Game thread for Wisconsin vs. Northwestern

[lou v]

It's a crisp, sunny and spectacular day in Evanston. It's pretty windy today, though, which will impact the passing and kicking games, I'm sure.

I am the only one on Astro’s zoom chatroom. Lol.

 

[Go Catz]

Go cats! Seems like a lot of fans think we can win this one, but Vegas doesn't think so - line still has Wisconsin by 19.

 

[phatcat]

Not much of a crowd considering Wisconsin.

 

[AdamOnFirst]

**** the haters, the gothics are sick

 

[phatcat]

This movie seems...familiar

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Lol. Long day, huh?

Dodnt Braelon Allen say last year it was like NU’s LBs didn’t seems like they really wanted to hit him?

 

[AdamOnFirst]

XANDER MUELLER USE THE CORRECT SHOULDER FFS

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Paul Chryst has to be pissed he didn’t get a chance to get right vs our defense

 

[chicagocatfan24]

Fantastic tackling thus far

 

[Go Catz]

C'mon defense. Make the tackle.

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Thank God Graham Mertz sucks ass

 

[phatcat]

Whew. Forgot Mertz sucks

 

[Go Catz]

MISS!!!!

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Lol

Guy blitzing and still nobody open

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Navarro is not, like, good

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Guy blitzing and still nobody open

WRs stink, also it’s a 3-4

 

[Go Catz]

Navarro is not, like, good

Coaches have him as #2, I guess that's the best we've got

 

[NU Houston]

Why do I feel such a sense of futility watching this offense in action?

 

[phatcat]

Navarro is not, like, good

Didn't notice on second one but both passes.seemed too tall for Shaq to.catch

 

[Go Catz]

Seems like Mueller is always in the wrong gap

 

[Go Catz]

Unsportsmanlike on Butler... Ugh.

 

[NU Houston]

Are these exotic schemes that Wisconsin is running? The defense looks confused.

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Didn't notice on second one but both passes.seemed too tall for Shaq to.catch

Oh, I agree totally, but he also wasn’t remotely open either time. He rarely ever is.

 

[chicagocatfan24]

These guys blow

 

[TheC]

This is the worst defense I’ve seen in a long time.

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Are these exotic schemes that Wisconsin is running? The defense looks confused.

Exotic scheme like “WR runs slant and go”

 

[CatManTrue]

JOOOOOOOOON! Ugh.

 

[BFDCat]

Jesus christ. Defense looks terrible again.

 

[The Purple Knight]

I know it’s a broken record but Gallagher is slow and a poor tackler. Really shouldn’t be playing in the Big ten.

 

[AdamOnFirst]

This is the worst defense I’ve seen in a long time.

Don’t be dramatic. It’s just as bad as we’ve seen all year!

 

[Go Catz]

Wisconsin is fired up, not in disarray, after losing to Illinois and losing their coach. This could get ugly.

 

[TheC]

Don’t be dramatic. It’s just as bad as we’ve seen all year!

I meant this year

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Amazing how we suddenly don’t look so good when the defense isn’t playing in a Hurricane

 

[IMC Cat]

Cam Mitchell: overrated

 

[NU Houston]

Ugh. What the hell was Cam thinking there?

 

[AdamOnFirst]

I meant this year

Don’t be dramatic: this year’s defense is better than last year’s!
