okay, so this is not the badgers, but i'm watching syracuse and washington state. washington state is going through the same kind of $#!+ that the badgers are with the portal. they lost their starting qb, their starting right tackle and several other players including their primary defensive linemen, as well as some coaches. none of the pregame announcers gave them a chance of winning this game. but they are leading 21-14 as the second quarter starts. the players are all fired up and performing well as a team in all three facets. they scored td #2 on a long pass play, and td#3 on a blocked punt/scoop and score. it's still early, so who knows if they can keep this up. but their not just rolling over.
