You saw two completely different games Saturday and Sunday. What were your biggest takeaways from this weekend?

Was Eastern Michigan the wrong week to call for greater innovation for the Badgers offense?

Who is/was a bigger disappointment, Mertz or Sam Okey?

Lots of (understandable) gushing about the Badgers defense after the first two games. What’s their greatest vulnerability? It is as obvious as the deep ball like what PSU did or is there something else?

If all the bars/restaurants on campus are smart enough to figure out how to fully staff their business on the biggest days of the year, is it too much to ask a multimillion dollar dept. that employs dozens of highly-paid MBAs to figure out a way to find people to sell hot dogs?

Are the Packers now the worst run sports franchise in this state? Serious question.

Looking ahead to next weekend, what's your prediction for the Ryder Cup?

Jim- do you like team USA’s chances at Whistling Straits next week? At face value, we seem young and inexperienced compared to team Europe.

How does Graham Mertz’s passing stats compare to former second year Badger QBs?

Jim, why do the Packers defensive backs continue to play off the line of scrimmage 5+ yards? Coach said it’s situational but it seems like it’s every single snap. Wouldn’t playing up on the line benefit players like King and Alexander?

I don't see GB improving - not on defense, specifically. If they continue like this, how many in-season trades will Gute pull off? Have to think Adams & Smith Brothers will be gone. King will be gone. And Rodgers....it might make sense. He was 2018 Rodgers yesterday.
