UNI @ Wisconsin

[Herdman]

If you can't make the trip Madison (a.k.a Madtown for those of you who like using nicknames) the game is scheduled to be shown on BTN (the Big Ten Network for those of you who get easily confused by acronyms).

The folks I've talked to in Wisconsin say they know little or nothing about UNI football. You know that isn't the case among the UW football coaches, but I do hope it runs deep in the level of interest with the players and the Panthers are able to pull off the upset.

We will learn a lot about the UNI defense as the Badger offense will get cranked up on the ground. But you know they will test their new transfer QB against what I'm sure they think is "lesser" opponent. May be UNI can get some pressure up front against UW's new OL and that turns into some bad passes and even a pick or two...or more.

Go Panthers!

Coach Mark Farley got his team’s attention last week by pulling out a picture of Appalachian State quarterback Armanti Edwards celebrating that 34-32 victory at No. 5 Michigan in 2007.

“He was like, ‘Are you guys prepared to do this?’ ” Anderson recalled. “It kind of just sent goosebumps through me.”

YouTube Badger Breakdown: Northern Iowa

A few things:
The two guys are standing in front of Section X. If that's where you're sitting, that's close to your view. Diagonally opposite and in the upper deck, that's where you'll be seated if you have a double letter ticket.

****
The church steeple in the background behind Lucas and Lepay is at the corner of Breese Terrace and Johnson Street. Breese runs along the western side of the stadium up to Regent Street. That's where the rowdy young folks hang out.

On the eastern side of the encampment is Randall Avenue. (There's a small parklike grassy area between the avenue and the stadium. ) At Johnson Street and Randall is the brand new Union South. Families and older folks tend to dominate there.

They also offer food and drink, including beer.

The UW band plays a pre-game concert there and will play your school's fight song one time there and one time during their pre-game performance at the stadium.

*****
Montee Ball has been held out of contact drills. He has never lost a fumble during his career. Your guys, who like to generate turnovers, might be able to get a fumble out of him early in the game before he gets his game legs under him.

*****
They start talking about Northern Iowa at the 4:20 mark. Waay too general.

Re: UNI @ Wisconsin

absolutely love the talk we get from WI fans, everyone has been knowledgable. Even on their board some have predicted large blowouts, other fans have stepped in and demanded respect. Very, very impressed so far.

Re: UNI @ Wisconsin

Thanks for all the info! Where would you suggest us cheapskates park? I assume the further you get from the stadium the easier it is?

Re: UNI @ Wisconsin

i am not offended by UW fans picking a large blowout. we do not match up well with their strength and we are starting a raw QB while missing 2 key players on offense. i can always hope though.

Some say Lot 60. I always liked parking near the Square and walking down State Street, but the walk back is a bit of a pain.

(There are buses, but I'm not sure it's actually possible to get one back to the Square after the game.)

My prediction for the game was 34-7.

Re: UNI @ Wisconsin

How awesome would it be to play at Camp Randall and test your might with a Big Ten team? Best I ever got to do in HSFB was ride the bench in a game at the Dome

Throw in the App. State note from above, these guys should have no trouble being fired up tomorrow
