Badgers did defer. Letβs go Bucky.

Good start for the defense.
Good drive
Ha ha, bad time out called eh??
Good time for a 97 yard TD drive.
Horrible decision (and throw) by Mertz.
Not a good offensive series. Nine yards on first down and then nothing.
Bullshit blindside block call.
How the heck was that a penalty?!?!?!
That was a horrible call on Bucky......
So, if Mertz could have kept from making terrible decisions, they'd be pitching a shutout right now.
Do these refs even understand football? The blindside block call on Allen was done by a blind ref.
Not good pocket awareness from Mertz.
Can Mertz be forced into the transfer portal? I don't think I can take another year.
D P I Michigan State
Eschenbach moves the chains
Vunovich with a great punt, to 5he 2 yard line.
Thought the EZ play was more poor throw than good defensive play.
Some kind of missed tackles by Bucky.
This is the worst tackling I've seen by a Wisconsin defense in a long time.
Wisconsin is not very good. Not sure how they are going to make a decision on whether to keep Leonhard based on the dumpster fire the program is right now .
Drive to the MSU up 7 and then proceed to throw 3 times? Is MLF calling plays?
And we are tied....
I'm not sure Leonard can put together a staff that can recruit. His only college connections are at the UW. We need a huge talent infusion. If he doesn't get the job that will be why.

They are going to have to use the transfer portal to supplement things next year. Of course, a better QB would solve a lot of things. Of course, if Mertz were half of what he was projected by some to be, Chryst would still be here.
Iβm entering the fan transfer portal and going to Alabama.
Dare I say, the 2nd half Badgers are looking like the 2nd half Packers???
Sack.
Mertz has no pocket awareness at all
Easy to sack the QB when you're unblocked.
The OL is not up to Wisconsin standards, but Mertz has no pocket presence at all and the only think he can do is throw check downs. The problem is that guys that throw check downs usually are very safe with the ball. He's not.
Michigan State has a shit defense and we have 14 pts.
Besides having a scatter arm Mertz has zero pocket awareness. He's going to get a receiver hurt the way he leads them into the defender. Until he's gone Wisconsin really can't move forward.
Not many, if any Sunday players on this team

I think it's all the same problem. He has no field awareness whether it's in the pocket or in reading defenses. The really good QBs have an idea where everyone is on the field and have a feel for the game. Mertz has all the physical tools, but he still looks like a freshman in terms of the mental part of the game. He's been here FOUR years.
What a horrific throw by Mertz. Very lucky obviously.
The MSU defender didn't move the entire play. How can you not see that?
Mertz is a dipshit.
