P.J. Hill questionable for Wisky. Pardon me while I get down on Illinois -2.5

"Bob Zook has to be the laziest man alive"

by Patrick Vint on Oct 25, 2008 10:52 AM CDT reply actions  

To be fair

All week last week, John Clay scared me running the ball. As an opponent, I’d rather see the Northlands Yugo running the ball than John Clay. He’s going to be a beast.

I do have more rhymes than Jamaica got mangos.

I agree

P.J. looks like he’s run the ball 1000 times. Which, to be fair, he has.

He’s been at Wisconsin for approximately 100 years. I swear to God, it seems like he’s been there since my freshmen year, of high school, in 1992. Why won’t he just graduate?

I'm channel flipping now

I stopped briefly on Indiana-Northwestern, just in time to watch this sequence:

Indiana punt, botched and somehow taken for a first down
Indiana touchdown on some of the worst pass coverage ever
Northwestern fumbles the kick
The entire Indiana line called for a false start (seriously, that was the call by the ref)
Indiana sack for loss of 14 on 4th and 6, giving Northwestern the ball 20 yards better than they would have had it had they held the kick

THE HORROR. THE HORROR.

I'm sorry, my head exploded

After inexplicably waiting to call timeout, Illinois doesn’t send anyone deep to field the kick and Wisconsin downs it at the 1 yard line.

Except they don’t, because the punt team (which is coached by Bielema) has FIVE PLAYERS ON THE LINE and gets flagged.

Zook, not to be not outdone, still refuses to send someone deep, and Wisconsin downs it at the 7.

My head exploded.

The ‘Cats need one of their patented miracle finishes or they’ll have just lost to the worst team in the B10, assuming that Purdue secedes to the MAC , which I think is almost imminent.
