Give it to me straight, Doc
Slow start. Passing stats look great on paper.

Defense finally got a couple turnovers.
OL inability to consistently open holes again is a real concern and QB should not be leading rusher.
Next week will tell us a lot.
Give me more of that
Most complete game in quite some time. The team looked like they were having fun it was great to see

Found what I'm looking for
Waited 3 years and 3 games for this game. Unfortunately, I have no confidence I’ll see a game like it again.

Mission accomplished
I wanted to see them get turnovers, mission accomplished

A promising game plan
Get Colton Joseph on the run and get RPOs to Harris. Could be a lot of fun. He's much more relaxed on the move

More like it
I was happy with the performance. Can’t remember the last time we drubbed an inferior opponent the way we are supposed to. Still iffy on the run game, but I loved special teams, the pass game, creating turnovers, etc.

Overall…pretty solid performance. On to PSU.
What I like to see
Not to be arrogant, but Q1 was ugly. I don’t think I’m delusional to believe the effort from 2nd Q on was a helluva lot better, the competitive spirit is what you’d want to see.

Staying positive
Expected. If anything less, I'm on the fire Fickel band wagon.....not yet though.

Pony up for the next one
One day, UW will have the kind of program where victory is never in question in games where it shouldn't be. In the meantime, Badgers fans should take a bunch of positives from the last three quarters, subscribe to Peacock and see what that means at Penn State!

Hey negative Nelly
Nice to see them moving the ball and gettin’ the W, but my gut tells me they’re going to get steamrolled by the rest of the B1G.
