Are either of you guys going to the game? If not, I look forward to the GNT.

I'm not. Close to 300 bucks a pop now and I don't have student tix.

I didn't even see this quote: "It's definitely going to be a priority," Gilbert said of delivering hits on Martinez. "I mean, let's face it, he's a soft kid.

"It happens a lot with quarterbacks: They come into Camp Randall, they find things that aren't going their way and no one's on their side, coach is yelling at them, players yelling at him — that leads to discord that is self-imploding," Gilbert said.

"They'll be in their environment, but when your crowd starts booing you, what are you going to do? How are you going to respond? That's the kind of response we're going to find out from Taylor Martinez on Saturday."

Seriously who IS this fuckin kid?

 

[Red_Alert]

Gilbert won't even start this weekend.

Seems like you know...

He's got a bitch voice too. That little girl isn't intimidating anyone.

Yup. Bielema benched him. For any onlookers, here's what got Gilbert benched. I'm not sure if he's just not starting, or if he's full on benched.

“We have to stop the run,” he said. “He isn’t going to beat us throwing the ball.”

Gilbert told ESPNMadison.com:

“It still looks like he’s skipping rocks out there.”

Bielema's quote in response...

He'll (Gilbert) be skipping rocks on the sideline with me.

 

[Red_Alert]

I'm sure he'll play, just not on the first series.

He's drawn the media attention to himself tho, so I figure we'll be hearing his statements a few times Saturday night.

I'm not going to the game (going to watch Russell on Sunday instead). Not sure if i'll be on SportsHoopla or at a bar somewhere.

LOL, some quality stiff right there. I'm sure that dinged the kids ego a little bit.

You could tell the kid is cocky as hell too. Hilarious. You had to know he was going to hear it from his coaches, but that just shows how much of a non contributor loud mouth he is that he is benched.

Sorry Gilby. You pulled a Kanye bro.

Isn't Wiscy paper-thin at DE already?

Our top guys are all banged-up, though to be honest, our top guys suck. DE has been the weak spot on our team each of the last two years.

So getting serious here, who do you guys have?

Who will start? Will you have to pull redshirts? Play Walk-ons? (nothing wrong with that) Guys who have never played a game?

Bret Bielema on David Gilbert's comments: 'He'll be skipping rocks on the sideline w/ me for the first play

One play. So a thinly veiled fire extinguisher that really means nothing. He's got a great PR guy.

 

[Brasky]

The whole thing is hilarious to me. This is exactly what you preach to your players NOT to do.

You just gave your opponent a competitive advantage before the ball is even kicked off.
