This game was on the defense

I do believe we've got some kind of curse on us. No matter the coach, our team has had collective mental breakdowns since Black Friday 2001. Every year there has been an embarrassing blowout. It's systemic and it never matters who the head coach is. Call a witch doctor!

Seems that way. GBR

there is no dammed curse. it's called poor preparation and slooowww to make adjustments. we have to wait a full half to make any defensive adjustments. we wait a full week to make offensive adjustments. and if we wait around with our collective up our rear ends we will wait another couple years to make a headcoaching adjustment.

pick 6 makes a 14 point swing, not poor prep at all, just poor play called. It destroyed the morale and started another here we go moment.
 



yea Wisconsin makes an adjustment after their pick 6 and shoves it down our throats. note no adjustments made on the defense until maybe this week. unable to react during the same half

Not the goal, but the game
In the deed, the glory.

What's all this talk about winning or adjustments?

Yes there is! Its called the curse of the 9. When you fire a 9-win coach (Solich and Pelini) and replace them with West Coast offense guys who think they can recruit and finesse their way to success in the Midwest, you are condemned to a losing season in your 1st year and then it eventually becomes intolerable.

Callahan and Riley both recruited QBs named Lee. That should convince you that the curse is real.

Oh please give it up. Solich had his opportunities and when Osborne recruits were gone, he was too. Callahan had noose around his neck called Cosgrove but he could recruit. Pelini could coach but he couldnt recruit. When BC's recruits were gone, Pelini went beserk. If you check out Riley, you will see his recruiting is right up there with Turbin Meyers...If you want to know what his down fall it is its Danny Pick 6 Langendorf. Case closed.
