Check out this week's Open Jim podcast, with special guest Colten Bartholomew. My BadgerExtra colleague broke down where the University of Wisconsin football team stands through four games and coming out of its bye week.
Of the remaining games on the football teams schedule barring any other major injuries have you changed your mind on how they will finish and do you agree Ohio State looks to be the only sure loss remaining

Bryson Green was going to be a go to receiver but has been almost invisible-why? And to take it to a more macro view, the receivers seem to have problems getting separation in general. TM has to make some pretty remarkable passes into tight windows. Any reason why?

After four games, has Quarterback Tanner Mordecai lived up to your expectations before the season began, and with 8 games remaining in his eligibility, what should Badger fans look forward to next season at the position?

Mordecai has twice as many rushing TDs as he has thrown. He’s on pace to surpass Wilson’s single season rushing yardage by a QB but is this a good thing after we saw a few starting QBs go down over the weekend including Iowa while running the ball?

If Mike Tressel gets the Michigan State Head Coach role, do the Badgers stick with the defensive 3-3-5 scheme? If so, how does that impact current recruiting efforts?

Kelly Sheffield has established an amazing winning culture. I'm sure assistants have contributed a great deal. What's the liklihood of losing one or more to head coaching jobs in the near future? Any concerns about Kelly's ability to reload and maintain the high standards set?

Give us the optimists' take on the Brewers' playoff offense. The pessimists' take is easy to make: brutal recent playoff offense and easily shutdown in big games in 2023 (ex: Wainwright's last game, coming in with a ~9 ERA).

Here’s an item that’s crossed my mind often: Have you felt more impatience now of “Win it all or it’s a failure” in your career covering sports? We miss the journey if we can’t hope for championships but applaud the season. All sports. Even Brewers ‘fans’ with their youth.
