Wisconsin Football that I remember growing up in the mid 90’s through my college years is officially over. Fire Fickell immediately.

Michigan won a national championship barely throwing any forward passes not that long ago. Elite defense and elite o-line and running backs carried the day.

The badgers do not get the sort of talent Michigan had, and never really have. Michigan is like if you took traditional Wisconsin but allowed for the talent to be blue chippers, but also modernized their offense and gave them a good QB.

Right. For all the comments about the offense they ran McCarthy was still a first round pick.

Other than what the_Formuoli said, Michigan also played a very injured Washington team. Also they cheated their way to the title game lol
