It was 20 some losses but there was a tie in the middle of the streak with Iowa. The Badgers finished the season something like 0-9-1 and Iowa was 1-8-1. I remember listening to the game on the radio and the Badgers had some kind of a miracle comeback to get a tie and the announcers were going off like they won the Super Bowl. John Coatta was the coach and he won 3 games in 3 seasons, the first two which were winless.

Nebraska and Wisconsin are similar programs this year.   Lots of hype but really sloppy inconsistent play and tons of miscues that probably resulted in at least a couple of more Ls than need be.  

Was nice to see Allen gut it out and credit to Mordecai he kept them in it.   Zachman also impressed me with his instincts and playmaking ability.

Beating Minnesota next week doesn’t erase the stink off this season, but it would go a long way toward building some positive momentum going into bowl season and next year.
