky Brockington. I think gets shot that amounds
by Riccardol Holman at the twenty five yard line of
the far side, a gain of five on the first
play of the day.

Speaker 8 (09:25):
And this will be the interesting little chess match Minnesota.
I think they're gonna throw it around the lot today
and then it's gonna be Wisconsin trying to kind of
figure out because they're gonna still play their base stuff.
They're gonna try and stop the run. You're gonna see
how that battle goes if Minnesota continues to throw unearly downs.

Speaker 2 (09:41):
Lindsay threw for four touchdowns last week, twenty out of
thirty two hundred and sixty four yards second in five
Minnesota for the Gophers twenty five yard line, and a
little play fake Lindsay to throw again to the left
and it's dropped by Javon Tracy here the thirty five
yard line of the far side. Deanna Hill over the
area coverage and it's third and five for the Golphers

(10:03):
at their twenty five yard line.

Speaker 8 (10:04):
And I think that tells you a little bit about
why Wisconsin wants this kind of weather, because you're gonna
give up some easier throws.

Speaker 7 (10:11):
That's a little five yard.

Speaker 8 (10:12):
Out and when it's crappy out when the ball is cold.

Speaker 7 (10:17):
It's a normal August September day, probably catches that. Not today.

Speaker 2 (10:20):
Cooper Catialano, Mason Posa, the inside backers, so Posa back
in there after getting banged up last week against Illinois.
Third and five for the Gophers. Lindsay to throw again
to the left, and that is caught by Drew Bibber.
He will make the catch just beyond the line to
gain and a first down for Minnesota. Actually right at
the line to gain, which is the thirty of the Gophers.

(10:42):
First and ten boy.

Speaker 8 (10:43):
And he and Lindsay had to get rid of that
ball quick. Riger beat the right tackle immediately on an
inside move right in his face.

Speaker 2 (10:49):
Two receivers right, one on the left. Lindsay to throw
at a screen to the left, pass caught by Taylor
at the thirty yard line to the thirty five, and
Cooper Catalano will run him down across the thirty five
five yard line up to the thirty sixth of Minnesota,
a gain of six second down and four for the Gophers.

Speaker 8 (11:05):
I thought Cooper did a really good job of recognizing
that you saw the offensive tackles kind of do a
swing through and.

Speaker 7 (11:12):
That usually tells you.

Speaker 8 (11:13):
Cooper took his initial drop and then saw that that
screen was developing and went minute. Actually, Minnesota drew that
up pretty nicely. If Cooper can't get over there, but
he was able to get him down.

Speaker 2 (11:28):
And I believe they there's a penalty here to be
a first in ten or actually a first in five.
Begg your pardon. For the Gophers at the thirty five
yard line, two receivers right, one on the left, didn't
see the flag, didn't catch the call, but nicking off
side there against Wisconsin, Logan Lola Lowyer, I should say

(11:48):
slot right, motions left in the receiving corps, playfake Lindsay
pressured flushed to his right, and he will throw on
the run, pass cut and then drop the jard Lewis
intended for Tracy getting over there for Wisconsin was Austin
Brown out of the secondary and it's second and five
for the Gophers at their thirty five yard line.

Speaker 8 (12:10):
A really good rush, but unfortunately riger again he has
beaten his the right tackle inside that time. Both guys
got it, and Austin looks like on that jarring hit
and he rattled his leg a little bit.

Speaker 2 (12:22):
Yeah, he was limping going back to the defensive set
and then went to the ground and he's favor of
that right leg and he is going to be hopping
off the field. So you go back to this secondary
for Wisconsin all the way back to the Alabama game
when Preston Zachman was hurt in that game against the Tide,
and they've not seen him since. And now Austin Brown

(12:44):
is out. You've got Matt Young of course in the secondary,
and Cairo's Skens will work alongside at the safety spot.
Freshman on Asheville, North Carolina. So it's second down and
five for the Gophers at their thirty five yard line.
Lindsay under his center Ashton Bears Darius Taylor is the

(13:06):
running back. As Lindsey pulls back hands at the Taylor
probed in the right side across at thirty five, drives
up across the forty yard line and has pulled down
at the forty two and a first down on a
gain of seven.

Speaker 8 (13:17):
That first run play, and it was just an outside
zone play to the right, and actually it Cooper Catalano
was there. He got held a little bit, but a
nice job by their center getting up on the linebacker.

Speaker 7 (13:28):
Kind of held Cooper. He didn't something he'll.

Speaker 11 (13:30):
Have to learn.

Speaker 7 (13:30):
Got to throw your arms up in the air, get
the ref to see it.

Speaker 2 (13:32):
Pre receivers left one on the right, first and ten
Gophers their own forty two yard line. Lindsay dumped it
over the middle. That's caught by Taylor, whipped to the
turf by Mason Posa at the forty five yard line
of the Gophers. A gain of three. You second down
in seven. We're two and a half minutes in Gophers
with the opening possession of the day.

Speaker 8 (13:49):
You can tell Minnesota they're gonna mix a run in
here and there. They're looking at this as they're going
to be an aerial attack today.

Speaker 2 (13:56):
On second down, shotgun snap, Lindsay looking again, umps at
offense Jamison Gears the tight end across midfield gets wrapped
up by Cooper Catalano and that'll be a first down
as Gears brings it to the forty seven of Wisconsin.

Speaker 7 (14:09):
And they're going tempo.

Speaker 8 (14:11):
And one of the things when you get this sloppier
field and Mason Ryger's been able to get off on
that count, being able to get some pass rush a
little tougher.

Speaker 2 (14:19):
For d Lineman with the Badger forty seven first down
and the hand off to Taylor trying the right side,
not much. He gets maybe a yard to the forty six.
Matt Young up off the stack, help from his teammates,
gain of the yard to the forty six of Wisconsin.
Second down and nine for the Gophers.

Speaker 8 (14:35):
Now, good job by the front there of reading it,
seeing understanding what Minnesota was doing, and then pinching down,
not giving up that run lane like we saw on
the other carry of the day so far.

Speaker 2 (14:48):
Lindsey brings him up, he'll go back under center. Two
receivers out tied to the left, Javon Tracy to the right,
single set back as Darius Taylor lay clock. Is it six?
Is Lindy gets some set, takes the snap, he'll hand
a Taylor off the right side, runs into Catalano and
posta there as well, But it was Catialano bringing it

(15:10):
a gain of a yard. That's it for Darius Taylor,
and it's third and eight for the Gophers line of
scrimmage the Wisconsin forty five.

Speaker 8 (15:16):
I'll tell you what that is. Where a great veteran understood.
After Minnesota went to check, Ben Barton went and told
Corey walker, it's coming right, widen out, so he widens
out and then that pinches the running back back in.
Ben knew where that ball was going. Everybody pinched down.
That's just great understanding in film study.

Speaker 2 (15:35):
And now the Gophers have a third and eight at
the Wisconsin forty five. Three receivers putting the tight end
to the left and on out to the rights. Lindsay
back in the shotgun, takes the snap. Badgers bringing four
left side pass at its incomplete, nowhere close to Lamechy
Brockington at the thirty five of the far side. So

(15:55):
it's fourth and eight Minnesota at the Wisconsin forty five
yard line.

Speaker 8 (16:00):
It looked like it was Christian Allegro bringing a little
bit of pressure there, getting in Lindsay's face and making
that throw.

Speaker 7 (16:05):
That was a long, hard, difficult throw.

Speaker 8 (16:08):
You're talking about hash to the far sideline and with
a Legro getting in there putting a little pressure on him,
that ball fell well short of where he was trying
to get it to.

Speaker 2 (16:17):
So the golfer's punting, Tom Weston from Australia out there
to punt line of scrimmage the Wisconsin forty five Tyrell
Henry deep at the Wisconsin eight yard line and the
snap is clean and the kick is away, end over end,
drifting to his left as Henry, he will let it hit.

(16:38):
As it hits the sideline, people falling out, port staff
getting getting drilled, it goes out of bounds of the
nine yard line of Wisconsin. That there's a thirty six
yard punch and we will have a break in the
action here in Minneapolis. See how Eliot Energy is building

Build your Career Joined one three nine dot com.

Speaker 7 (19:20):
Well all games.

Speaker 8 (19:22):
Ball security is a huge thing, but especially when you
start getting into this type of weather conditions and with
both teams I think offensively going to maybe have a
difficult time moving the football today we saw a couple
of drops already that center quarterback exchange turnovers are always
going to be the key to the Keys to the game,
but especially when you factor the weather in the field

(19:43):
and all the conditions that these guys are going to
be dealing with today.

Speaker 2 (19:46):
Kerry Cadon go as we mentioned getting to start at
right guard like a lot last week against Illinois, the
Everson Mandel right tackle. You got Brunner and Mouldon on
the left side. Davis Hinzen is the center and Darian
gets to call it running back. Badger's starting at their
nine yard line for more than four and a half
minutes gone by no score. First possession for the Wisconsin offense,

(20:08):
Chris Brooks wide Wright motions to the formation. Smith out
of the shotgun, gets the snap. He'll handed Dupree and
he gets wrapped up by Devin Eastern and the backfield.
Dupre spill the back of the seven yard line on
a loss of two second down and twelve.

Speaker 8 (20:26):
And that was a big concern coming into this game.
Their nose tackle.

Speaker 7 (20:30):
He is a very good football player, and you're.

Speaker 8 (20:32):
Going against Davis Heinzen, who who has been battling and
competing at.

Speaker 7 (20:36):
That center spot.

Speaker 8 (20:37):
But I would think that you're gonna probably want to
give a little bit of help on these outside zones
because you saw right there easy penetration and a loss
of two.

Speaker 2 (20:46):
Smith will go under center. Now, Jackson Aker in at
full back, Dupre the tailback. They're offset Lance Mason to
tight end motions to the formation and off Dupre off
the right side across the ten yard line and gets
tripped up, but falls forward does Dupre to the fourteen.
That brings up third and five.

Speaker 8 (21:02):
And that was the case where you kind of fake
that hard zone to the right and a little cutback
right off of eastern who who was penetrating hard off
off of the right guard, and a nice cut there
by Dupree seeing it and being able to go pick
up some positive yards and setting.

Speaker 7 (21:16):
Up a third and five.

Speaker 2 (21:18):
Badger's just thirty two percent on third down last in
the league. But if you were recall last week, they
were hitting on those third downs, especially in the opening
possession of the game. Chris Brooks and Dupree come out
to the rights, three out to the left, empty in
the backfield for the moment, Lance basing the tight end
motions right and Smith calls his own number across the

(21:38):
fifteen across the twenty at Carter Smith picks his way
across the twenty to the twenty three yard line, first
down Wisconsin as Carter Smith to the Badger offense delivering
on third down.

Speaker 7 (21:50):
Just a really smart play call by Grimes.

Speaker 8 (21:52):
They're not going to put the ball in harm's way
in great patience by Carter Smith. A lot of times
you run a quarterback draw, you get to your drop
and you want to go well, he allowed Malman to
wash his guy down and have the patience to bounce
that get vertical and picked up the first down.

Speaker 2 (22:08):
Tucker Ashcraft comes out slot to the right, Eugene Hilton
why to the right, two receivers out to the left
on first down taking the toss to the left of Smith.
Now back to throw flush to his left, looking and
he'll throw it away in complete. The pressure was on
from Anthony Smith, who has ten and a half sacks
this season. Good decision there for Carter got outside the pocket,

(22:28):
just threw it away at second and ten.

Speaker 8 (22:30):
Exactly what I was just thinking. It's growth. You're looking
for this earlier. This is only his third start. You're
looking to see, all right, what growth can we have.
He's taken sacks in that situation before and tried to
make maybe more than he needed to understand where you're at.
It was first down, pressure was coming. Don't force anything,
get rid of the football and move on to the

(22:51):
next play, and that's what he did.

Speaker 2 (22:52):
Eight nineteen left in the first quarter. We have no score.
Play clock is at five. Badgers just getting up to
the line. They're gonna need time out and they'll get it.
And it was slow to get out of the huddle
as the Badgers will burn one here with eight nineteen
left in the first quarter of play, first charge timeout
and we will take a break with them. Drive on Wisconsin.

(25:37):
in the first quarter, no score, the Badgers will have
a second and ten of their twenty three yard line.
They just use their first time out of the half.

Speaker 7 (25:44):
And that was the case.

Speaker 8 (25:45):
So it just was complimenting Carter Smith on kind of
that decision making. He took a good shot and he's
on the ground and I think maybe a little take,
took a little time to get up.

Speaker 7 (25:54):
He was over there kind of by himself.

Speaker 8 (25:56):
And by the time you get back in there and
you get everything organized and you get to it, the
clock doesn't stop. You gotta get it rolling. That's just
another sign. I know it's tricky, but to get that
tempo and kind of keep that rhythm. Wisconsin unable to
do that and how to use it. Time out early
in this first quarter.

Speaker 2 (26:11):
I'll say this, Carter Smith has gone through some testers
here his third career start, his fourth game, man out
of Fort Myers, Florida, getting a pretty good dose of
the Upper Midwest.

Speaker 8 (26:23):
I got my family's down at Fort Myers, a lot
nicer down there.

Speaker 16 (26:26):
And here.

Speaker 2 (26:30):
Second down for the Badgers at their twenty three yard line,
Derry and du Pree Jackson acre in the backfield due
pre behind the quarterback Vinnie Anthony wide left heel, most
of the right of the shotgun snap went off of Vinnie.
It is loose and the problem with that has continued
to scramble for it a pile at about the twenty
two yard line. It's going to Minnesota. We have seen

(26:53):
this in the last few weeks where a shotgun snap
goes off the leg of the receiver and and this
time it comes back to bite Wisconsin.

Speaker 8 (27:04):
It's happened now, you know, very fortunate. Last week late
in the game it happened. You have a center in
there at it. You know he's not played a ton,
Vinnie Anthony. That's where you have to control your motion
man get it through and again that one hit Vinnie
right square in the hip, bounced around. Minnesota had a
hard time securing it, but they had five or six
guys there.

Speaker 7 (27:25):
Those are the mistakes that kill you.

Speaker 8 (27:27):
And you want to do all this jet motion, you
want to you know, test teams horizontally as well, you
want all that, but those are the things that needed
to get cleaned up.

Speaker 7 (27:35):
And this time we'll see how much it costs him.

Speaker 2 (27:38):
That was the cornerback John Nester who recovered it. He
missed last week's game against Northwestern, but now a big
chance here from Minnesota. First in ten at the Wisconsin
twenty two yard line, Drew Bibber, the tight end flips
to the left side of the formation, Malachai Coleman out
wide to the right on first down playfake rolling right

(27:59):
and a throw is kim blade one in Brockington at
the seventeen yard line of the air side. Drake Lindsay's
pass just sailed well beyond the reach of Brockington. And
at second and ten, Minnesota at the Badgers twenty two.

Speaker 8 (28:11):
And those key plays, I love them on every surface,
but they're really good there because it's really difficult you
have those linebackers and d Lineman selling out to stop
the run, you have to reset your feet and then
it's tougher to restart. That was a big miss by
Lindsay because he had him. That would have been a first.

Speaker 2 (28:28):
Down second in ten at the Wisconsin twenty two, single
back offense, Lindsay under center takes the snap hands of
Taylor off the left side. Jumping on his back is
Cooper Catalano at the twenty yard line. A gain of
two for Darius Taylor that brings up third and eight
for the Golfers at the Badgers twenty.

Speaker 8 (28:48):
A nice job by Corey Walker on that right side,
setting the edge and be able to kind of at
least get a swipe, and then Catalano sees it reads
that he's done a nice job of recognizing what is
going on.

Speaker 7 (28:59):
Cooper had a good job there, limiting him to a
two yard.

Speaker 2 (29:02):
Pickup Minnesota thirty eight percent this season. On third down,
two receivers right, one on the left. Taylor they running
back well the Wisconsin twenty yard line where it's third
down and eight. Snapped de Lindsey and swings it to
the right, caught by Javon Tracy and he's belted by
Jamir Latimer at the line of scrimmage. Good play by
the nickel in the Wisconsin secondary Latimer, and it's fourth

(29:26):
down and the field goal team comes on full of
the Gophers.

Speaker 7 (29:29):
Yeah, great recognition again.

Speaker 8 (29:30):
And I was wondering what is Minnesota gonna do on
third and long because we saw what this group did
to Illinois. Illinois offensive line is better than what Minnesota
has and they are going to struggle to block the
edge again today They're gonna run screens. Great job of
recognizing getting there and this defense to make a critical stop,
hoping to hold him to nothing.

Speaker 2 (29:50):
Here, Brady Dennaberg will attempt a thirty eight yard field goal,
a little rider center didn't hit it well. It's wide
left and short. He struggled last week a couple of
attempts and misses here as the Badger defense delivers after
the turnover, keeping Minnesota off the board. And that was

(30:11):
Ben Button getting a hand in there yet again on
special teams. Another big play by Big Ben. We'll take
a break for the rail Transport broadcast booth six forty
seven left of the first quarter. The Badgers and Gophers
no score. This is Badger football from lear Field.

Wisconsin Football brought to you by Rail Transport for every
mile of your truck driving career. Learn more at rail
dot Jobs. Another block field goal from Ben Barton, a
couple of them four in this season. We stay scoreless,
six forty seven left in the first quarter. Snow continues
to fall, Patrick getting a little nastier by the minute,
it seems down there.

Speaker 9 (32:25):
Yeah, that block field goal is so important because points
are going to be really hard to come by, the
worse this weather gets. That's the third one of Barton's
career that he has tipped on a field goal. But
remember what I said about the heated field, maybe not
allowing accumulation. Forget that that's out the window. They have
now taken shovels at each time out and they're walking
the lines of each of the yard lines and down

(32:46):
the sidelines to make sure it's cleared off. At the
last time out, they had a fan contest to kick
a field goal and they had to be out there
kind of brushing off a spot for them to get
their footing down there. So as this continues, and I
think the snow, oh, it's probably picked up since the
game even started, it's gonna get mess here and messire
yet again. Why blocking that field goal and keeping those

(33:07):
three points off the board.

Speaker 2 (33:08):
It's vital, boy, that was huge Minnesota recovering a fumble
at the Wisconsin twenty two and did nothing with it.
So now the Badgers started their twenty first and ten
six minutes forty seven seconds left of the first quarter.
No score here in Minneapolis. Badger's come out trips to
the left. Arian Drewpree is the running back, Puter Smith

(33:28):
out of the shotgun. He gets to Stafford Davis. Heinzen
back with row polls it down, wants to run across
the twenty up the right hatch marks and gets brought
to the turf at the twenty three yard line, a
gain of three for Parter Smith. Second down and seventh
for the Badger.

Speaker 8 (33:44):
It looked like another design quarterback run or he had
one read looked over there, didn't see it and just
wisely pulled the football down, picked up positive yards on
first down. I was able to get it. You talk
complimentary football. I went talked with Luke before the game
last week. Executed perfectly. When your offense makes a mistake
like they did, defense makes it stop.

Speaker 7 (34:06):
Special teams holds up its end of the donkey as well.

Speaker 2 (34:08):
You have an eastern on that last tackle for Minnesota
two in the backfield, now to pre to the right,
Kackahuna to the left through pre now shifts to the
left and on second down, shovel pass Lance Mason up
them and look across the twenty five yard line and
he'll twist his way to the twenty six. Maverick Bereanowski,
their linebacker for the Golfers, makes the tackle. It's third

(34:29):
and four.

Speaker 8 (34:29):
Pretty good job by Baranowski reading that we've seen this
and that play was very successful. I think it was
Jackson Acre a few weeks ago where they're really loving
that fake toss. So they're trying to get everybody pulled
off to the side and leave that middle of the
field open and then sneak your guy back in with
a little shovel. That time Baranowski read it was able
to get him down, setting up a third and four.

Speaker 2 (34:48):
Here, Geene Hilton, along with Mason and ash Crafts come
out to the Reichs winning Anthony to the left, Jackson
Aker the run back Quartersmith quarterback draw and fighting for
the first down. He has stopped short, got belted by
Coy Parridge, and they're gonna market of the twenty sixth

(35:09):
of Wisconsin. So the Gophers bow up and the Badgers
forced the punt, and the line of scrimmage will actually
be the twenty seven of Wisconsin, and now Sean West
will have his first punt of the day. Parridge is
deep for the Gophers.

Speaker 8 (35:23):
So I like a very conservative I'm trying to be smart,
but you know, at some point we.

Speaker 7 (35:28):
Are gonna have to throw the football there.

Speaker 8 (35:30):
The quarterback draws we've been successful on one. Minnesota is
catching on to what Wisconsin is doing.

Speaker 2 (35:36):
Parrot's standing of the twenty eight of Minnesota. Line of
scrimmage is the twenty seven of Wisconsin. Good snap and
the kick from West. It hangs up there, parrots drifting
under it, and he'll make the fair catch at about
the thirty two yard line Minnesota territory. It was a
forty yard punch from Seawn West, Who's averaging a bit
better than fifty yards per punt this season. Wisconsin football

To you in part play hope you on Gaming Wisconsin
Dell' is the best place for growing up, entertainment, games

ten seconds for station identification ten for an ID. This
is badger football from lear field snow coming down with
a bit more intensity. For thirty two left of this
first quarter, Wisconsin and Minnesota no score. The Gophers will
take over at their thirty two yard line.

Speaker 8 (38:24):
And obviously we're gonna look back as this game continues
to unfold, and there's gonna be turnovers. There's already won
by Wisconsin, and how you overcome that and what you
can do Minnesota starts at the twenty. After that turnover,
you make the big stop, you read the screen pass.

Speaker 7 (38:40):
You get out of it.

Speaker 8 (38:41):
And right now you just wonder Minnesota needs to throw
the football, I believe, and you wonder how successful they're
gonna be able to do there starting to go maybe
a little bit more to the run game.

Speaker 7 (38:51):
We've seen Lindsay miss a couple of easy throws.

Speaker 8 (38:54):
So really with these the conditions are even being a
bigger factor than maybe we thought coming into it.

Speaker 2 (39:00):
Femja boy in the backfield, right down, a toss to
him on first down, the running back running right across
a thirty yard line. He'll try to move the stack
up to the thirty five and he does. Progress is
stop there as that was Catialano helping lead the charge
gain of three for Eja boy Rd Schert freshman out
of Pennsylvania. It's second down and seven for the Gophers.

Speaker 8 (39:21):
Yeah, and even just tossing the football you saw there,
it was more of a you normally.

Speaker 7 (39:25):
You want to kind of do it on a line
to give him.

Speaker 8 (39:27):
He had to kind of hold up and you know,
set kind of weighted let it play out. Wisconsin did
a good job of rallying to that football, limit him
to a three yard pick up.

Speaker 2 (39:36):
Well, the thirty five of Minnesota second down and seven,
two receivers left, one on the right shot guns Stampa
Lindsay back to throw quick pass right side, caught by
Javon Tracy that he is with out of bounds across
the forty yard line, and that was Deanna Hill progress
stopped inbounds and it's at the forty two and that
is the line to gain. It'll be a first down
pull of the Gophers.

Speaker 8 (39:56):
Another thing to watch today, Minnesota's gonna throw some quick outs,
tackling slippery conditions, making sure right they're a nice job
of getting him down on the ground.

Speaker 7 (40:04):
Even though he picked up a first.

Speaker 2 (40:05):
Down, Tracy out to the right with Deanna Hill on him.
Two receivers to the left. On first and ten, Lindsay
looks right throwing and that's caught by Frank Bierman. The
tight end gets popped out of bounds by Austin Brown
back in there. He was shaking up earlier this quarter.
It's a gain of about three. He's second down and
seven for the Gophers.

Speaker 7 (40:23):
That's safe again. First down. They're gonna throw the football
on that time.

Speaker 8 (40:26):
Wisconsin all over it read it and was able to
just knock him out for a limited game.

Speaker 2 (40:30):
Yeah, we'll call it a gain of two at the
forty five yard line. It is second down and eight
for Minnesota. Two receivers left each a boy is the
running back. Is Lindsay under center with the forty five
yard line Minnesota territory. Lindsey takes hands off each a

(40:51):
boy off the right side. Posa there and need some
help each a boy with a strong run after contact
across midfield to the nine of Wisconsin and it's third
down at about two now for the Gophers.

Speaker 8 (41:06):
Yeah, that was just a zone play to the right
and a pretty good job by their right guard on Suggs,
who is a mountain of a man to move. Was
able to just do enough walling off and as a
pretty good pick up there for Minnesota.

Speaker 2 (41:18):
Well the forty nine of Wisconsin. It's third down and
two for the Gophers. Lindsay back in the shotgun. Cam
Davis now the running back. They're gonna go wildcat. They'll
move Lindsey wide right. Darius Taylor will be the wildcat QB.
He takes the snap, he will read it, keep it
running right. Peterson trying to pop them and it's close

(41:39):
to the first down. Help from Austin Brown. They need
the forty seven of Wisconsin. It looks like they got
there and it will be a first down for the Gophers.

Speaker 8 (41:49):
Yeah, dep did a good job of reading that was
unfortunately only able to kind of just swipe a right
arm and before reinforcements came.

Speaker 7 (41:56):
In, he was able to just barely pick up the
first down.

Speaker 2 (42:00):
Thirty five in counting left to the first quarter, no score.
First in ten Minnesota at the Wisconsin forty seven yard line.
Is the field closer and closer to being covered with snow.
Two receivers tight left, one wide right. Here's the handoff
to Darius Taylor and inside the forty five whip to
the turf. Mason Posa over there for Wisconsin, they'll mark

(42:21):
at the forty three of on a gain of four
second down and six.

Speaker 8 (42:26):
Mason saw that shot the gap and actually I thought
for a second he didn't wrap up, initially shouldered him,
but then did bring his arms and got him down.

Speaker 2 (42:34):
Get back on the ball. Shot Then Stampa Lindsay quick
toss left side and a diving catch made by Malachai
Coleman inside the forty to the thirty nine yard line.
Riccardo Hallman over there, and it's third down and two
for Minnesota at the thirty nine yard line, Wisconsin territory.

Speaker 8 (42:51):
And I would think here, if you're looking at it
from a PJ flex standpoint, probably four down territory, it's
a third and two, So I would not I would
expect them to look at this as two potential plays
to pick up two yards.

Speaker 2 (43:03):
So for it's two out of four so far in
this first quarter. On third down, final half minute of
the opening quarter, various Taylor's goes in motion left to
right hand off eachya boy and fighting for the first down.
Looks like he'll have it. At about the thirty seven
of Wisconsin is getting a little more challenging to figure

(43:23):
out what yard line they're on.

Speaker 8 (43:25):
You can see, you can see the linesman's Yeah, it's
like a golf pot.

Speaker 7 (43:28):
You can read it. Yeah, he's waving them through. Yeah,
real scientific spot there out.

Speaker 2 (43:33):
Yeah looks close enough, close enough, and that'll be the
end of the first quarter here in Minneapolis. Defense the
name of the game here so far, and not much
of a surprise, especially given the conditions right now. Brew

Speaker 17 (45:46):
Mike Heller with a quick scoreboard update here at scoreless
entering the second quarter. Earlier today, Ohio State closes out
a perfect regular season twelve and oh nine to zero.

Speaker 7 (45:55):
In the Big Ten.

Speaker 17 (45:56):
They win twenty seven to nine at the Big House
in Michigan. Julians say in two hundred and thirty three
yards three touchdowns in that game. Combined with Indiana's blowout
win at Purdue, those two will meet in the Big
Ten Championship next week, both at twelve and zero, both
at nine and zero, and gonna be number one and
two in the rankings.

Speaker 7 (46:14):
Games going on right now.

Speaker 17 (46:15):
In of interest, Oregon leads three to nothing late in
the first quarter on the road at Washington, Oklahoma. Now
they're eighth ranked in the country. They lead at home
against LSU three nothing. In Tennessee leads against Vandy that one,
seven to nothing late in the first quarter.

Speaker 2 (46:31):
It'll be interesting, Mark, we were talking about that last
night Ohio State in Indiana the Big Ten Championship game.
Does the loser still get a buy That's the question.

Speaker 7 (46:41):
I would think.

Speaker 29 (46:42):
So.

Speaker 8 (46:43):
What you can't do is punish people for being undefeated.

Speaker 7 (46:46):
Going to a championship game.

Speaker 8 (46:48):
Yeah, so I understand that there's a lot of teams
that are I don't think when you look at what
Indiana was able to do and obviously what Ohio State
was able to do, unless it's a route city, USA,
would think both of those teams would deserve to be
in a buy and have an opportunity to host or
to get in there and not have to play in

(47:08):
that first round.

Speaker 2 (47:09):
You would think it'll be quite the atmosphere Indiana appearing
in it for the first time, and then what they
have done with Kurtzignetti has just been astounding. But that
should be a joint should be jumping down at Lucas
Oil Stadium and credit to the fans who are here
today is the snow continues to fall grounds true Ground's
crew beg your pardon, doing good work during these media timeouts,

(47:32):
shoveling the field as best they can.

Speaker 7 (47:35):
Oh, I thought, so that's not a fan contest. Hey,
come on down, you can show I want to thrill.
You can clean the ten yard line.

Speaker 2 (47:42):
If if you pay X amount, well lets you shovel.

Speaker 7 (47:46):
That's beautiful.

Speaker 2 (47:48):
So the Gophers now go right to left as we
see at first intend at the Wisconsin thirty seven yard line,
Javon Tracy Lenecki Blockington out to the right now like
I call him into the left and a play fakeal
in under some pressure and Christian Allegro, we'll get a
sack outside the forty yard line Wisconsin territory.

Speaker 8 (48:07):
Oh, great job there, and again really good work on
kind of keeping the levels of the pass rush. You
got a little bit of pressure early on a rock inside.
Allegro is coming late, bows up on his running back
and then retraced his feet to come back and get
Lindsay down on the ground. Good work in Unison with
that group and Allegro was able to finish it.

Speaker 7 (48:27):
I love that little Rocky. Can't really tell with the snowfalling.

Speaker 8 (48:30):
I wish you would have put some different colors on
his cast, but we saw it was him.

Speaker 2 (48:34):
Yeah, a big old club on the left hand. Yeah,
he's got the rocky punch going well out the forty
one of Wisconsin's second down in fourteen for the golfers,
Lindsay under center and a draw play Darius Taylor trying
to cut to his left inside the forty yard line
and he was caught from behind by Mason Posa, his
only motor. It's high end Mason Posa making the play
a game of two to the thirty nine of wisconsinent'ce

(48:57):
third down and twelve for Minnesota.

Speaker 7 (48:59):
Just good cognition.

Speaker 8 (49:00):
Again, you're in a second and long after the sack
and you kind of are realizing what is going on,
and you take your drop and then it's slippery out
and he gets kind of by the first level, but
you're able to get him down and now the boys
can go hunt on third and twelve.

Speaker 2 (49:14):
Also are Austin Brown actually on that last tackle, Walt
the thirty nine of Wisconsin third down and eleven. Javon
Tracy wide left motions to the right. Three receivers on
that side of the field. Darius Taylor is the running back.
Day clock is at five. Lindsey calls for the ball,
gets the snap, Badgers bringing four. Lindsey under some pressure
flush to us. Right here comes Rger backside, Darryl Peterson

(49:38):
as well, and they drive Lindsey out of bounds at
about the thirty seven yard line of Wisconsin. So those
are days we've been saying a whole lot. Mason Riger,
Darryl Peterson, and they both were in hunt pursuit of
the quarterback who raced to the boundary, and it's fourth
down for the Gophers inside the forty yard line of Wisconsin.

Speaker 7 (50:01):
A great job there.

Speaker 8 (50:02):
He ended up kind of giving up the giving up
the edge and allowed Lindsay to get out. But the
great closeout speed both by DP and by Ryger're able
to get them down on the ground and force Minnesota
to punt the football away.

Speaker 2 (50:15):
Line of scrimmage. The thirty seven of Wisconsin. Tom Weston
is on the punt tyrrel Henry deep at the ten
yard line. Snap clean, pressure, light and the kick is away,
sailing to the left of Henry, and it will hit
out of bounds and it'll get the coffin corner inside
the five win a little old school coffin corner, and

(50:37):
it goes out of bounds at the two yard line.
So a field position game it is, and the Badgers
are backed up here early in quarter number two. Fans

Speaker 2 (52:50):
Adrew's up against it at their own too yard line,
first to ten, early in the second quarter. Let's go
downstairs to Patrick.

Speaker 9 (52:56):
Offensive coordinator Jeff Grimes was asked about Carter Smith's develop
in this week, and he said he's starting to see
him come out of his freshman mold a little bit.
From a leadership standpoint, He's starting to really kind of
spread his wings and talk more, be more vocal in
the huddle and just captaining this offense.

Speaker 4 (53:13):
Luke Fikel was asked what do you say to him
in his first AX game? He says, take care of
the ball, Take care of the ball, take care.

Speaker 5 (53:19):
Of the ball.

Speaker 4 (53:20):
Never more and more important than right here on your
own two.

Speaker 2 (53:22):
Boy, don't kidd it. He'll work under center Jackson Acre
Darian Dupree in the straight eye formation on first down
and the handoff goes to Acre, bangs his way up
the middle to about the four yard line. Devin Eastern
up off the pile Anthony Smith as well. Game of
two for Acres, second down at eight poll the Badgers,
they move left to right in the second quarter. Yards

(53:45):
hard to come by, to say, the least twenty three
yards of offense now for Wisconsin, sixty three for Minnesota.
We're scoreless two and a half minutes into quarter number two.

Speaker 8 (53:55):
Yeah, you just want to get a little bit of
breathing room off the goal. And I don't think you're
going to be doing a lot of jets sweet fake action.
This is gonna be north south and.

Speaker 2 (54:03):
The shotgun now is Smith Aker to his left, dupre
to his right hand off Darrian Dupree trying to cut
it back across the five yard line. Dupree fights his
way near the ten. Floyd Perrich out of the secondary
makes the tackle and they'll place it at the ten
yard line. A big third and two now coming up
with the Badgers.

Speaker 8 (54:22):
That's a good hard run there by. Duprie, as a
little readop kind of kept it. Mesh point held it,
held it as long as he could, and Darien was
able to get north and south and get this thing
to be a manageable third down here.

Speaker 7 (54:34):
This is where you're really looking.

Speaker 8 (54:36):
You want to get two first downs, especially in a
field position game like this, Get a couple of first
downs and flip that field position back.

Speaker 2 (54:42):
Badgers were one out of two on third out of
the first quarter. Double Lye to the left Smith then
the gun takes the snap quarterback draw and he goes nowhere,
nothing doing. John Nester off the corner as it was
though they saw it coming, and the Badgers punting frohim
deep in their own territ It's fourth down and two.
Just shy the Wisconsin tent.

Speaker 7 (55:03):
I mean, I get it.

Speaker 8 (55:04):
I understand what Grimes is thinking. And you can't turn
the football over. But that's I think the fourth time
we've went with that. Minnesota has been onto it now
for the second or third time, and you're backed up.
So now we need a big time punt trying to
get this field position flipped.

Speaker 2 (55:20):
Sean West five yards deep in his own end zone.
Here's the Badgers punter, Coroy Perrich standing at midfield. Lee
be the long snapper, and we'll whistle here in a
false start. It looks like against Wisconsin, op been.

Speaker 10 (55:42):
Number forty six, half the distance of the goal forked out.

Speaker 2 (55:45):
That's the long snapper who flinched. So now the Badgers
will have a line of scrimmage of their five yard line.
Ten forty five left in the second quarter, no score.

Speaker 8 (55:57):
And this is where you get nervous out of I'm
a special team standpoint, because you have to make sure
you're protecting. If punter doesn't have his normal drop, then
you have a very good returner in.

Speaker 2 (56:08):
Perage less about nine yards into the end zone. Snap clean,
West steps up, kick is away, didn't hit it great,
needs a bounce. Parridge muffed it and now covers it
up at the thirty five yard line. He bobbled it
he let the punt hit the ground and then bobbled it.
But the Gophers will have very good field position at

(56:29):
the thirty five yard line of Wisconsin. First in ten Minnesota.

Speaker 8 (56:33):
Yeah, and I know there's no wind at least according
but I think the weather is to think the wind
is into him, and that's where that penalty and not
being able to get a couple of first downs.

Speaker 7 (56:42):
Give Minnesota credit.

Speaker 8 (56:43):
They punted from the thirty eight and they did the
great Coffin corner and now their offense has got a
chance to take advantage of it. And you're leaning on
this defense. Now, this is the second or third big
test you've put up so far.

Speaker 7 (56:56):
This defense has been up to the task.

Speaker 2 (56:58):
Punt officially thirty yards for Sean West and there is
a little kick to that wind out of the northeast
from the Badgers thirty five yard line. First and ten.
Taylor the running back playfake Lindsay to throw under pressure
floats at left, caught by Taylor and he is sent
out of bounds inside the thirty five yard line and

(57:21):
they'll mark at the looks like the thirty thirty two
yard line of Wisconsin. There's the snow falling as recovered
the field. It'll be a second down from the thirty
two of Wisconsin.

Speaker 8 (57:37):
Corey Walker a great job recognizing that he actually got
blocked and kind of grabbed so he couldn't intercept that.

Speaker 2 (57:45):
Taylor. They're running back Lindsay back under center, double y
to the rights, second down for the Wisconsin thirty two
yard line. Seven ago handoff, Taylor bangs off the left side,
Ben Barton closing the gate just inside the thirty They'll
mark at the twenty nine of Wisconsin, bringing up a
third down and four for the Gophers.

Speaker 8 (58:03):
Jap Ben did a good job of holding that point
of attack and not allowing him to kind of get
where he wanted to. Mason posta kind of hanging in there,
and you're just trying to hold up here and force
where there's either going to be a long field goal
or you're trying to get a lost yardage play here.
This is the interesting battle here on a third and five.
How conservative is Minnesota going to be? I'd be thinking

(58:26):
screen draw if I was Wisconsin.

Speaker 2 (58:29):
Call it the twenty nine of Wisconsin. Third down and
four plus change Frank Beer with the tight end motions
to the right hand off Taylor and he scorts through,
breaks one tackle inside the twenty, and Matt Young finally
wraps him up at the nineteen yard line. A lot
of traffic at the point of attack, but Taylor was
able to squirt through in a first down for Minnesota.

Speaker 8 (58:51):
Big tackle by Young there, because if he is not there,
that is a touchdown, and that's the thing you get
a little nervous about in those third downs.

Speaker 7 (58:57):
He was able to squirt out there. Young got him
for the nineteen yard line.

Speaker 2 (59:01):
First and ten shotguns snap Lindsay screen to the left,
Taylor the catch, and he gets driven down at about
the seventeen yard line. Beyonny Hill the corner over there
to make the play. Short game, second down coming up
four Minnesota.

Speaker 8 (59:15):
Both groups, both offenses being highly conservative running it on
third down, a lot of screen passes, some low risk opportunities,
and you're testing to see are there perimeter players going
to be willing tacklers so far, that's a nice jot
by Hill getting them down on.

Speaker 2 (59:31):
The ground and mark at the sixteen or seventeen yard
line of Wisconsin. Second down at about eight four, Minnesota
under center Lindsey hands off the EGA boy hits it
off the left side and he gets popped. Mason Posa
getting in there for Wisconsin, just inside the fifteen of Wisconsin.

(59:52):
It will be a third down and about five for
the Gophers. They'll place at the fourteen of Wisconsin. Seven
forty three in counting left in the second quarter. We
have no score. Much of this game has been played
in Wisconsin territory so far this afternoon. Ducky Brockington comes

(01:00:13):
out to the right, couple of the tight ends there
with them, Jabon Tracy to the left, Drew Bibber the
tight end. We'll flip to the left side of the formation.
Lindsey back under center. Eja Boy is the running back
for the fourteen yard line Wisconsin territory. Lindsey takes hands
off each of Boy and nothing doing at the point
of attack. Brandon Lane right there to slam the door.

(01:00:34):
Big play by Lane, no game, in fact, the loss
of one to the fifteen yard line and the Gophers
will settle for another field goal try.

Speaker 8 (01:00:42):
And again a very conservative play call. Weather's obviously dictating
some of that, and Lane did a great job of
just holding the point, reading it and then getting downhill
and forcing another TfL and you're putting a kicker in
another tough spot here to try and get the first
points of the game.

Speaker 2 (01:00:59):
On the Brady Denniberg a thirty three yard field goal
try tried one of the first quarter. Ben Barton blocked it.
Wise are down, snap, all down, the kick is away
and it is good for the first points in the game.
Go to Minnesota on what is officially a thirty three
yard field goal from Brady Denniberg and the Gophers graph

twenty yards to three minutes, fifty four seconds. Brady Deneberg
with a thirty three yard field goal for the first

(01:03:40):
points of the game. We have six thirty two left
of the half. Minnesota three, Wisconsin nothing.

Speaker 8 (01:03:45):
In days like this where it's gonna be very limited
offensively and you're gonna be conservative, special teams are obviously
going to be critical. And that was the case there
where Minnesota does a fantastic job of kind of pinning
Wisconsin down at to Wisconsin gets out, it gets a
little bit of breathing room for its punter, has the

(01:04:05):
false start, then a poor punt and because that was
what would you say, twenty yard drive to get the points.
Points are going to be at a premium today. So fortunately,
even though the snaps, Minnesota has dominated the field position
and the time of possession so far, that blocked field
goal is going to loom large and you're only down three,

(01:04:27):
even though you've really not been able to get your
teeth into this game.

Speaker 2 (01:04:30):
Offensively, Minnesota has run thirty plays to Wisconsin's eleven. Eighty
three yards of offense for the Gophers twenty eight for
the Badgers. Denniburgh set to kick off four Minnesota. Betty
Anthony and Kid Yakamelly are deep. Man the kick in

(01:04:51):
the air, Yakamelly backs up, lets it hit, It'll go
into the end zone and dribble out of the air
for the touch back of the Badgers start at their
twenty five yard line.

Speaker 8 (01:05:00):
Get the sense someone is going to make a big
play in the return game today. I you know, obviously
Minnesota has a good return of Vinnie Anthony has been,
you know, the big He had the big play in Alabama,
and he's got had some opportunities, So that's gonna be
I think something to watch is this and.

Speaker 7 (01:05:14):
Whoever can make those big plays.

Speaker 8 (01:05:16):
So far, Minnesota has been able to kind of win
that punting battle and that's what's given them a three
point lead.

Speaker 2 (01:05:23):
You feel like maybe a short play, somebody slips a
short pass turns into a big play. Let's see Parter
Smith out there in the shotgun, Eugene Hilton slot left,
motions to the right, three receivers out side of the formation.
On first and ten, Staff the Smith takes the handoff,
rolling to his right, rolling rolling and caught from behind
trying to throw it away, and they'll they'll give him

(01:05:44):
the incomplete pass as backside pressure coming from Maverick Bereanowski.
I wasn't sure. I thought Smith might have been down first,
but they rule incomplete and it's second and ten for
the Badgers at their twenty five yard line.

Speaker 8 (01:05:58):
I think he got it away. I'm sure if it
close enough, they'll take a look at it. But Barnowski
closed that gap quickly and Carter Smith again recognizing it
was able to it. Looks like get rid of that
football before his knee hit the turf.

Speaker 2 (01:06:12):
He's got Jackson Aker to his left. Dupree is behind
quarter Smith. On second down, Smith takes the hand all
throws to the left and that's caught by Vinnie. Anthony
fikes his way up the sideline, across the thirty five
and up to the thirty seven yard line. John Nester
got a hand on him, but Vinnie able to get
the first down on a gain of twelve.

Speaker 7 (01:06:31):
And that's kind of what you're just talking about, Matt.

Speaker 8 (01:06:33):
You just get the ball in your playmaker's hands and
let's see because you're gonna see the box stack because
everybody's gonna be running the football. You're gonna have some
opportunities out on the perimeter, and can your guys tackle
our guys because all it's gonna take is one or
two that maybe it doesn't happen. You get that big
chunk play.

Speaker 2 (01:06:51):
Two receivers left, one on the right, Dupre the running
back from the thirty seven yard line, Wisconsin Territory, shotgun
stapped to Smith Reads keeps throws shot play left side.
It's incomplete, well over Tretch Kakahuna at the forty yard
line of the far side, and he was available with

(01:07:11):
the pass just sailed well beyond him. Second and ten
for the Badgers at their thirty seven.

Speaker 8 (01:07:16):
That great play design, and you know, you see Wisconsin
now kind of coming out of its shell a little
bit trying to throw the football, and that kind of
shows you why maybe you're not doing a lot of it.
Because Tretch was wide open, Carter missed it, missed it
by a little bit.

Speaker 2 (01:07:31):
Gerry and du Pree motions to the right. They'll hand
it to now, shoots it back up the middle, fights
his way up to about the forty yard line, maybe
the forty one. It'll be a third down quarter Len
Carter Men's I should say, makes the tackle. It's a
gain of three to the forty of Wisconsin. Third down
and seven for the Badgers with five twenty five left

(01:07:51):
and the half three nothing Minnesota.

Speaker 8 (01:07:53):
And a little different way to get to pre the
football there you run him almost looks like a chet motion,
getting him a full speed go. You got a good
look at it, and now you know third and seven.
This is where things get interesting. You want to how
aggressive are you gonna be? It seems like we're kind
of unlocking a little bit. We'll see what we do here.

Speaker 2 (01:08:11):
Thre receivers left, one on the right, Grover bort A
Lotti in the backfield. Then Anthony in motion left or right.
Shotguns snapped Smith Gophers bringing four Smith throwing over the middle.
That's caught by Kakahuna across the forty yard line and
he is pushed out of bounds by Devin Williams, the
linebacker at about the forty three yard line of Wisconsin. Territory.

(01:08:33):
Maybe the forty four, but it's short of the first
down man. The Badgers are forced apart with four forty
left in the second quarter.

Speaker 7 (01:08:42):
I like that play. You see the difficulty teams are.

Speaker 8 (01:08:46):
You know, Minnesota's gonna have a hard time rushing the quarterbacks,
so you're gonna have a little time to let some
of those underneath routes develop. That was the case where
you had it. Give Minnesota credit for rallying and getting
off the field well.

Speaker 2 (01:08:57):
At the forty four of Wisconsin. It's fourth and three
Paris deep for the golfers at the Minnesota ten. Snapped
to Sean West steps up and he shanked it off
the side of his foot at out of bounds inside
the forty five or maybe right at the forty five
of Minnesota. Soro Sean West, who's been really good this

(01:09:20):
year and again punning in the wind, bad conditions. We
flat out shank that and the golphers have good field position. Again,
We'll take a break. With four to twelve left in
the first half, Minnesota three, Wisconsin nothing back in the moment.
This is Badger football from lear Field.

Sean West with a shank that went just eleven yards
on his punt. We have four minutes and twelve seconds

(01:11:02):
left to the first half. Three nothing. Minnesota leeds Wisconsin,
and the Gophers will be starting at their forty five
yard line.

Speaker 19 (01:11:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:11:09):
He's been so good all year, obviously making plays and
punting the football, and in today's today's game, it's obviously
critical and you know, unfortunately now he's had two of
his worst punts.

Speaker 7 (01:11:21):
The defense was able to hold to a field goal.

Speaker 8 (01:11:23):
Here it's not quite in that same spot, but you
keep asking the defense to continue to make plays. This
has been what Wisconsin has done in the defense for
the most part, is held up. This is one of
those times where you would love to see them recapture
and get some of that momentum back with a turnover themselves,
because I do think you're gonna need to get a

(01:11:43):
short field and this defense has been able to provide
that at times this year.

Speaker 2 (01:11:47):
Drake Lindsey ten of fourteen of the passing department for
thirty five yards three and a half yards per completion.

Speaker 7 (01:11:54):
I thought that seems a little bit much.

Speaker 2 (01:11:56):
Actually, Darius Taylor on the ground nine carries for thirty
seven yards. Nothing easy in conditions like this. Where's the
grounds crew during the continuing to do the work during
the commercial breaks? All they can do to make the
yard lines visible.

Speaker 8 (01:12:15):
Somebody have to explain to me this whole heated coil
deal under the turf, because wouldn't you expect that to
melt the snow? If you would, great, it's definitely not
doing that.

Speaker 2 (01:12:27):
Three nothing in Minnesota because Lindsay and the Gophers offense
will take over. They move from our right to our left.
In the second quarter of play, Solon Tracy is out
to the right, Jalen Smith to the left. Now Lebecky Blockington,
who was in the backfield, breaks out. Why to the
right there was Taylor is the running back. You'll shift

(01:12:48):
to the left of Lindsay takes the snap. Badgers trying
to bring a little heat flush to his left as
Lindsay throws and it is caught short gain. That was
Smith on the catch at the forty nine yard line
of the ear side gain of four second down and six.

Speaker 8 (01:13:02):
Yeah, right about that three three and a half four
yard average that Lindsay's doing.

Speaker 7 (01:13:05):
But its just being smart with the football.

Speaker 8 (01:13:07):
And you're seeing a little bit of that pass rush
where initially I thought Wisconsin was able to get back there.
Now a little bit slower. You have to react because
of all the screens as well. You have to be
a little bit more patient, and that makes it that
much more difficult to play defensive line.

Speaker 2 (01:13:24):
Yell Mkey Brockington slot to the right from the forty
nine of Minnesota, second down and six. They were the
tight end motions right, A pass got the fleck of
to look like, but it's still caught across midfield into
Wisconsin territory. That was Joeln Tracy on the catch and
he gets driven to the ground at the forty nine
of Wisconsin a gain of two. It's now third down

(01:13:47):
and four. That was big perk Charles Perkins running him down.

Speaker 8 (01:13:50):
Had a baby perk way to hustle down that line
of scrimmage. And this is gonna be something you kind
of get the feeling with as many short dink and
dunks and screen passes, you know, with this d line
reading and starting to get a little more of a
vibe when that's happening. I wouldn't be surprised if one
of those big fellas makes a play today.

Speaker 2 (01:14:10):
Receivers left one on the right for the badger of
forty nine yard line on third down, Darius Tandler, the
handoff breaks through, he's loose down the right side of
the twenty to the ten to the five touchdown Minnesota
Darius Taylor forty nine yards and it's nine to nothing
the Gophers.

Speaker 7 (01:14:30):
That's what you're worried about. And in this spot, if
you can get by that.

Speaker 8 (01:14:33):
Initial little zone playoff to the right and Wisconsin unable
to get him down, it looked as if pretty good
job of covering up the down line.

Speaker 7 (01:14:42):
They got Ben Barton to the ground.

Speaker 8 (01:14:44):
Matt Young took a bad angle, and all it takes
is one guy to kind of take a bad angle
or to miss a tackle, and that's what happens in
these in these spots, Minnesota with a huge play there
to get to potentially that double digits that we've been
talking about.

Speaker 2 (01:14:58):
The Minnesota pat doing a good job of trying to
clear off the snow and give Brady Denniberg as clean
a look as he can for this extra point. Nine
to nothing Minnesota lake to the second quarter. The pat
is good. So there's the big play, the first really

(01:15:18):
big play, and unfortunately for the Badgers, it goes against
them as Darius Taylor a forty nine yard dash to
the end zone and with two forty five left of
the second quarter, it's now ten to nothing, Minnesota leading Wisconsin.
We'll keep it here.

Speaker 8 (01:15:33):
Yeah, the zone play to the right, and all it
takes is one or two guys not doing their job
or getting pinched off. And Minnesota's offensive line did a
good job there of covering up our down lineman, but
our linebacker got a little nosey, got caught up in
the wash, and then that left our safety Matt Young.
He just came down and maybe came down a step

(01:15:53):
too far and that let Taylor get outside of him.
Bounced it and then it was a foot race that
unfortunately he won in the end zone and gives Minnesota
a ten point lead.

Speaker 2 (01:16:03):
We're talking about a field position game, and this it
seems like the overwhelming majority of the snats have been
on Wisconsin's side of the fifty. Minnesota getting a coffee
corner punt earlier this quarter a couple of shanks from
Sean West right now Minnesota is able to cash in
and now a ten point lead for Minnesota.

Speaker 7 (01:16:24):
And it's also you can ask your defense.

Speaker 8 (01:16:26):
I kind of was alluding to it. You're gonna ask
your defense to make a stop and make a stop.
But when you continue and continue, you're putting them in
bad spots. It gets tougher and tougher. And that time
the defense did not answer the bell. Now you need
the offense to maybe recapture a little something, get some
positive vibes before the half.

Speaker 2 (01:16:45):
Edeburg with the kickoff and Vinnie Anthony will let it
sail over his head. Gophers had to cover just fifty
five yards in three plays, took about a minute and
a half. That's your scoring drive, brought to you by
your local Wisconsin board dealers. And after the touch back
of the kickoff, Wisconsin will start at it's twenty five
with two forty five left in the half. So there's

(01:17:05):
the two minute timeout plus two timeouts that Luke Fickle
has to use.

Speaker 8 (01:17:10):
And I don't think you can be I'm actually getting
my binos out here to see if Hunter Simmons is
going to be in the game, because that's kind of
been the way this has went, and it looks like
that is the case. So you don't have the luxury
and oh the conditions you need get a good play
here on first out, I think you need to go
down here and get some try and get some points.

Speaker 2 (01:17:29):
Garran Dupree to the left of the QB, Jackson aker
to the rights and the twenty five of Wisconsin first
and ten. Simmons play fake throws to the left caught
by Kekahuna and he gets it right away by the
cornerback John Nester at about the twenty eight yard line.
Maybe the twenty nine second down coming up for Wisconsin.

(01:17:49):
The'll say the twenty eight second down and seven.

Speaker 8 (01:17:52):
You know what I'd like to see here is a
little pump fake and go because that is they're jumping
that route. They understand that the conditions are tough, but
you have to take some chances here. Minnesota hyper aggressive
on the edge with their corners.

Speaker 7 (01:18:05):
I would love to see a double move.

Speaker 2 (01:18:07):
To three receivers to the left, one on the right
high shotgun snap pulled down by Simmons and throws a
dart that's too low for Kekahuna. Incomplete, but their USA
thank goodness for third and seven. That was good work
by Simmons on a shotgun snap that was high and hot.
Third and seven for the Badgers at their twenty eight

(01:18:29):
yard line.

Speaker 7 (01:18:30):
Yeah, that play had no chance from the jump the snap.

Speaker 8 (01:18:32):
Great job by Hunter just to grab that snap and
then just get rid of it. That was a comedy
of airs all the way around, and very fortunate get
the ball down, get it.

Speaker 7 (01:18:42):
Rid of it and go live to play another day.

Speaker 8 (01:18:44):
Here on third and six, Now this is critical because
you don't get it here the two minute ten out
in Minnesota, all of a sudden can start looking at
maybe getting points.

Speaker 2 (01:18:53):
Lay clock is at three at two at one snap
the Simmons, they get the playoff right side Vinnie Anthony
to catch down the sideline forty to the thirty, to
the twenty, to the ten and down here the five
yard line. Then mark at the four as Hunter Simmons
goes up top and Vinnie Anthony on the receiving end

(01:19:17):
first in goal, Wisconsin.

Speaker 8 (01:19:19):
What a beautiful throw and the pocket was there for Hunter.
Je nice job was stepping into it and Vinnie Anthony
beats his man immediately and picks up a huge play
before the two minute warning.

Speaker 2 (01:19:33):
I mean they just beat the play clock. We'll keep
it here at the two minute time out. A minute
fifty seven left in the first half. Ten nothing Minnesota,
but the Badgers are in the red zone. Brought to
you by kseih Vis at KIH dot com. Slash Badgers
sixty eight yards on the throw from Simmons to Vinnie Anthony.

Speaker 8 (01:19:57):
Yeah, and I'm looking to see if it was just
he beat his guy immediately. There was no pump fake again,
that protection was really good. You're talking about a third
and six, Minnesota not heating up Hunter Simmons. They playing
coverage and Vinnie just be I mean he was three
or four steps ahead. The ball delivered really well, a
lot of air under it to give Vinnie a play.

(01:20:17):
The safety unable to get over there in time to
close it, and then Vinnie was able to not only
make the catch but also pick up some nice yards
after a nice job by the crew to get that sidelines,
so we could see that he wasn't stepping out of
bounds and just a.

Speaker 7 (01:20:31):
Huge play boy.

Speaker 8 (01:20:32):
Did we need that, because, as you said, Matt, the
game clock was running a time clock was running down
You're very fortunate got the snap off with maybe one
second left. You get there and you don't have to
give the ball back. Now you're in a position to
get six points here and really kind of almost erase
what we just saw from Minnesota with their touchdown.

Speaker 2 (01:20:53):
Jay, I'm Jay McMillan finally caught Vinnie Anthony and kept
him from the end zone. The back will be at
the four yard line, first and goal with them minute
fifty seven left of the first half. It is ten
to nothing, the Gophers leading the Badgers, and let's go downstairs. Patrick.

Speaker 9 (01:21:12):
You know, there's been a lot of appreciation I've heard
in this last week for Vinnie Anthony and what he
represents to this team. This season has not gone the
way Vinnie or anybody in this receiving game would have
probably wanted. He entered this game with twenty nine catches
for two hundred and ninety nine yards. Not exactly gaudy numbers,
but he's a player that's on NFL radars because of
his speed, his athleticism and his ability to catch, and

(01:21:34):
maybe he just hasn't been able to demonstrate that. But
I heard Jeff Grime say this week that he actually
apologized to Vinnie and because they just have not been
able to showcase him of the way that he deserves to.
But what they appreciate about him so much is the
consistency with which he shows up every day. He's one
of those guys that always has a smile on his face.
And for some receivers who haven't been able to get

(01:21:55):
the ball, you know, that's a moody position, we'll say,
But for a guy like vinie't been that at all.

Speaker 4 (01:22:01):
And there's a reason he's a captain.

Speaker 9 (01:22:02):
He was out there for the opening coin toss today
and he's one of those guys you want to root
for because of the way he has handled it with
such mature playoff season, and it's fun to see him be.

Speaker 4 (01:22:11):
Rewarded like that last play in this game.

Speaker 2 (01:22:15):
It was And how about the work of Hunter Simmons
who did his work out of the bullpen. He turns
it back to Carter Smith. Now on first down and
goal they'll place at the five yard line, so Smith
back in at quarterback. But yes, Patrick said, a big
play for someone very easy to root for there in
Vinnie Anthony. First and goal Wisconsin at the five. Jaden

(01:22:38):
Ballard out wide to the rights, two receivers out to
the left, Tretch kicker Hunter and the slot now motions
to the right. Snap the Smith takes the handoff to Dupree.
Smith will run it off the right side, bangs his
way down to about the two yard line. Koy Perrich
on the tackle. Second in goal Wisconsin, a minute forty
five in counting left in the half.

Speaker 8 (01:22:58):
Nice read there by Carter to you know, pull that
and then just get vertical, making sure that he's securing
that football.

Speaker 7 (01:23:04):
His parents was coming to drill him.

Speaker 8 (01:23:07):
He is able to secure it, pick up the two
yards and continue to closer and closer for that touchdown.

Speaker 2 (01:23:13):
It's interesting Minnesota has all of its timeouts, but it's
not using them. A minute twenty three left and the
half Badgers of course a good in good shape, two timeouts,
but they don't need him. Play clock starting to wind down.
It's at five Smith getting him organized, and now Luke
Fickle's going to need a time out with a play
clock about to expire. So never mind what I just said.

(01:23:35):
You know, Minnesota had timeouts to burn in Wisconsin. It's
the second time they've had to call a timeout because
they just haven't gotten organized offensively. So a minute fourteen
left in the half, ten nothing Minnesota, second goal, Wisconsin
at the two.

Speaker 8 (01:23:50):
In this case, that's fine. They ran this clock down.
You actually you've probably ran a couple more seconds. Time
is not going to be a problem here with second down.
You want to make sure get the right play in,
make sure you're lined up correctly and execute the play
that you're calling here. Use that time out, recalibrate and
get in here. Find a way to get in get
in the end zone. I got gogl Jackson acer here.

(01:24:12):
If I was running this, get him that football at him.

Speaker 7 (01:24:15):
Plow ahead.

Speaker 2 (01:24:17):
Sounds like a plan to me, kind.

Speaker 8 (01:24:21):
Of hearkening back to Vinnie Anthony, it is really impressive
because here's a guy, he obviously has pro aspirations, and
you know, he had big plays a season ago, made
some big plays and this year and you're on your
fourth quarterback and he has just stayed the course. And
I think NFL scouts wild They would love to see

(01:24:41):
the gaudy numbers. They want to see how you respond
to things. He's obviously handled it well.

Speaker 2 (01:24:46):
Cristal formation dupri behind Smith, Keckahuna motions to the backfield.
Smith takes slings to the right, Kakahuna the catch and
he's brought down by Nestor and bounds at the two.
So they tried something a little different and nothing doing.
It's third in goal Wisconsin with a one minute in
counting left in the half. Ten nothing the Gophers.

Speaker 8 (01:25:07):
That was really well defended because Wisconsin put a lot
of pressure on Minnesota's defense.

Speaker 7 (01:25:12):
There the Reid option fake and then to roll out
and throw the football.

Speaker 8 (01:25:17):
They had people in position to make those to make
the play.

Speaker 7 (01:25:20):
Wisconsin put a lot of pressure on and they handled it.

Speaker 2 (01:25:26):
Smith brings them up with fifty six seconds left in
the half. The officials have stopped play. Here is that
the last play did go out of bounds, so that
stops the clock. But the play clock never started going seconds.

Speaker 10 (01:25:41):
The play clock needs to be set to forty seconds.

Speaker 7 (01:25:43):
It was erroneously set to twenty five erroneously.

Speaker 2 (01:25:47):
Okay, so they put one ten on the game clock.
They reset the play clock, and now the play clock
and game clock rolling. Actually any timeout, I'll take it
by Minnesota is the play clock never got rolling. But
Fleck using a timeout that was that was a pretty

(01:26:09):
weird time.

Speaker 7 (01:26:10):
What sure?

Speaker 8 (01:26:11):
Yeah, Now, all of a sudden it gives them because
Minnesota wasn't using a.

Speaker 7 (01:26:13):
Timeout, it was churning away. I don't know.

Speaker 8 (01:26:16):
That was completely mismanaged by everybody involved.

Speaker 2 (01:26:19):
Want book fickle trying to get some kind of an explanation.

Speaker 8 (01:26:23):
It should be forty or thirty seconds, and you gave
Minnesota a break.

Speaker 7 (01:26:29):
You know, luckily.

Speaker 8 (01:26:29):
I don't think it's gonna matter, but that that should
not happen. So I think this has got to be
four down territory.

Speaker 23 (01:26:39):
Uh.

Speaker 7 (01:26:40):
You know, it's third and two from the two year.
You don't know how many of these opportunities you're.

Speaker 8 (01:26:44):
Gonna get, and I know you try a little read option.
I want I want Carter Smith Carey into football here.
I want to get him out and let him read
it and go because they're gonna be.

Speaker 7 (01:26:55):
Pinching down trying to stop our run.

Speaker 8 (01:26:58):
You're either gonna give it to Acre right away and ediately,
or at Carter Smith greeting it and getting north and
south and getting in the end zone.

Speaker 7 (01:27:05):
That's what I'd love to see right.

Speaker 2 (01:27:06):
Here, Walls at the two yard line, right hash Badger's
moving to our right to the second quarter, one oh
four left to the left. In the first half, ten
tohering Minnesota and the Badger offense back out on the field.
Berry On Dupre lines up behind the quarterback. Baker will

(01:27:29):
motion into the backfield to the left of Smith. Kakahuna
slot right, motions left snap, the Smith hands off Dupri
and gets trilled at the one. Jackson Howard makes the
hit and it's fourth and goal clock running fifty three
seconds left in the half, and the offense will stay

(01:27:52):
on the field. So Tash, as you mentioned four down territory,
it is out of forty seconds play clock? Is it
twenty five fourth and goal Badger's sub Now the Gophers
will do the same fourth and goal Wisconsin. I still
call it actually just inside the two Smith under center

(01:28:13):
time out Minnesota with twenty seven seconds left in the
first half.

Speaker 8 (01:28:18):
So obviously you switch personnel groupings, and I've kind of
figured that Fleck was gonna see what it was. You
got twenty seven seconds left, get a gauge on what
it was, and now Wisconsin's gonna have to say, are
we gonna stick with this or are we gonna reswitch
up our personnel and put a little bit Now Minnesota
has a good look at what Wisconsin was thinking about doing.

Speaker 2 (01:28:38):
The defensive coordinator for Minnesota is Danny Collins. His first
year in that role, but he's been with Fleck a
long time, all the time at Minnesota, thirteenth year overall
with Fleck. So those two guys, you would think very
much on the same page. It's fourth in goal. They
market inside the two yard line, twenty seven seconds left

(01:28:58):
in a half. Ten nothing.

Speaker 8 (01:29:02):
Well, normally you're thinking, all right, we have to make
sure we get the down guys blocked, and that is true.

Speaker 7 (01:29:08):
But you gotta watch for old number three Parritch.

Speaker 8 (01:29:10):
Where is he he is gonna be They use him
to stop run support things.

Speaker 7 (01:29:16):
Keep an eye out where he's at.

Speaker 2 (01:29:18):
Smith under his center. Davis hinzen I backs Jackson Acer
Darion Dupree on fourth and goal Lance Mason. The tight
end motions left little playfake rolling right, Potter Smith in
trouble throwing acre and not able to make the catch,
trying to tight rupe that right edge of the end zone.
They say in complete and the Golphers hold with twenty

(01:29:42):
one seconds left till halftime.

Speaker 8 (01:29:45):
Yeah, they fake the heart zone play the left and
booted Carter Smith out. Minnesota did a good job of
covering that route that Jackson Acre a little under route.

Speaker 7 (01:29:55):
It was able to kind of get him I think
shove him out. I don't know. I think there's any
chance there doesn't look great. Force that issue out and
you forced.

Speaker 8 (01:30:05):
Carter to get rid of the football. Minnesota did a
good job of forcing the issue there.

Speaker 2 (01:30:09):
I think they're gonna review this.

Speaker 7 (01:30:11):
Yeah, let's take a look.

Speaker 10 (01:30:13):
The runner was out of the pass, receiver was out
of bount when he caught it. That play is under
for the review.

Speaker 2 (01:30:19):
Well, it's really close, and the question did he have control?
And when he got control, was he in bounds? And
with all the snow and the shoveling, I'm not sure
they're going to be able to overturn that.

Speaker 7 (01:30:34):
I don't know.

Speaker 8 (01:30:35):
What is the red in or is the red out
as the way, I don't know. And then there's snow
and there's white and there's maroon.

Speaker 2 (01:30:41):
And let's why they figure this out. Let's pause ten
seconds for station identification, ten for an ID. This is
badger football from layer field. It's gonna come down to
when did Jackson Acre get control? It looked like he
was doing a pretty good job of more or less
toe tapping that right edge of the end zone. It

(01:31:02):
is like it is Razor's edge. I mean, a terrific
effort from Acre in the midst of a little bit
of hand fighting that was going on with Maverick Bereanowski,
the linebacker. The question is did he have at least
one foot in bounds when he gathered at the call

(01:31:22):
in the field was incomplete, this review taking a little
bit of time. Twenty one seconds left and a half.
At the moment it's ten to nothing Minnesota.

Speaker 8 (01:31:32):
The one thing, obviously, he latches on and is shoving him,
and Jackson did a great job of at least fighting it.
I wonder if his right foot was out of bounds beforehand.

Speaker 7 (01:31:42):
It looked as if it's it is Razors clothes.

Speaker 8 (01:31:46):
I think if they had called this a touchdown, I
think they would have kept it. It's a lot closer
than it looked in real time. And the longer they're
under that hood, the better opportunity.

Speaker 5 (01:31:55):
We got.

Speaker 2 (01:31:58):
Such a big call. Some interesting play calls there as
they tried to pass for it. Tretch Keckahuna stopped on
third down and then a bootleg passed to Jackson. Acre
ruling on the field incomplete with this replay review still
going on, and here comes the verdict.

Speaker 10 (01:32:23):
After reviewing the play, the runner or the receiver had
both toes inbounds completed the process of the catch.

Speaker 2 (01:32:30):
Therefore, it is a touch Let's go. Here we go
a little touchdown Wisconsin. Took a while, but what worked
by Jackson Acre to have a foot in bounds. Wow,
and it's ten to six Minnesota with twenty one seconds
left in the half.

Speaker 8 (01:32:50):
Oh, I said, get the ball to Jackson Acre. I
was assuming we'd run a dive with him, but I
didn't know we had those twinkle toes. Being able to
get those feet in beautifully done, and what just competing
to do it. Great job by Jackson to make it close,
and a nice job by the officials getting it right.

Speaker 2 (01:33:07):
Nathaniel Vecos with the extra points. Man, the kick is
in the air and it is good. Twenty one seconds
left in the first half. Minnesota ten Wisconsin seven. The
scoring drive brought to you by your local Wisconsin Ford Dealers.

(01:33:28):
Seven plays, seventy five yards, took two minutes and eighteen
seconds as Carter Smith gets his second touchdown pass of
this season. But let us not forget the Hunter Simmons
to Vinnie Anthony sixty eight yard connection that created the
goal to go series for the Badgers.

Speaker 7 (01:33:49):
Yeah, that was obviously the critical playing that on a
third and.

Speaker 8 (01:33:52):
Six and Hunter Simmons coming in cold, literally and figuratively
and makes a perfect throat down the side. Vinnie does it,
gets him down there, and then in Minnesota made.

Speaker 7 (01:34:04):
Him earn it.

Speaker 8 (01:34:04):
Wisconsin grind and grind and a good decision. I love
the fact that Luke decided to go for it. You're
down there. They easy in a game like this, let's
get it to within one score. You understand it's going
to be tough sledding to get in position to score
seven points.

Speaker 7 (01:34:19):
You do that, and you found a way.

Speaker 8 (01:34:21):
Jackson Acre did just enough to compete to stay in
bounds and get this thing down to a three point game.

Speaker 2 (01:34:28):
Big time answer. And remember the Badgers will receive the
second half kick. There's still twenty one seconds left in
his first half? Is Vakos ready to send it on
its way? Cooy Parritch is deep and the ball falls
off the tee.

Speaker 7 (01:34:44):
Well, I'll tell you what. What is that? The middle eight?

Speaker 8 (01:34:45):
That's what everybody's been talking about all of a sudden.
It's kind of funny how that works. You start getting
a lot better at that, start winning some football games
straight at punchers.

Speaker 2 (01:34:54):
There that Darius Taylor touchdown run, and then the Badgers
had the answer and the ball just won't stay on
the team. Might need a holder here, and he'll get
in the snow. Yeah, to put it in the snow. Yeah,
Grant Dean, Well.

Speaker 7 (01:35:09):
I'll tell you what you know.

Speaker 8 (01:35:10):
As a holder, we need to make sure we give
some props to the grounds crew because if they don't
have that thing shoveled out, I don't know if you
can see it. So, boy, kudos to Minnesota's grounds crew
for getting us that touchdown.

Speaker 2 (01:35:20):
Well said all right, Grant Dean. Frushman out of Nino,
Wisconsin is serving as the holder. It's Veco sends this
kick in the direction of Minnesota across the twenty yard line.
Twenty five. Camp Davis gets belted at the thirty yard
line and the golfers will start there. With eighteen seconds

(01:35:41):
left in the first half, ten seven Minnesota.

Speaker 8 (01:35:45):
Yeah, and I would think Minnesota's gonna take a knee
and head in. And obviously, momentum is a heck of
a deal in all sports, college football rivalries, but especially
in this and you talk.

Speaker 7 (01:35:54):
Wisconsin gets the kick.

Speaker 8 (01:35:57):
You just felt like, had that not gotten overturned earned,
it was gonna be a real tough slog to overcome it.
Now of a sudden, you're heading in. You're gonna get
a nice cup of broth. You're gonna do that hot sider,
and you're gonna feel a heck of a lot better
about your chances in this second half.

Speaker 7 (01:36:14):
Go for a cup of hot broth right now.

Speaker 2 (01:36:16):
Yeah, yeah, I'm gonna come right there with you, all right,
and Lindsey will take a knee and that will be
the end of the first half. So a couple of
big plays, Minnesota gets one, Wisconsin answers with one. Jackson
Aker with some great footwork to get Wisconsin on the scoreboard.

In minneapolis It is minnesota Ten and. Wisconsin, seven currently
it's twenty, three degrees the wind chill is at, eleven
degrees and the field is snow covered. And slippery wisconsin
hitting on one significant offensive play in the, first half

(01:39:47):
and boy was. It big It Was hunter simmons coming
On with wisconsin taking over the ball on their last
first half possession with two forty five, to play and
they began at their own twenty five yard line and
trailing ten to nothing And His hunter simmons that stepped
into the game and on a third down in which
they if they, didn't convert they're gonna have to. Punt

(01:40:09):
again and it's been a mystery in the punting game
to try and get a, clean Kickoff and wisconsin hit
a sixty. Seven yarder they changed the official yardage on
the throw and catch and Run From hunter Simmons To.
Vinie anthony it goes for sixty seven yards and It

(01:40:29):
put wisconsin in position at the four, yard line but
it took four plays to get in the, end zone
and the, final play the Throw To, jackson acre which
goes for, two yards was ruled incomplete and a long
review in.

Speaker 7 (01:40:42):
A touchy review Worked.

Speaker 17 (01:40:45):
Four wisconsin they get the touchdown and they kicked the,
extra point and at the half it is ten. To
seven the statistics which were gaudy in Favor, of minnesota,
not big but a. Big separation now at, the half
it's one hundred and thirty seven year yards a total
offense For the gophers one twenty Two four wisconsin and ninety,

(01:41:05):
passing yards sixty seven of them coming on the, single
play just one turnover in the. First Half but wisconsin
in the punting game did not fare very well in the,
first half and that's a big difference right now in.
The game back to back punts of thirty yards and
then eleven Yards By sean west and That put minnesota

(01:41:28):
in position for both of their scores coming off of
short Punts by wisconsin in the. First half so at
the break It is minnesota Ten and. Wisconsin Seven the
badgers will begin the second half with the Football Our

Speaker 29 (01:49:30):

of snow but we do have, a HEATER and i
know we get to close the Window because toush won't
let you guys close that.

Speaker 17 (01:49:37):
Thing out so here's the, Thing Though billy taush's window,
Is closed Lepey and heller's windows.

Speaker 7 (01:49:43):

is building up in the middle is at.

Speaker 1 (01:49:49):

Speaker 29 (01:49:51):
Out there i'm glad you put that, out THERE and
I know mark is gonna be very very happy when
he hears that you put that.

Speaker 7 (01:49:56):
Out public let's absolute the. Punning game it is a.

Speaker 17 (01:50:00):
Big story we'll get to the end of the first
half in, a moment but. Punting game Minnesota PINNs wisconsin
at their own two and after a fourth, down penalty
they had to back up to their own five, before.

Speaker 7 (01:50:11):
Punting and minnesota started in, plus position.

Speaker 17 (01:50:16):
Ended up turning that into, a score and then an
eleven yard Punt By seawan west also led to Points.
From minnesota so special teams and these conditions are gonna
be a.

Speaker 7 (01:50:26):
Big.

Speaker 29 (01:50:27):
Deal yeah there was a famous punter For The Green
bay packers, one Time, bj SANDER who i think had
an eleven. Yard Punt mike sherman at the, Time, said
BUDDY if i wouldn't known you were gonna, DO that
i would have just went. For it you might change your.
Thought process not only because of, Those, results mike but
because of. The weather it's clearly going to be a
game where you're gonna have to try and score touchdowns

(01:50:48):
because field goals are going to be so difficult. To
kick and whether or not that means you give up a,
short field it also means you get to play. Four
downs and the Way the badgers are gonna have to
play football if it's Gonna Be.

Speaker 7 (01:51:00):
Carter, smith now maybe that two minute.

Speaker 29 (01:51:02):
Drill and drive Allows the badgers, to THINK because i
do believe you can throw the ball through, the conditions
you'll know it BETTER. Than i it doesn't look, terribly
windy so you should be able to throw it through,
this wind might be or through, the snow might be
able to do it better than, running it and that
might give you a better chance at attacking. This defense because,
right now if you're going to play this game in a,

(01:51:24):
phone booth you're gonna have to flip the field and
that hidden yardage is gonna come up much. TOO costly
i don't know you want to get into a special
teams game With this Gopher squad.

Speaker 17 (01:51:33):
Philly final thirty seconds, with you what do you look
to see early in the third quarter in a three?

Speaker 7 (01:51:38):
Point game, Right now wisconsin starts with. The ball most.

Speaker 29 (01:51:41):
Important Thing As patrick kurb alluded to last week Before the,
illinois game the middle eight has just Hampered the badgers all.

Speaker 7 (01:51:49):
Year long have an opportunity to.

Speaker 29 (01:51:51):
Dominate it with a score here to start goes a
long way in winning a game that looks like it's
going to be a, low possession low.

Speaker 7 (01:51:56):
Scoring total You'll.

Speaker 2 (01:55:02):
To seven Minnesota leads wisconsin in. The half we check
out some of the first half stats and yards have
been very tough to, come by but both teams have two.
Big plays a forty nine yard touchdown Run From darius
Taylor and minnesota and a sixty eight yard pass Play
From hunter Simmons To. Vinnie anthony you put that together

(01:55:23):
And the badgers of one hundred and twenty two yards
of offense one hundred and thirty Seven. For Minnesota darius
taylor eighty six rushing yards on, Ten Carries carter smith
sixteen rushing yards on. Five Carries drake lindsay twelve of
sixteen through the air for forty, One Yards carter smith

(01:55:44):
five out of eight including the touchdown on the overturned
call on the Pass To jackson aker able to tightrope if,
you will that right edge of the. End zone it was,
ruled incomplete but upon further review it was ruled a Touchdown,
and tash as, you mentioned it was a good thing
they were doing the sweeping during the media breaks BECAUSE

(01:56:04):
otherwise i don't think they could.

Speaker 8 (01:56:06):
Overturn them they want to be able to see it
and they're down there cleaning it up again and then
just hanging around trying to get a. HOT chocolate a
lot of complaint and They're mostly. Minnesota, folks oh he
was out of bones before he.

Speaker 7 (01:56:18):
CAUGHT it a.

Speaker 8 (01:56:18):
Tough break jackson did a, great job whether he was
in or out of, bonds, Beforehand whatever but to be
able to keep his feet and get that touchdown and
overturn that call just a huge play in this Game
because minnesota goes down and goes up ten and things
are kind of looking Desperate where minnesota maybe could have

(01:56:39):
even gotten, the ball maybe gotten another field goal before. The,
Half Well hunter simmons, comes in he's the two minute
specialist and makes that big Throat Of vinnie anthony and
then they were able to, cash in albeit it was
hard to get those.

Speaker 7 (01:56:51):
Four yards took him four downs to. Do it jackson.

Speaker 8 (01:56:53):
Does that now you're receiving, the kick and it's almost
like it's a whole new ball game just off of
that last two minutes and twenty seconds in the, first half.

Speaker 2 (01:57:03):
And the badgers will receive go right, to left east.
To west Here At Huntington, Banks Stadium benny Anthony And
cad yakamelle the deep Men. For Wisconsin As brady dennibergh
gets set to kick Off, for minnesota snow continues to

(01:57:23):
fall and swirl as well as we are set, to
go and here's the kick in the air And It's
kid yakamelli left side at. The five he is to the,
tenth fifteen cuts to the middle twenty twenty five, yard
Line and yakamelly up to the. Twenty seven and that's
Where the badgers will begin the. Second half first. And

(01:57:44):
ten as we send it Downstairs, to patrick.

Speaker 4 (01:57:47):
Encouraging end of the half For.

Speaker 9 (01:57:48):
The badgers and one of the THINGS that i think
they liked is the Action That hunter simmons can provide a,
downhill thread.

Speaker 4 (01:57:54):
Downfield threat he's going to start the second half.

Speaker 9 (01:57:56):
AT quarterback i would imagine they're going to continue to
row take quarterback depending on. The situations but it's number
fifteen to start the, second half.

Speaker 2 (01:58:04):
That big past of any anthony that's set up. The
touchdown they mark it the twenty Six of wisconsin first,
And ten so we're. Underway here in the third quarter
Ten seven Minnesota Leads Wisconsin lance mason to tight end
in the backfield Along With, jackson acre And. Here's simmons

(01:58:24):
he's gonna keep it running right across the twenty five
yard line and slides up to. The thirty so how
About That hunter simmons showing some mobility a gain of
five on the first play from scrimmage in the, third
quarter and.

Speaker 8 (01:58:36):
That's, interesting obviously You Think hunter simmons comes in two.
Minute specialists he's gonna throw the football or he's gonna
hand it Off To, darien dupree and he kind of
fakes it and is able to go pick up four
or five yards on. First down good read and a
good job of just getting north, and, south sliding, staying healthy,
getting down picking up.

Speaker 2 (01:58:54):
Five yards second down five from. The thirty the pre
in the backfield to the of The quarterback simmons wants,
to throw looking, winds up throws it deep down. The
middle anthony and a team complete into double coverage the
thirty yard Line. Of Minnesota coy perrich back there For

(01:59:15):
the gophers Along with Fellows Safety. Kerry brown it's third
and five For The badger and.

Speaker 8 (01:59:20):
This is the tough part when you don't know how
many reps you're. Gonna get you want to, make plays
you want to. Be aggressive and that was one of.
Those throws, it's like please keep Sailing because perrich had
a beat. On it luckily he. Overthrew it He Saw
vinnie anthony what he thought was one on. One coverage.

Speaker 7 (01:59:36):
It wasn't you got a little bit tricked and very
fortunate that that ball hit the.

Speaker 2 (01:59:40):
Snowy turf third down and five Of the badgers from
their own thirty. Yard line two, receivers right one on,
The left ashcraft wing on the. Right side simmons to
throw shoots at, right side Caught By vinnie anthony across
a thirty five yard line and a first down to the.
Thirty seven pretty good fastball There From hunter simmons and
a first Down.

Speaker 8 (01:59:59):
Four wisconsin he stayed in the pocket and again it's it's,
you know as an, OFFENSIVE lineman i love days. Like
this the only thing is if it could, be rain
slushy and even worse than, the turf because, you really
as a, defensive lineman have to really formulate on, your
steps and that time a lot of Time For hunter

Football up but obviously you're gonna need to throw.

Speaker 8 (02:03:48):
The football we've seen the Struggles that wisconsin has had
outside Of when hunter, came IN and i don't mind.
THIS move i think it's aggressive and it was the
right play even though it was.

those bootlegs is you want to have. Three levels you
want to have your, deep out you want to have
something coming over, the middle and you want to have
a little. Under route wisconsin did a really good job
of covering everything but the. Under route, you're right he
was trying to take, a shot wanted to make a
big play after. A turnover then he went underneath poor
Throw by lindsay behind him an now at second attend.

Wisconsin Defense the badgers offense has turned it over Twice
and minnesota has nothing to show. For it we have
twelve twenty three left in the, third quarter ten to

(02:08:50):
seven Of, the gophers With the badgers taking over again
at their twenty two, yard line.

Speaker 8 (02:08:54):
And now kind of a fun little game we have
to play up here figuring out who's going to be
in there. AT quarterback i think it's Gonna Be hunter.
Simmons again and YOU know i think you look At
What carter smith.

Speaker 7 (02:09:04):
Has been able.

Speaker 8 (02:09:05):
To do he's been able to run the football or,
you know doing some things with the. Run Game But
hunter simmons has come in and he's throwing. The football
he made the big Play To vinnie anthony has thrown
a couple of. Other throws obviously the interception off. The
tip but you realize you're gonna have to throw the
football here today and have some completions in order to win.
This GAME and i Think Obviously luke fickle and the

(02:09:25):
offensive staff feel like this is the best route.

Speaker 7 (02:09:28):
To go about.

Speaker 35 (02:09:28):
Doing that.

Speaker 2 (02:09:31):
Simmons And the badgers' offense on, The Field eugene hilton
comes out wide to, the Left getting anthony to. The,
rights Well It's Mason jackson acre in the backfield flanking.
The quarterback simmons out of, the shotgun takes. The snap
He'll Feed jackson Acre And devin eastern is there, right

(02:09:52):
Away and acre does well to fight his way and
push the pile for a couple of yards to the.
Twenty four got him right at the line. Of scrimmage
so it's a hard, two yards close to, three actually
and then we'll give him three to the twenty Five
of wisconsin's second.

Speaker 8 (02:10:10):
And seven that's a great job of picking up three
Yards because eastern beat his man immediately right over the
Center of wisconsin's. Offensive line beat him, right Away and
jackson didn't let that first contact get. Him down he
kept churning. His legs give him some credit there for
picking up some. Positive yards Are.

Speaker 2 (02:10:26):
And drew pree in the backfield down two, receivers right
one eye on, the Left Shotgun staff simmons fakes, the handoff,
Rolls right rose Caught By tucker ashcraft across the thirty
yard line gets shot down close to the line To
Gain laverick bearanowski is over there along with The Safety.
Aiden gooseby they'll mark at the thirty one and. A
half they need the thirty two third down coming up With,

(02:10:48):
the badgers.

Speaker 8 (02:10:49):
And you could tell just those on those bootlegs there
you have to you're selling out down, the line and
That time tucker did a good job of kind of
blending in and then. Snuck out you could see the
defensive End for minnesota Kind of tucker is able to
pick up enough there to set up a short third
AND short.

Speaker 2 (02:11:06):
I back simmons under center and the hand Off to
jackson acre in the. Full back it's the first down
to the thirty four. Yard line keep, it simple and
that's what. They did First down wisconsin with ten to
fifty left in the third quarter ten To. Seven minnesota that.

Speaker 8 (02:11:22):
Looks old school. Under center just hand it off to
your big. Full back let. Him plow and he showed
that he could pick up yards when he was knocked
in the backfield on. First down in that time when
you need, you know, eight inches hand. It off jackson
is able to just kind of ruffle his way to
pick up that first.

Speaker 2 (02:11:39):
Down from the thirty four yard Line. Of Wisconsin chris
brooks out to. The left jackson would go in to.
The right now he'll motion to the formation wing of the.
Right Side tucker ashcraft on the left side. Snap through
simmons fakes, the handoff rolling right part. In pursuit short
pass Caught By lance mason across the forty yard line up,
the sideline he goes at a first down to the.

(02:12:01):
Forty five bereanowski racing over There for minnesota had a
first down For the badgers up to their forty five.

Speaker 8 (02:12:09):
Yard Line well hunter was able to beat The initial
russ and again he couldn't get his feet set the
defender and then that forced mcmon that Was covering mason
to come up And then hunter read that got the
football away and was able to pick up a. First
down really nice job There By hunter simmons of avoiding
the initial rush and then forcing the coverman to come

(02:12:31):
up to close on him pick up that.

Speaker 2 (02:12:32):
First out three receivers to the left to pre in
the Backfield Tretch. Keka juno one of those receivers motions to,
the right breaks back the. Other way Shotgun staff, simmons
looks throws to, the left Caught By vinnie anthony forty
five to the fifty yard line and he gets dropped
at the forty Eight of minnesota on the gain of
about seven and they. Get six they'll place at the

(02:12:54):
forty nine of. The goal first second down and Four.
For wisconsin nine to, twenty left, third quarter ten to.

Speaker 8 (02:12:59):
Seven minute good job By by hunter of getting rid
of the ball getting It. To Vinnie But riley malman
from his left tackle spot just came flying out and
was kind of, lunge block threw his whole body out
there in that helped spring that six.

Speaker 2 (02:13:14):
Yard pickup baker to the right OF. The qb dupree
Is Behind hunter simmons double ye to the left and
a high shotgun snap pulled Down by simmons maintains control
the Pass Cock Bye lance mason inside the thirty inside
the twenty Five. Of minnesota they'll mark that the twenty
three nester is. Over, there oh what great Work By.

(02:13:37):
Hunter Simmons johnny coole turns a disaster into a big
play something.

Speaker 7 (02:13:42):
Like that it was.

Speaker 8 (02:13:43):
Definitely cool That was that was a, first off a
great job of tipping it up to himself and then having.
The poise but give the boys up front credit because
they gave him time to kind.

Speaker 7 (02:13:53):
Of recalibrate and then.

Speaker 46 (02:13:55):
That was not an.

Speaker 7 (02:13:55):
Easy throw it Wasn't like mason was.

Speaker 8 (02:13:57):
Running free he had to go over the linebacker and
before the safety in.

Speaker 7 (02:14:01):
That zone great Job. By hunter he.

Speaker 2 (02:14:03):
Ain't of twenty six first and ten At the gophers
twenty three. Yard line simmons gets him to the line,
of scrimmage takes the snap and a little end around
here comes Keck a hood of the twenty five and
he's shot Down By, john nestor who's been making some
big plays today For this. Gophers defense that's a loss
of two second down and Twelve.

Speaker 8 (02:14:24):
For wisconsin and that's another play that, you like and it's,
you Know with carter's been, in there you've seen that
more where you're kind of fake the initial read option
and then you flip backwards to one of your.

Speaker 7 (02:14:34):
White house that time It was tretch and give It give.

Speaker 8 (02:14:37):
Minnesota credit that was a one on one open field
Tackle against tretch and he was able to get him
down for.

Speaker 2 (02:14:43):
A Loss Keck a houda's slacked to. The right You
Got vinnie anthony wide to the right due pree to
the Right To. Hunter simmons second down And twelve wisconsin
At the minnesota twenty five. Yard line simmons calls for,
the ball gets. The snamp you'll hand it To du
priest straight ahead inside the twenty and almost slip through
good STOP at i think That was perrits in there

(02:15:03):
and it was out of. The secondary they'll put it
at the Twenty. Of minnesota make a third down and
about seven For.

Speaker 8 (02:15:12):
The, badgers oh that, was close And again perrits the
heck of a football player and.

Speaker 7 (02:15:16):
He was the last line.

Speaker 8 (02:15:17):
Of defense wisconsin did a really good job Of getting
darian up to that, second LEVEL and i Would bet
parrots just got him around, the ankles was able to pull,
him down or that would have.

Speaker 2 (02:15:27):
Been Six, Eugene Hilton Vinnie Anthony tretch kekahuna wide to. The,
Right now tretch will motion to. The Left grover bordalotti
is in the backfield to the Left, of simmons gets the.
Shotgun stamp hunter looking sex. Throws RIGHT so i picked
off at the twenty twenty five thirty thirty five forty
forty five to fifty nestor to the forty thirty five

(02:15:48):
thirty down the sideline inside the twenty, yard Line And
john nester gets his second interception in the game and
a cruel turn. Of Events Puller wisconsin, BADGERS.

Speaker 7 (02:16:00):
Man i just don't think he saw him undercut. That
route he.

Speaker 8 (02:16:05):
Had time hunter had time in, the pocket but that
is a throw you, cannot make and he had plenty.

Speaker 7 (02:16:12):
Of time he sat in the pocket nice protection and
just got the.

Speaker 8 (02:16:15):
Route, UNDERCUT now i will give Him and tretch credit
for hustling because that looked like a pick six from.
Up Here But hunter simmons didn't give up on, the
play so he made a, poor decision but then he
hustled his tail off to get him down on the
ground and hope that your defense can hold.

Speaker 7 (02:16:32):
Up shop here.

Speaker 2 (02:16:33):
Sixty eight yards on the return For john nester And
the badger defense up against. It again was six twenty
six left in the, third quarter ten To. Seven minnesota
Now the badger d Held the gophers off the board
after the first. Two turnovers let's see what happens now
ball at the sixteen yard Line. Of Wisconsin lemecky brockington

(02:16:57):
in motion into. The backfield lindsey, under center takes, his
snap drops the throw looking floats it to the left
that is caught. By gears jamison gears the tight end
and he gets tapped out of Bounce By mason posa
at the Fourteen, of wisconsin a gain of two second
down at eight For.

Speaker 7 (02:17:15):
The gophers really good recognition by our freshman.

Speaker 8 (02:17:18):
Linebacker there it's a roll out to the right and
they snuck him back out to the Left and mason
posts to recognize that and is able to get him
for a minimal.

Speaker 2 (02:17:26):
Game down a six minutes left in the, Third quarter
gophers up three. And Threatening Now lecai coleman is out
wide to, The right brockington to, The left lindsey under
center takes, the snap Hands Off darius Taylor And parker
Peterson And darryl peterson are there to sandwich the running

(02:17:48):
back at. The thirteen a gain of one third down
and Seven.

Speaker 8 (02:17:52):
For minnesota nice Job By darryl peterson of closing and
kind of, collapsing It and parker does a good job
of fighting off. His block you just see you Also
See cooper catalana. In there this is a stout. Run
defense you had everybody on all levels doing their job
at a, high level and now you set up a
huge third And seven.

Speaker 2 (02:18:11):
Gophers five out of ten on third now ball at
the Thirteen. Of wisconsin three, receivers right one on the
left tailor of the. Running Back drake lindsay back into,
the shotgun takes. The snap badgers Rushing for lindsey pop
flyer with the middle and it is Cut by jamison
Gears touchdown minnesota a little floid unto the tight end
and This time minnesota takes advantage of. The, turnover.

Speaker 7 (02:18:38):
Yeah just.

Speaker 8 (02:18:39):
As simple you're basically you could see the plowed out
part of the hash mark that is where he Went
and drake just kind of threw it right over. The
top it looked Like a Mason Posta matt young a
little bit late to get over and that led for.

Speaker 7 (02:18:54):
The touchdown and.

Speaker 2 (02:18:57):
The man who caught, That Pass, jamison gears is down
and needs. Some attention so when you Thought the badgers
were in position to take, the lead an interception and
a big return sets Up the gophers offense and now
it's a two score, game again sixteen To seven minnesota
with the extra point. Coming up but in, the Meantime

(02:19:19):
the minnesota medical staff checking. Out there Tight End, jamison
gears fifth Year senior, illinois native is fourth touchdown catch of,
the Season gives minnesota this nine point lead at, the moment.

Speaker 7 (02:19:33):
And that was he did such a good.

Speaker 8 (02:19:34):
Job, there again your defense gets put to, the test
gets asked to do something pretty big and trying to
get a stop because if you hold him to a field,
goal there you're still within. One score and you kind
of answered the bell again and you're right in, that
position and unfortunately couldn't get enough Rush on Drake on
lindsay there to make and he's able to make, that
throw and it was not an. Easy throw posa was

(02:19:56):
there on the under part of, that coverage he kind
of floated it over the top and unfortunately our safety
could not get over there to close that gap. Quick
Enough and minnesota executed that at a pretty.

Speaker 2 (02:20:06):
High level jamison gears when he caught, that pass he
was trying to get back up with grabbing his left
knee and went back down and now with some help
he is back on his feet and it's slowly walking
Toward the. Minnesota. Sideline man what a nasty turn of Events.

(02:20:28):
Against wisconsin and Again the badgers asked to respond. To
that with five minutes and four seconds left in the,
third quarter extra point coming Up With, grady denniberg where's the?

line so good field position Here for wisconsin to start.
This possession, AND.

Speaker 8 (02:24:20):
Now i mean it's it's kind of becoming a fun
little game here and trying to figure out who's going
to BE in i, would think think You, continue hunter
who is able to move the football down, the field
and you're doing some good things in the, passing game
but you cannot turn the ball over and for as
good and, you know the finish, the half the way.
He did but to start this, second half to have two,

(02:24:41):
picks already you have to be able to protect the
football and now when you're, down ten you need to
get some.

(02:36:29):
as we start the, fourth quarter And as, mike Mentioned
the gophers are at their own two, yard line second down.

Speaker 8 (02:36:34):
And none and this is the case Where, obviously Minnesota
like wisconsin when they were, pinned back you want to
get two. First downs you want to kind of get
it moving and then be, able to, you know give
your your punters. Some, room wisconsin on the other side,
OF it i think you have to sell out here
and make go for a. Big Play if minnesota is gonna,
throw it pressure, their quarterback make him force him into

(02:36:56):
some maybe a tough, decision Here BUT minnesota i would
guess going to be, conservative here try and pound, the
football and that has Not been outside of the one,
Long run wisconsin has held up very Well against minnesota's run,
Game today.

Speaker 2 (02:37:09):
Minnesota with ninety three rush yards one hundred and fifty
four total yards to two hundred twenty Five. For wisconsin
lindsay when he's, thrown it it's been short stuff fourteen
of twenty for sixty one yards in. One touchdown so here,
we go first play of the, Fourth quarter minnesota going right,
to left east to west here at, the stadium to

(02:37:32):
your receivers right one to. The Left frank berman the
tight end, motion's right breaks back the. Other way lindsay
falls back Hand Off darius taylor off the, right side
bangs his way into the five. Yard Line tommy heiberger
is there to stand. Him up progress stopped at the
six and the ball popped out with a cal, Him
down so it'll be a third down and five For
the gofers at their own six.

Speaker 8 (02:37:52):
Yard, line yeah pretty good job there Of Sealing mason
riger off of the right Side of Minnesota's offensive they
cut it back in off of that and was able
to pick up four yards to set up a manageable
third and. Five here this is obviously a. Huge play
wisconsin needs to get off the field here to give
themselves good field Position.

Speaker 2 (02:38:10):
In minnesota six out of. Eleven today on, third down
Very efficients lindsey back in, The Shotgun jalen smith slocked to.
The rights big. Play here taylor starts in motion to,
The right lindsay to throw over. The middle, it's caught
but short of the. First down the immediate Hit By
mason posa That Was, drew bibber the tight end on,

(02:38:33):
the Catch and posa was there to drill him at
the eight and. A half they'll call it the nine.
Yard line it's fourth down and a couple, to go
And the gophers are putting for him deep in their,
own territory.

Speaker 8 (02:38:45):
And he's very fortunate he got rid of. That Football
mason rager came. Screaming off he beat their left tackle.
Pretty quickly their good Recognition by lindsey to throw, that
Football and wisconsin did a nice job of.

Speaker 7 (02:38:57):
Corraling and getting off the. Field here and hopefull gonna.

Speaker 8 (02:39:00):
Get a good set here on field position to get
down here and try to cut this to a one.

Speaker 2 (02:39:04):
Score Game tom weston on the punt Snap clean badgers
get a little pressure on, the kick is away hit,
it well drifting Back As, tyrrell henry he'll let it
hit out of bounds inside the forty Five. Of wisconsin
funter had the wind that had his back and took
advantage of forty seven. Yard punt still decent field position
For the badgers starting to get their forty three yard

(02:39:25):
line with thirteen twenty three, to play seventeen To, seven minnesota.

Speaker 8 (02:39:31):
And, we've seen, you know most of the poor punts
on the, other END and i know you can't, do
this but. You did AT least i thought for, a
second do you use timeouts to? Get that because that
Hit a he hit a great punt there and you
still are getting. The ball you can't. Use it you
need to have those time. Ons crowd but That was
minnesota being very wise running the football and getting it

(02:39:52):
so that they could punt from the side where there.

Speaker 2 (02:39:54):
Was Wind punter simmons remains the, quarterback well just going into.
The wind in, The fourth gerry on dupri the Running
back jackson would go in motions to. The right here's
the hand Off to dupre up the middle across the.
Forty five bereanowski is there to make the hit along
With cutter men's off, the edge a gain of about
Three for dupree to the forty Six of wisconsin's second down.

Speaker 8 (02:40:16):
AND seven i was, also thinking you, know what the
wind is obviously a pig factor in the, throw game
and if You Bring Carter smith beck in with the
wind going against you to utilize his legs a little.
Bit more But obviously wisconsin feels like, down ten they
need to be have everything at their disposal throwing in running,
The football.

Speaker 2 (02:40:34):
Anthony slide to, The Right chris brooks is wide seever
out wide to the left. As Well That's tretch kakahuna
who motions to. The Right Shotgun snaffed simmons Hands off
dupri off the, left side gets hemmed in and maybe
got back to the line, of scrimmage and. That's It
lucas finnissy is there to finish. That play forced right back,

(02:40:55):
inside though and it's third down and seven For the
badgers of their own.

Speaker 8 (02:40:59):
Forty six darien did a great job of just, fighting
off because that was a nice job by their right
defensive end off of our left tackle is able to
kind of secure That and darien was able to stiff
armed at least hold him off for, a second but
just nowhere to go There.

Speaker 2 (02:41:16):
For Dupree jalen, logan reading a six, year senior helped
force that back inside third down and seven For the
badgers with their own forty six trips to, The right
simmons gets the, shotgun snapped go for. Sending five simmons
throws to the right and it's incomplete One a kekahuna
tightly Covered By darius green out of, the secondary and

(02:41:38):
it's three and Out. Four Wisconsin the badgers punting from
their forty six, yard line and he.

Speaker 7 (02:41:44):
Had time protection was.

Speaker 8 (02:41:46):
Really good it was just he sailed, that football and
that was one where you really were hoping to be
able to pick up a couple of first downs and
go down and get Points.

Speaker 7 (02:41:55):
In wisconsin at least, for now it looks like they Stalled.

Speaker 2 (02:42:00):
And kelly is deep Now for minnesota to return. This
Punch sean west is out, there Well the badgers punning
into the wind that snap His clean west steps up

there is some good snow residue. Built up so, all
right here we. Go Again now minnesota with a little
bit better fuel position than when they first then in the,
last possession but again you keep asking the defense to

(02:45:04):
make stands and to.

Speaker 7 (02:45:05):
Make stops we need to create a turnover here and
we need.

Speaker 2 (02:45:08):

that yeah gain of three second down and Seven. For

(02:46:06):
MINNESOTA and i don't.

Speaker 8 (02:46:08):
Know if minnesota is just thinking it's it's been tough
sledding running, the football and we thought that it. Would
be they've been able to hit a couple, of runs
but nothing outside of the one touchdown run of. Any
substance so if they're just gonna sit here and go
dink and dunk And force wisconsin into doing some things
where then maybe they can run. The football they, just got,
you know did a substitution package to Get someone wisconsin's

(02:46:29):
bigger players off.

Isn't already nine to forty five will play seventeen To.
Seven Minnesota eja boy remains the. Running back lindsey, under
center pulls back and he'll Hand The eja boy off

(02:47:27):
the left side of the line, across midfield fights his
way to about the forty eight yard line posta on,
the tackle gain of. About three he's second down and
seven For.

Speaker 8 (02:47:36):
The, gophers yeah And now minnesota, is gonna, you know
take their time trying to run the football that if
they can get three or four yards, to carry they're
going to be more than happy getting themselves in a
third and in short and then they can go back
to the kind of their short controlled. Passing game putting
some Pressure on wisconsin here, to go maybe be a
little more aggressive than what they want to do in.

Speaker 7 (02:47:56):
These conditions lindsey brings.

Speaker 2 (02:47:59):
Them Up logan loyas slack to, The Rights javon tracy
is wide to, The right blockington to. The left lindsey remains,
Under Center darius taylor back in there at, running Back
and lindsay'll give it to him off the. Right Side
parker peterson wraps him up at about the forty Seven

(02:48:19):
of wisconsin had a big third and six coming up With.

Speaker 8 (02:48:23):
The Gophers jeff parker does a nice job of just
kind of playing down the line. Of scrimmage and these
guys have done a really good job the downline And
the bartons of not only holding the point but also
being able to shed and get in on making. A
tackle that makes for these linebackers that have been so
good it makes their life a.

Speaker 2 (02:48:41):
Lot easier minnesota fifty. To fifty on third down today
six out of twelve two receivers left one on. The
rights lindsey back into the shotgun From the wisconsin forty seven,
yard line Snapped the lindsay four man rush short pass
over the middle of that is Caught, by bibber wrapped

(02:49:02):
up short of the first down at the forty Three.
Of wisconsin you had three badgers, Over There, Brandon lane
mason posta a couple. Of them fourth down, and two
and then YOU'LL Find. Pj fleck you'll keep the offense.
Out there perhaps it looks like or, maybe not looks
like he's gonna go ahead and send on the punt
team and continue the field position game with seven. FORTY

(02:49:25):
remaining i thought he might try for, a little a
little putaway, punch there but that's not.

Speaker 7 (02:49:29):
The, case yeah the old student section agrees. With you
they're not happy.

Speaker 8 (02:49:32):
With that that's one of THOSE where, i thought, for
sure you keep the offense out and at least try
to draw him off side of the fourth.

Speaker 7 (02:49:38):
And two.

Speaker 8 (02:49:39):
THEY didn't I think pj feels pretty good about his
defense being able to. Make stops there's still be a
twelve Minute And tom weston with the kick in, The Air,
tyrell henry let's it hit or go out of bounds
near the ten.

Speaker 2 (02:49:52):
Yard line there is a penalty. Marker down IT.

Speaker 7 (02:49:57):

seventeen To seven minnesota and they have seven to fourteen
now on the.

Speaker 8 (02:50:40):
Game clock that was a very weird sequence because there
was still plenty of time on the.

Speaker 7 (02:50:44):
Game, clock yeah AND don't i thought the way.

Speaker 8 (02:50:47):
It looked we had guys running off the Field and
minnesota snapped it with about eighteen seconds left on the.
PLAY clock, i, So hey i'm HAPPY that i was wrong,
on that but now you're Perforcing in minnesota had a really.

AND huddle i think you need to move here because This,
game minnesota obviously they just shortened this game with that
last drive they. Put together you're gonna probably have two
possessions left in. This game you need To make you
need to make them.

Speaker 2 (02:54:13):
Both Count hunter simmons eight of thirteen through, the air
one hundred and, thirty yards. Two interceptions the second one was.
Very costly If the badgers had gotten To the, minnesota
twenty but an interception and a big Return From john
nester set up a touchdown to Give the gophers this ten,
point lead And The hunter simmons Or the badgers' offense

(02:54:33):

the Badgers.

Speaker 7 (02:55:02):

he wisely pulled that down lit, you know took the,
underneath rout got the five yards and now we got to.

Speaker 7 (02:55:14):
Move though we gotta.

Speaker 2 (02:55:15):
Get moving break, Their Huddle chris brooks out to, The

Remaining well even saying that name a, lot today he's.
Been good he has had a heck of a day.

Speaker 8 (02:55:47):
To day and that was he he, saw it, read
IT and i think it was probably Better that vinnie
dropped that because he was not going to pick up a.
First down the clock was. Gonna turn so now we're
sitting here at a third. And Five he nester has
been all over the place.

Speaker 2 (02:56:01):
This afternoon two, receivers left two, receivers right third down

shotgun Snapped The simmons gophers. Bringing four hunter are looking
as time now pulls. It down he'll run for it
across the twenty and gets belted at the twenty one,
yard line and, that, meet well let's see where they.

(02:56:22):
Market here looks like it's gonna be a little short.
The officials the football at the moment is closer to the,
twenty TWO but i think they're gonna bring it back
to the twenty and. They do and now it's get
the first down or else it's fourth and one For
the badgers at their own twenty with five point fifty.

Speaker 8 (02:56:41):
Three, remaining yeah whatever your best play, is here you
need you need to bring. This out and whether you're
gonna give It To jackson acre or a you're gonna
try to run a.

Speaker 7 (02:57:16):
Patience there that.

Speaker 8 (02:57:18):
Was close he had someone in the Backfield And darien
dupree was able to just hesitate enough and then get
vertical and pick up a nice seven, yard chunk but we.

Speaker 2 (02:57:27):
Gotta, move yeah they're in their huddle and slow to
get out. Of it coming up with a final five
minutes of, the game seventeen, To, seven minnesota two, receivers
right two, receivers left now eighter motions into The backfield
dupree behind. The quarterback simmons takes play fake back to
throw under pressure flush to his right to the twenty
five to, the thirty races to the boundary and gets

(02:57:50):
there at the thirty three or thirty four. Yard Line
jackson howard in. Hot pursuit they market actually closer to
the thirty five. Yard line there'll be a second down
in Two four wisconsin.

Speaker 8 (02:58:02):
Like That from, hunter there he sees that there was
an initial pressure off of his, blind side and he
sees it, instead of, you know taking, a sack he
just goes and picks up some. Positive yards but that clock.
Is ticking minnesota is more than content with letting them run.

Speaker 2 (02:58:18):
This much clock four twenty remaining second down For the
badgers at their thirty five. Yard line simmins gets. The
snap gophers. Sent four hunter throws over. The Middle chris
brook's the catch Across midfield brook's still fighting his Way into,
minnesota territory and it's driven down at the forty seven,

one wisconsin three receivers right went on. The left simmons gets,
The snap gophers Rushing four hunter under pressure and he
will throw it up band Away as fantasy was getting
close to the quarterback and no one was. Around him

Pj is all over that screaming down on, the SIDELINE
and i was nervous that he.

Speaker 7 (02:59:29):

grounding the offense.

Speaker 10 (02:59:36):

the foul includes.

Speaker 7 (02:59:40):
The loss of down. Third down, you, know man he
didn't need to.

Speaker 32 (02:59:46):
Do that that was.

Speaker 8 (02:59:48):
The protection while it, wasn't great there was plenty, of
time and he just drifted more than he. Needed to
and then guys got in his face after about three
four seconds and he just ailed it, over there and
everybody was. On it they, saw it and they threw.
The flag and now you're sitting here the third and long,

those toes twinkled on before, the end before the sideline
and get that seven points. Before Half so i'm gonna
need some big help here in order to make that.

(03:05:45):
All WORTHWHILE but, I Thought, jackson acre then he picked
up some critical your short yardage plays.

Men min soda seventeen to Seven the gophers two minutes
fifty eight. Seconds remaining that was a very.

little underneath to try to get it, more manageable And
then minnesota celebrating like they.

Consistent level so you factor all that in and then

(03:10:49):
you know your special team's not.

Speaker 7 (03:10:50):
Really up a couple.

Speaker 8 (03:10:52):
Of punts they put position And gave minnesota an opportunity
to have some shorter fields and they took advantage. Of
that but, you know a another GREAT effort i thought
by the defensive side of the, Football today but as
we've seen unfortunately too many, times today he ain't gonna
win games with one thirty.

Speaker 2 (03:11:09):
Year, Group yeah badgers this season are minus eleven in the.
Turnover margin.

Speaker 7 (03:11:17):
Can't.

Speaker 2 (03:11:18):
Do, It no minnesota Plus eight gophers have lost just
one fumble all. Gear wall maybe let's get another.

Speaker 7 (03:11:25):
One, here yeah hope they.

Speaker 2 (03:11:26):
Do well at the Forty. Of wisconsin badgers have all three.
Timeouts available just so, You know lindsy out of, the
shotgun the one of the tied end motions to, the
right comes back the other way as he gets the
Snamphans Off darius taylor up the middle and he'll get
maybe a yard Time, out wisconsin, all right not gonna take.

(03:11:49):
Him home That was Christian a lake or Check That,
austin brown big your pardon making. The tackle so there's
the first charge time out of the second half of
a minute fifty six.

Speaker 8 (03:11:58):
To, play yeah you just want to continue to give your,
team chances give them an opportunity and whether or not
this is going to, be doable you want to get
off the, field here give your offense one more crack.
At it and, You know i've seen crazy stuff happen
in football and especially under, These conditions so hopefully you get.
A stop you just want to make sure you're always going.

Speaker 7 (03:12:18):
Down fighting.

Speaker 2 (03:12:21):
You mentioned that the struggles of, the offense. It's bad
your defense is going to look a lot different, next
year just with the personnel and a lot of guys
in their last lap of. College eligibility but. The focus
you've got to, find somehow some way to fix the
offense through player development of the guys coming back through,

(03:12:42):
the portal incoming high schoolers who will the signing period
will Start. Next wednesday so it's been one of the
least productive offenses in. School history on, second down here's
the Handoff The taylor, Brandon Lane austin brown or there
right at the line, of scrimmage which just a thirty

(03:13:02):
Nine Of wisconsin fickle using his second, time out he
as one left with them minute fifty two.

Speaker 8 (03:13:07):
To play you just love the fact and this group
and the guys, up front really the way they've competed
all season and just not. Given in and, you know
we talked in the pregame about TFLs and sacks, and
everything but it's just Stout GROUP.

Speaker 7 (03:13:21):
And i love, the fact even though hope is mostly.

Speaker 8 (03:13:24):
Lost in this, football game they are going down swinging
here even at the end of this.

Speaker 2 (03:13:28):
Ball, game patrick what do?

Speaker 9 (03:13:30):
You, Have Well Paul bunions access made its way to.
The field they changed things to this rivalry a handful of.
Years ago it used to be in the bench of
the team that had won, it previously and as, you
remember if the other team, would win they'd race into the.

Speaker 4 (03:13:42):
Bench and steal it and got contentions a.

Speaker 9 (03:13:44):
Few times so now they now they put it at the,
goal post and so it has made its appearance down
on the goal post to.

Speaker 4 (03:13:49):
The left have you guys as you view it And,
had sadly.

Speaker 9 (03:13:52):
It looks like it's gonna stay Here, in minneapolis which
Means that wisconsin's display cases in their, locker room all three,
of Them, the Heartland, the freedom And the acts will
go empty for.

Speaker 8 (03:14:01):
Another offseason somebody asked to explain, to me if you're,
at home why you chop down the field goal posts to.

Speaker 7 (03:14:07):
Understand that.

Speaker 2 (03:14:09):
That's Good questions and we'll end around here as they
Go To javon tracy running left, thirty five gets inside
the Thirty And matt young drives him out, of bounds
and that will do it Here, in, minneapolis though they
Handed To javon tracy bending to, the left First down
gophers with a minute forty.

Speaker 7 (03:14:29):
Two Remaining darryl peterson.

Speaker 8 (03:14:31):
Was there he took a kind of one false step
to kind, of squeeze and they ran the end around
and unfortunately he couldn't get him Down On once tracy got,
past him he wisely. Stayed inbounds and that will put
a bow on a very disappointing day up Here.

Speaker 7 (03:14:45):
In, MINNEAPOLIS.

Speaker 2 (03:14:46):
Well, pj fleck and this is ninth year winning. This
game his teams will be thirty nine and forty In The. Big,
ten however five and Four, against Wisconsin the gophers. Use
it you have to use a. Time out play clock
was about, to expire and this will just allow them
to enjoy the snow a little. Bit more but you Wonder.

(03:15:09):
About fleck they haven't. Broken through they win their. Bowl
games they're not major, bowl games but they. Win them
and he's beaten his rival now five times out of
nine as the coach Of. The gophers so sometimes that's
what you need, to do and he's been able to.

Speaker 8 (03:15:25):
Do that you make an argument that's probably why he's kept. His,
JOB yeah i think obviously this is a big rivalry for.
BOTH sides i did it was from our end because
we had been so dominant for. SO long i think
we kind of looked at in a different WAY. And
pj fleck has forced all of Us as, badger fans
to re examine where this is because he's had more

(03:15:46):
success against us than we have had, against him and.

Speaker 2 (03:15:50):
He's made it truly. A, rivalry again is the victory Formation.
For minnesota, Lindsay backpedaling he'll drop to a knee at
the thirty. Yard line little jabbing going on between a
couple of players there look like a MILLION o a Guard.
For Wisconsin darius Taylor from minnesota all, for Naughts the
badgers letting the. Clock run now with a minute five,

(03:16:13):
to play seventeen, To, Seven, minnesota.

Speaker 7 (03:16:16):
Now are they going to storm?

Speaker 8 (03:16:17):
The field oh that's a. Good question might as well
get out. Out there you guys aren?

Speaker 2 (03:16:24):
Good, TODAY yeah i, tell you the fans who have
been here start. TO finish i.

Speaker 7 (03:16:29):
Thought that washington game.

Speaker 2 (03:16:30):
Was, tough yeah THIS is i.

Speaker 8 (03:16:32):
Mean tough i'm not gonna say we're heroes up, here
today but there's snow at.

Speaker 7 (03:16:35):
Your feet when you're in a snow my.

Speaker 2 (03:16:38):
Windows open lindsey drops to a knee and that's all
they'll need as this one will come to. An End
The Minnesota golden gophers keep Possession Of paul, bunyan's acts
they win their seventh game of. The Year the badgers
will finish four wins and. Eight losses the defense did

(03:16:59):
all it could with. The offense it has been an
issue all year and was an. Issue today just seven
points here.

Speaker 7 (03:17:08):
This, afternoon yeah it's been the story.

Speaker 8 (03:17:10):
All season and when you're asking your defense to not
only play at a super, high level but also give
you short fields and when you turn the, football over
it's just too much.

Speaker 7 (03:17:20):
To overcome the factor in some poor special teams play.

Speaker 8 (03:17:24):
As well and that formula that you found to win
a few games here at the end of, the season
it will not hold up and it did not hold.
Up today and that's Why The Minnesota golden gophers are
running Around With paul bunyon's acts.

Speaker 2 (03:17:36):

Speaker 2 (03:21:37):
In banks Stadium in minneapolis to the victor goes. To
spoils That Means paul bunyon's acts Remains. In minneapolis, and
yes they're playing jump. Around here they've done. It before
other stadiums have done. The same that's how it works
when you have a tradition and things don't go well
for you as a. Road team so Hubbly. Day taos

(03:21:58):
the defense holding minnisot outed a two hundred and eighteen yards,
of offense but the Turnovers the badger defense kept them
off the board after the. First two that last one
a killer because, you're thinking, at worst it's ten to seven.
Third quarter at worst you can get a field goal
to tie, the game big, interception return and then they
score a touchdown a few. Plays.

Speaker 8 (03:22:18):
LATE yeah i mean all of the turnovers obviously, were
big but that one you just, felt like, You know
luke decides to Go With hunter simmons in the, second
HALF and i know there's gonna be some criticism. FOR
that i, you know from, MY seat i think it
was the. Right move you needed to be able to
throw the. Football today we saw in the first half you.
Are limited you can't run quarterback draw five times in

(03:22:40):
a row on. Third down eventually you have to be
able to throw the football and for, whatever reason that's
just that's not where we're At With carter. Smith YET
so I thought hunter, comes in gives that big spark
right before, the half and you know that the first interception,
he threw the kid made a Good, play paranowski, you
know made a nice tip up and was able to.

Speaker 7 (03:22:58):
Do it he didn't.

Speaker 8 (03:22:59):
See him the last one just you have to be
able to see and, read that and that was an.
Absolute dagger and then they were able to go in and.
Get seven and you just got the sense that if
you were going to fall behind by two, scores today
it was going to be.

Speaker 7 (03:23:12):
Tough sledding and that's kind of how it.

Speaker 2 (03:23:14):
Played out we talk ABOUT the nfl being a week to,
week league and college football has become more and more.
Of that Because the badgers came in here feeling good and,
rightfully so convincing Win against illinois. Last week they Had,
beaten washington two wins against ranked Teams, of minnesota a.
Disheartening loss defense just didn't hold Up At brickley Field,

(03:23:35):
against northwestern and then today. It flips minnesota is the
team but celebrating on the field and For, the badgers
just a humbling Day.

Speaker 7 (03:23:43):
Well minnesota and not lost, at HOME and i think
this is a team that thrives.

Speaker 8 (03:23:47):
On that and they, you know it wasn't a full
house by, any stretch but the crowd was in It
a wisconsin was using a silent count and they were doing.

Speaker 7 (03:23:54):
Some things So give minnesota's.

Speaker 8 (03:23:56):
Fans CREDIT but i think what this shows me and
we all knew this Watching this badger football team throughout.
The season you saw what opposing teams have been able
to Do to minnesota's defense.

Speaker 7 (03:24:07):
This year we saw it last week up up Close.
In northwestern give.

Speaker 8 (03:24:11):
Them credit they're not An offensive jugger off by any
stretch of, the imagination and we just were so limited.

Speaker 34 (03:24:17):
With what we.

Speaker 8 (03:24:18):
Could DO and i know the weather is, a FACTOR
but i don't know if it was this much of.
A factor and so we have a long way. To
go the nice thing is about.

Speaker 7 (03:24:27):
This season you did love the competitiveness and, in fact
this group.

Speaker 8 (03:24:31):
Stuck together there's some positives, to GO but i think
everybody now that this season, IS over i think everybody
is going to be looking for a reset and, a refresh,
and offensively we're going to have to be a heck
of a lot better than what we were.

Dot Com Slash. Badgers taos you're asking about some individual
tackle stats and it FELT like i, Was, Saying cooper
Catalano and mason posta. A lot and There's reason catalano

(03:29:48):
ten tackles posted with nine five Solos for cooper and
six Solos. For mason and as you move forward with,
this team and you know this personnel process is going
to be getting under way here in the next couple,
of days it's pretty. Captain obvious you start with guys,
like that make sure that they are quite frankly taken

(03:30:08):
care of and secure, moving forward because this defense has
some good young talent going, for it and it starts
with those.

Speaker 8 (03:30:15):
Two GUYS and i think you start looking at where
this season kind of started taking a more even a more.
Positive TURN and i don't want to denigrate, anyone else
but when those two young guys got, in there you
just felt like a jolt.

Speaker 7 (03:30:28):
Of energy they have.

Speaker 8 (03:30:30):
Kind of come in together and for the level of
play as freshmen have been, really strong and that is
one of THE reasons i think a Lot of badger
fans should be.

Speaker 7 (03:30:40):
Super.

Speaker 8 (03:30:40):
Optimistic now as, you said this is a whole. New
world you have to not only, develop talent but you
also have to. Keep it and it's it's no Longer
though i'll let them grow and we'll let know it is.
Every year is that you, are basically, you know a
free agent and you have to determine the players that
you have to keep and MAKE a i would think

(03:31:01):
this isn't rocket. SCIENCE here i would think everybody here
realizes the talent that those two have and the impact
that they've made immediately and in the future of guys
that you're gonna build Your programmer.

Speaker 2 (03:31:14):
And on the, offensive side You Get kevin haywood back
up And Running barrett nelson to guys who could not
participate this season part of the, Offensive Line emerson mandel grew.
A lot, you know maybe on a, Perfect world touis he's,
a guard but he had to play right tackle and
did everything. He could you, You Know colin cubberly the
player development with these young guys and then others who

(03:31:37):
didn't see the field this year but are very promising.
Offensive lineman but you figure the portal is going to
be really important to get to.

Speaker 8 (03:31:44):
This program it's going to be for a lot of,
different positions and, you know the great unknown is you
just don't know who's all going to, be here who
you want to, have back who you're able. To, keep
like there's just so much unknown that you know for,
this season and you want to think there's gonna be
a lot of things to build, off of and. There
is we mentioned two, of them two, guys already but

(03:32:07):
there is a lot of guys that have had a
ton of pride in this program that dumped everything they
had out on, the field that aren't gonna be here
and who's gonna fill all of that? Leadership void so
every year now is really a whole. New RESET and
i think for a Lot of badger fans, you're, saying
okay good because this is a very, disappointing season but

(03:32:29):
you also want to make.

Speaker 7 (03:32:31):
Sure this, senior group there is a lot of guys
that you just have.

Speaker 8 (03:32:36):
To respect they didn't Have The rose bowls and they
didn't have all of the success that you hope when you,
come here and for them to fight and compete and
not let that locker. ROOM splinter i can't say enough
positive Things, the Peterson's, The Bartons. Riley maulman there's just

We continue with A Local wisconsin dealers postgame Show as
minnesota to Beats the badgers today seventeen. To seven wisconsin
finishes four. And, eight overall just a couple of big
ten wins and much work to do here. Moving Forward,
and tallas you mentioned it with, the personnel the players you,
want back the players who want to, be back and

(03:37:21):
maybe in some cases mutual decisions not. To return that's
part of the reality of this world now of, college
athletics with free agency. EVERY year i thought there were
nobody wants four. And eight that's not remotely close to.
Good enough but we talked a lot about trying to
form an identity of this team and they're still trying
to figure. That out, on offense but there was a

(03:37:43):
grittiness with the way they played defensively and even with
special teams making. Some Plays ben barton gets another block
in a field. Goal today it's, a start but obviously
it's very critical how this team performs in the first
several weeks the. Season period when you look ahead to twenty, twenty.

Speaker 8 (03:38:02):
SIX yeah i think twenty twenty six feels like it's
so far away because.

Speaker 7 (03:38:07):
The amount of turnover in college football now is it's.

Speaker 8 (03:38:10):
Just crazy so this year's team is not going to
look anything like what next year's team is going to.
Look like BUT what i do think you want to
see is some of those kind, of hallmarks, the toughness,
the resiliency and that WAS something I think luke really was.
Focusing on and you know who, they acquired which players they,
brought IN and i think They hit there was a

(03:38:31):
lot of guys on the defensive side of the football
that are just, tough cats that really played with a with.
An edge and, you know unfortunately a lot of those
guys are going to be heading out the door and
you're gonna have to replace.

Speaker 7 (03:38:44):
And that's just the nature of.

Speaker 8 (03:38:46):
This business so a lot of challenges Ahead for luke
and his staff and, you know we'll be excited to
kind of watch. It unfold we, had Fun didn't it
was you know what for a season that, was rough
especially this. Last month I'll admit Iowa And ohio state.

Speaker 2 (03:39:04):
Were, tough yes that was That.

Speaker 7 (03:39:06):
Was i'd say.

Speaker 8 (03:39:06):
The downside and then but you started seeing some signs
even In the, oregon game and then when we went
Down to indiana to not be able to win a
road game disappointing and it would have been awesome to
finish this thing off because you felt like the guys
they really fought and you, felt like for the first
time in, a while the confidence.

Speaker 7 (03:39:24):
Was Good and i'll, be honestly that made.

Speaker 2 (03:39:26):
Me, nervous, yep yeah, you know here you go and unfortunately.

Speaker 7 (03:39:30):
Are unable to close it up and get the.

Speaker 8 (03:39:32):

still love this program and you just always are hoping for.

We continue with the, postgame show brought to you by
Your local wisconsin. Four Dealers I'm Bill schmid Lan salin
On Alongside badgers Fall in Minnesota At Huntingdon banks, stadium
tonight seventeen, to seven the final and four and eight the.
Final record two and Seven In big ten play will
be the final numbers For the badgers here in twenty.

Speaker 7 (03:44:31):
Twenty five lance.

Speaker 29 (03:44:32):
Before we get To the matthew macro level and start
talking a lot about, the offseason and we'll do some,
of that especially into the local side of the. Post
game but the game here tonight a tale of, two
games felt. Like one after the Move To hunter simmons
exclusively in the second half was one Of The badgers

(03:44:54):
we're going to try to play from. THE air i
Talked To mike keller during halftime. About it with the
win not being, a factor the snow being a little
bit of a speed, Mitigating factor badgers were able to
play a little bit on, the outside just unable to
make those kind of, backbreaking mistakes especially the second interception
that one felt like It was curtains after a two

(03:45:15):
score lead, was achieved it felt like that was going
to be the only lead you were going to have
to get in a game.

Speaker 70 (03:45:20):
Like, tonight yeah and that was the, Tough, One billy
no if fans or butts. About it when it's ten,
to seven, you know and you've got a chance in,
this game and then all of a sudden there's, an
interception two interceptions, in fact and obviously. A fumble but
as to, your point, you know the one interception probably
was the backbreaker in all, intensive purposes even Though the

(03:45:41):
badger still had time to recover. From that you just
couldn't turn the ball over in that atmosphere more than maybe.
JUST once, i mean, you know mistakes are going to
maybe maybe one turnover in the in those conditions would be,
One thing but three times you're not going to recover
from that. Once again, you know. It's unfortunate we saw
On a badger's offense that they did move the ball,

(03:46:03):
in spots but a lot of times this year it
was just one touchdown. Per game like the reason why
they averaged And, we billy YOU and i were here
from the jump all.

Speaker 71 (03:46:14):
Year long but the.

Speaker 70 (03:46:14):
Reason why they averaged seven points a game is because
they pretty much could only muster about seven points on offense.
Per game Once the gophers got that, second touchdown you
just had that, feeling, like yeah the action was going
to stay up In The.

Speaker 29 (03:46:27):
Twin bids but in difficult BECAUSE and I understand i
fully do the move Over To. Hunter, simmons however it's
difficult when you're seeing the approach in the first three
games of the Month. Of november you really break this
season down fully, into three three segments of it in

(03:46:48):
three months of, the year three totally, different teams it
felt like you saw and in the Month of october
you already knew going into the year that was going
to be a devilish beast to be able to try
to slay and unable to do so. At all but
here into the Month, of november you saw a little
bit of. Offensive rhythm you saw some positive. STRIDES offensively

(03:47:10):
i don't, know exactly and, You know tous said it
at the end of, the GAME and i thought he, put,
it well, you know it's just clearly not where they
are right Now With carter smith of letting him air
the football out a. Little bit in, you Know credit
minnesota because their red shirt Freshman Quarterback drake lindsay just
didn't put the ball in harm's way through for, ninety

(03:47:32):
yards didn't necessarily have to.

Speaker 1 (03:47:34):
Do a whole.

Speaker 29 (03:47:35):
Lot more they got the explosive play in the, run
game but it felt like there would be if there
would be an opportunity to just let it rip a
little bit and see what else you could achieve with a.
YOUNG player i get there's a development you want to
be somewhat cautious with some, of it but it felt
like tonight you just were hesitant. And reticence it put

(03:47:58):
the ball too much in his hand and it really
started to backfire later because into that late stage of
the second Quarter when smith was, In there minnesota was
just teeing off because they knew exactly what.

Speaker 70 (03:48:09):
Was coming and to, Your, point Billy Like drake lindsay
was eighteen of, twenty four but only for ninety yards,
because yeah the win was, a factor the conditions were,
a factor but they didn't put him in a lot of,
precarious positions so.

Speaker 1 (03:48:21):
To Speak And carter.

Speaker 70 (03:48:22):
Smith for the limited role or account that he was
five of eight, twenty Yards, but, simmons well the two,
picks were, you know and one probably more than the
other were. Very Lethal john nester to your hat. To
him he had a whale of. A game he was
Almost Like daryl peterson in the, last game where he
filled up the statuet with a little bit. Of everything,

(03:48:44):
nine tackles seven solo to tackles for lofts. Two PICKS
but i think we talked about it at least a couple,
of times especially down the stretch of what is your?
Team identity and at least the team, figured, out hey
we've got a really, good defense and.

Speaker 71 (03:49:00):
Once again overall. Pretty well you can pick a.

Speaker 70 (03:49:04):
Few things you can probably, say, that okay there were
a few things that could have been better in this game, As,
Well billy, BUT overall i think the defense held up
their end of, the bargain and it was their identity
was more of a. Defensive TEAM but i guess that's
the to your point what left me scratching, My head
you scratching. YOUR head a lot of people kind, of puzzled,

(03:49:26):
is okay so Now Is carter smith your guy?

Speaker 71 (03:49:29):
Going forward and what is the identity of?

Speaker 70 (03:49:32):
The OFFENSE and i know the offense didn't have a,
long identity but it just didn't seem like they got
the running GAME going I Mean garrian dupre and what
twelve carry for fifty, one yards so kind of limited there.

Speaker 71 (03:49:42):
As well you Kind Of.

Speaker 70 (03:49:44):
CARTER smith, i, thought Well Maybe hunter simmons is coming
in at the end of the, you know like basically
that two minute drill or at the end of the,
first half just to, you know mix, it up and
maybe we'll see him again a little bit in the.

Speaker 71 (03:49:53):
Second half we saw him all the, second half, so
yeah it was.

Speaker 70 (03:49:56):
It was a little puzzling on. That end but, you,
know ultimately if You, captain minnesota as Much as i'd
begrudguingly say, that is they earn the right to keep
that act one.

Speaker 71 (03:50:05):
More, time, yeah man and.

Speaker 7 (03:50:07):
You really start seeing it stack up four of. Five.

Speaker 29 (03:50:10):
Years listen it's nice to see the rivalry, back inside
back in a, real place because there were so many
years where it was just kind of a, bye week not,
you know full sec scheduling the citadel late into, the
year but it was becoming a little bit of a foe.
Gone conclusion far from. THAT now i know a lot

(03:50:33):
of people DON'T. Like pj fleck and a lot of
what he does or how he acts on, the sidelines
and he was in full fleck. Mode, Today, however man
he's done what they've wanted him, to do and that's
put them in bowl games and win their. Rivalry game
this is the BIGGEST rivalry i still believe for, both sides,
hands down, bar none and for him and them to

(03:50:56):
win it four of the last five years says they're
doing something and. Right something at least you were able
to celebrate, here Tonight Man. Jackson aker the one reception
that he makes on the night is an. INCREDIBLE one
i was really puzzled to think that they were going
to be able to overturn. That call it felt like

(03:51:18):
whatever you called on the field was going to have.
To stand but it was just such a. GREAT effort
i think they Looked at big thirty four and, they're,
like man we cannot not give him a score on,
this one because the fourth down play at the moment
gave you a whole lot of life going. Into halftime
in an incredible sensational grab he had.

Speaker 71 (03:51:35):
Denied a, big man, you know billy, and, like yeah
he's doing the. Toe tap he's got basically, both.

Speaker 70 (03:51:40):
Toes, you know.

Speaker 21 (03:51:42):
Right close gut to give him some love, for that.

Speaker 70 (03:51:43):
No doubt got to give him some love and obviously
the rivalry means something, to him, You know wisconsin's own things.
Like that, SO yeah i think there were some performances
like him going, all Out and i'm glad to see
that they did overturn it get him the benefit the
bell because it was the right. Call too to be
totally honest, About it i'm not trying to be a.
HOMER here i do think that he got both feet

(03:52:05):
in and it was just. Easing catch don glad they overturned.
Once again if we're looking toward the future and now
pretty much you know most of what we, can do
we'll talk about this game with most of what we.
WAS talking I Think cooper catalado once again ten tackles
five Solo And mincient posa, nine tackles. Six solo there's
your future. RIGHT there i think that is the bright

(03:52:26):
spot of. This team but the thing THAT and I
thought tao shit on this, very WELL and i think
it's something that we kind of touched on a little bit,
last Week and i'm sure we'll dive into More is
i'm sure a lot of people, Are, like hey we
don't even want to hear you clowns talk about the.
Postgame show for the, most part other, than futuristic we
want you to look ahead at twenty. Twenty six but,

(03:52:47):
You Know ben Barton And, darryl peterson this meant something
to those seniors and there was, strong leadership.

Speaker 71 (03:52:54):
Whether whether the record, you know benefited or.

Speaker 70 (03:52:59):
The leadership still kept his team from totally framing waiting fingers.
And whatever and that is my one concern next year
is who steps up as leaders because you do have
to fill that. Leadership void as much as, people, say
ah let's just turn the page and get onto twenty.

Speaker 29 (03:53:14):
Four one, hundred percent and as much as this is
a very transient landscape of, college football where people are going,
to come people are going, to go players are going to, be,
rented bought come in for a year. Or two maybe
you strike gold and you keep somebody for their, entire
career as crazy as that sounds, to say striking gold

(03:53:35):
and having a kai for his entire, collegiate career but that's.

Speaker 7 (03:53:38):
Kind of the way you're in.

Speaker 29 (03:53:40):
Right now you do need to find some leaders from
the youth on your football team the develop players in.
Your PROGRAM and i think you have some, of those
and you mentioned two of them right in the heart
of that defense, going forward good backbone to be able.
To enjoy AND then, i, Mean Listen darian dupree and
difficult to run the ball at certain points during the

(03:54:01):
game because they had to try to get the ball
through the air down.

Speaker 7 (03:54:04):
The field at least a, little bit even though the
yards per.

Speaker 29 (03:54:07):
Attempt might not signify that that's a dude who in
the middle of, THE year i don't know a whole
lot of people were anticipating with. It back i'll TELL
you i would be very interested in making Sure That
darian duprez a member of this team, going forward because
he showed a lot of hard a lot, of passion
and a lot of what you anticipated and thought you'd
get in the beginning of the year before he. Got

(03:54:27):
hurt dudes are really really, talented runner and you saw
that again here today in.

Speaker 70 (03:54:30):
The, elements YEAH and i, Would think billy That and
i'll just, say it, you know like, you said three
point one total on the yards per carry today was
a little tough slutting.

Speaker 71 (03:54:40):
Out There But darien duprie was four point three and
only had twelve touches twelve carries for fifty.

Speaker 70 (03:54:45):
One YARDS so i personally would have liked to have
seen him Told the rock a little bit MORE because
i agree. WITH you i think they need To do
there are no guarantees IN the, nil ERA but i
think they knew need to do everything they can, To, Say,
hey darien you're gonna be. Feature guy you look like
you have a super bright, future here and we're going
to take care, of you and we're going to make
sure that you're the lead or feature back or whatever

(03:55:07):
you want, to say and we're going to build a
large part of our offense. Around YOU and i think
that would go a. LONG way i think, you know
You Saw lance mason was put into a not maybe
put into but it was an interesting situation where nobody
knew anything about the guy and he kind of became
one of those.

Speaker 71 (03:55:23):
Glue guys billy stepped up and.

Speaker 70 (03:55:27):
Made plays didn't, do anything maybe super spectacular on, most
occasions but he. Made PLAYS and i think those are
the guys that, going forward you want to build this
program around and make sure that you're taking care of
them and try to retain as much.

Speaker 29 (03:55:43):
As possible people will talk a lot about roster construction,
and addition it's also, about retention keeping the players that
are in your program and the guys that, you want
and also not getting too caught up with the names
and the highlights and this guy's coming from nets and
oh he was at, This, place well if he's leaving,

(03:56:03):
that place there might be. A reason i think you've
seen a couple of programs be able to pluck from
the lower levels and have a whole lot more success
than grabbing from some of those.

Speaker 5 (03:56:11):

our reactions to, The, game well no one wants to
continue to. Hear ours you want to hear from the
man that was on the sidelines our locker. Room reports
as we go down inside the, Locker Room mike keller

(04:00:28):
standing By with badger's Head Coach, luke.

Speaker 17 (04:00:29):
Fickle coach one of the differences in a game like
this that's pretty, evenly matched it's going to be turnovers
and the three that you gave up and didn't get.

Speaker 7 (04:00:39):
Any that's going to be a difference in this kind of.

Speaker 1 (04:00:41):
A game it is.

Speaker 73 (04:00:41):
The difference there's, no doubt big, ONES too i mean
ones in your, red zone ones, turned over, you know
obviously incredible momentum and energy and things. Like that in
a day, like this with weather, like this it's something
that's going to, be really really difficult.

Speaker 17 (04:00:57):
To overcome you made a decision obviously the half that
you wanted to late in the, first half the last
drive and then to begin the second half to go With,
with hunter just for the ability in the.

Speaker 73 (04:01:08):
Throw, GAME yeah i mean at half it was a
little bit more on a two minute situation like we'd
done the, week before and then you just come in
at halftime and just our ability to be able to
move the football ability to maybe, you know loosen them
up a. Little bit we Felt like hunter was give
us the. Best option, you know we'd struggled a lot
in the in the first half and they had, you
know obviously done a good job and shut down the,

(04:01:30):
running game the quarterback, run game and so just felt
like it was something that was gonna give us a.

Speaker 7 (04:01:34):
Better option look.

Speaker 17 (04:01:37):
At, this point when you you just left the locker
room and visited with, those guys what do you what
can you share?

Speaker 1 (04:01:43):
With us and what you said, To, them well it's
very very.

Speaker 73 (04:01:46):
Very difficult, you know obviously the end of, a, season
true but to end like this and, you know in
a rivalry game and things, like that and, you know
to see those guys really have come a. Long way
it's it's hard to. Define success it's easy to find success.

Speaker 2 (04:02:01):
Outside of our.

Speaker 73 (04:02:02):
Locker room it's harder to define success inside our. Locker
room and That's what i've Kind of i've told them
all along that nobody defines what success. Looks like and
there's a lot of success in that locker room and
in the, older guys the seniors, in particular that have,
stuck together, hung together continued to pound, a rock been,
an example, You know and.

Speaker 7 (04:02:22):
But, it's difficult and it's it's hard.

Speaker 73 (04:02:23):
To, you know this isn't there's no consolation prizes by,
any means but there's there's a lot to be, proud
of in particular the leadership in.

Speaker 17 (04:02:31):
This team final one, for you you'll be able to
step back and give a bigger look. At it but
one of the things that you've talked about a lot,
is FINISHING and i know you would have everybody in
that locker room wanted to.

Speaker 1 (04:02:42):
Finish today But.

Speaker 17 (04:02:44):
Your november with this team was different than. Last year
they stayed together and played their best football at.

Speaker 1 (04:02:51):
The end is that something to.

Speaker 7 (04:02:53):
Build from that's what we.

Speaker 73 (04:02:54):
TALKED about, i mean this is a completely different feel
from where we were, last year and we had a, You,
know dan we had a better team last year just
the nature, of, it guys injuries and things.

Speaker 54 (04:03:04):
Like that but.

Speaker 73 (04:03:06):
This teams are a lot further along and, to me had,
you know a really a strength of leadership that gave
us a chance to, you know to have some success
the end of, the season to play better at the
end of.

Speaker 1 (04:03:16):
The season it's it's tough to.

Speaker 73 (04:03:19):
Imagine that it's tough to, you know to praise that
right now when you feel the way.

Speaker 7 (04:03:24):
You, Do coach, thank you.

Speaker 1 (04:03:26):
Appreciate it thank.

Speaker 29 (04:03:27):
You Guys mike keller standing by with the head coach
Of The, Wisconsin Badgers. Luke fickle good, conversation there Fellas On.
Bill Schmid That's lance allen after The game badgers loose
seventeen to Seven. In MINNESOTA but i thought a lot
of those words from the Head coach lance were well
said and well thought out when he says we had
a quite frankly a better team, last year but this

(04:03:48):
one had a different sense, of leadership.

Speaker 7 (04:03:50):
YOU know i think that's at least a little bit of.

Speaker 29 (04:03:53):
Something promising there's a certain section of the, fan base and,
Understandably so i'm not here to tell anybody how to
root for your favorites and your, favorite team but there's
a certain sub sub section of the FAN base i
thoroughly believe that wants to be frustrated and angry about just.
About anything whatever you could or will say would be
a problem this One From, luke, FICKLE though i think

(04:04:17):
most fans that are watching it and have watched the
games play out all twelve or a couple throughout the
season realize this is a much different football team than,
it was definitely in the Month of october where they
got shut out in bags back home games for crying,
out loud but where it was a. Year ago going into,
an offseason there is some reason to be optimistic into

(04:04:40):
the next phase of, team building which comes in the
portaland transfers along with high school recruiting and such into.
The offseason there's a whole lot better Feelings about badger
FOOTBALL than i think there were, last year even though
he got one more win at the end of.

Speaker 70 (04:04:56):
THE day i like the grit that they showed down, The.
STRETCH billy i don't think you can stress enough how
winning two games down the Stretch in november against ranked opponents.

Speaker 71 (04:05:09):
Will BOOST things. I DO and i was on Record
and i'll continue to say.

Speaker 70 (04:05:15):
IT that i think they would have even gotten more
of a boost if they could have won today and
had an axe in, the trophy k, the show, you
know for going into next season and take even more
of a bounce off, of that and maybe even, you
know there would have been a slim chance that they
would have been in a, bowl game, you, know somehow,
some way and you even gained experience. From that so,

(04:05:37):
to me the POSITIVES are i do think that they
did have. GOOD leadership i don't think that that that's not,
a misnowmer that's not just saying stuff. OR whatever i
do think they have better leadership, this YEAR and i
do think that there are some. Building blocks that, BEING
said i still think there is a ways, to go
and one of those things is this is a still

(04:05:58):
relatively young team that today, they fought but it was a.
Uphill climb you could tell almost from the jump of
winning a game on the road in a. Hostile environment,
you know the two the two games that they won
against top twenty five opponents were fortunately in the friendly
Confines Of. Camp randall and that's all fun and fun.
And great but another growth STAFF that i feel like

(04:06:21):
maybe could have been checked off the box list for
next year is a big win on, the road, you
know for a young team growing up.

Speaker 71 (04:06:31):
Even more and unfortunately they just couldn't get that.

Speaker 29 (04:06:33):
Done, today yeah it's a staggering stat to think you're
going to go an entire season without a. Road victory
hopefully this is the only year we can all remember
and talk about That the matchers don't win a, road
game and it changes up quite a bit.

Speaker 7 (04:06:47):
Next year i'll tell you this one thing that definitely changes, next.

Speaker 29 (04:06:50):
Year and it's not a it's not, an excuse it's
generally an explanation or just a statement.

Speaker 7 (04:06:58):
A fact schedule.

Speaker 29 (04:06:59):
Definitely doesn't look like it did this year in twenty,
twenty six a Far Different big ten slate on that
next year's team is going to face than this. Year's
TEAM that, i think, in totality when all the metrics,
weigh out one of the toughest in all of. College
football the schedule that this. Team faced talking about the
Leadership was. Luke fickle we'll hear from some of the

(04:07:20):
