Ya gotta applaud those bunnies for sacrificing their hearing just so some guy in Cupertino can have better TV reception.

Let me tell you, Mad Town is abuzz with this #2 ranking of the Badgers. Highest ranking in school history! If we can keep these wins a coming, soon we could make it to #1.

Quite a run for UW sports as of late smile.gif

Funny - I haven't heard any hype about this game yet.

That's because you don't live in Madison. Trust me, there's lots of hype over the game smile.gif

Giantmike...I know of what you speak. Anyone who lives within a stones throw of a major university and some not so major, knows how the hype can build. Believe me...we'll hear plenty of hype tomorrow, er I guess that would be today. Especially, tonight during the Buckeye vs Iowa game; since the Wisconsin vs Illinois game will be over. Good luck to your Badgers. biggrin.gif

WOW.gif that was a close one...Illinois almost pulled it off.  Wisconsin hung real tough at the end.


An interesting aside...Bo Ryan  does a mean Ham bone! biggrin.gif

Wisconsin has had a bunch of those down to the wire type games. Hopefully the winning close games trend doesn't reverse as the season continues (I have seen it happen with too many of my favorite teams).

Nevertheless, a great win and some great entertainment from Bo smile.gif

There were a couple of blown calls late in the game that hurt us. But, if you've got the better team, you overcome those things. Our team is hurting physically right now. I think they will gel when everyone is healthy. The Badgers didn't get rattled, and that's why they won a squeaker.
