Bucky will play Oklahoma State in the Guaranteed Rate Bowl. Game is Dec. 27th in Phoenix at 9:15 CST time. Game is on ESPN. Our first look at Luke Fickell coaching in some form.

Interesting match up. Pretty good draw all things considered.
not a done deal?
Luke Fickell says there's no timetable to get an answer from Jim Leonhard as to whether or not he's staying.

Added they've met three times and Leonhard has a "million options."
"I know one thing. There's no rush." #Badgers
The plot thickens
Another late ass start time for a bowl game that doesn't matter
A little more on Okie State. Lost 4 of their last 5 games. Their main QB, Spenser Sanders has 57. 6% completion rate, 17 TDs and 9 INT. He has also rushed 107 times for 391 yards. The main RB is Dominic Richardson. He's rushed 149 times for 543 yards and 8 TD. Pretty good kicker, 40/40 on PAT and 21/22 on FG with a long of 52.
Best defender looks to be a safety, Jason Taylor. Led the team with 72 solo tackles and 6 INT.
Maybe Mertz can transfer there and play in the game?
OKlahoma State this week lost the following players
(Transfers) QB Spencer Sanders HB Dom Richardson WR Braylin Presely S Thomas Harper DL Trace Ford S Kanion Willams LB Mason Cobb
(NFL draft) DL Tyler Lacy DL Brock Martin DT Brendon Evers
Wisconsin favored by 5, for what it is worth, LOL
A bowl game without either starting QB. A bunch of nfl level talent gone. Kinda a scrimmage.
What's the point of bowl games with the transfer portal? Teams missing multiple players that they aren't even the same team from the season?
The answer to most questions is money

It does give the underclassmen a chance to play another game. National exposer is never a bad thing for those young guys if they have NFL talent. Also alumni that live in the area of the bowl can go watch the guys play.
Maybe they need to change the transfer portal to open on Jan. 10 instead of December. Even for players whose coaches have left or got fired.
A little more on who's out, about halfway down the page.
Has there ever been a Badger bowl game with this little interest? Has a Qb been named yet?
Not sure PP but we will just use this as the official game thread, that is if anybody watches and posts.
If I can stay awake, I'll watch.
Watch the 1st half, may hit the sack and have radio on low for the second half. If I fall asleep, so be it.

I think last year..ASU? Didnβt watch because of start time. Same today.
#Badgers senior QB Chase Wolf is starting tonight. Don't be surprised to see Myles Burkett as well, unless Wolf is having a great game.

Do I need to chase around to find a 9:15 Tuesday night bowl game?
9:25 game apparently
A team in the booth
Took a week of vacation to spend time with the in-laws, who come to find out Donβt have espn so I have to stream the damn game on my phone.
still wish all the good luck to JL
3-0 dominance!
Chryst would have punted
I thought Mertz was gone.
Lovely D
Need to tackle better than that.
That was an embarrassing effort by the D.
What's with dem Cowboys pants? Kicker looks like he came straight from a soccer game.
Oh, that's what a successful fake punt looks like.
Everybody go to bed already?
Second bad drop for the Badgers.
Third bad drop
That's the ticket!
Nice drive.
