Wisconsin plays Michigan, Indiana, Maryland, and Rutgers

Minnesota plays Michigan, Michigan State, Indiana, and Maryland

Iowa plays Ohio State, Penn State, Michigan State, and Maryland
Nebraska plays Ohio State, Penn State, Michigan State, and Rutgers

Looks like the B1G is trying to ensure that Wisconsin and Ohio State meet for the B1G Championship.

Ohio State gets Illinois, Purdue(no Rondale Moore), Nebraska, and Iowa in Columbus. Playing Iowa in Iowa City is tough, but having Iowa in Columbus is a win for Ohio State. The other three crossover games for Ohio State are easy wins.

Ohio State will be 6-0 when they meet Michigan.

Wisconsin will be 7-0 when they meet Michigan. Wisconsin plays Michigan after the Michigan Ohio State game. Either Michigan will be super deflated from losing or maybe angry for losing. Either way, Wisconsin will probably win the Michigan game.

Mr Graham Mertz

Not a bad first game in your redshirt freshman season!

He tied or set 3 school records in his first start!

He completed 21 out of 22 passes for 248 years and 5 TDs

The records are as follows:

He had his first 17 passes in a row completed - that tied a school record
He had the highest completion percentage ever in a game for the Badgers at .952%
He tied a record for throwing 5 TD passes in a game

I was surprised at the 5 TD record i figured that would be higher but I guess Bucky been mostly running TDS

Mertz is the best QB Wisconsin has had since Russell Wilson.

Penn state screwed up, however they got fucked with that last call of the game. Indiana did not get in. How could they blow that?

It was against Illinois. Kid may end up being a star, but might want to slow your roll here

Didn't quote it right, but that was in response to @G N G and @LambeauLegs

I will say this. Ryan Day tried really hard to recruit Mertz. That tells me the kid is going to be a superstar. I do however agree that it's still too early. As for Russell Wilson. He only played what only one year for Wisky? He was a transfer, was not recruited by Wisky like Mertz was.

I know Covid got everyone an extra year of eligibility, and with red shirting and applying for an additional year because of major injuries and such that people have gained a 6th year of eligibility, but damn, 7 years??? lol That seems a little much. I turned 19 the summer after I graduated hs, so if I had been given 7 years, I'd be 26 during my final year, lol. And some frosh start right away, so you could have 26 year olds competing on the same fields as 18 year olds?

Fing Covid screwed everything up. Cept for people like this guy who could get 2 degrees by the time he's done, all paid for by the 2 universities.

Mostly Big East teams, and I had Iowa losing to PSU? I heard what? PSU lost their starting QB? I saw Iowa fans bragging about it. So any team whose Starting QB can finish a game vs Iowa and that will be the team to beat Iowa?
