You have 1 job. And you did it well this time. 
Scary.
To be accurate (and fair) he threw it from the 12, 8 yards into theEZ…20 yards.
A major accomplishment.
Wow.
This D.
What was that hop for? He keeps running and that is 7
The D hands you first and goal and you get 0? That’s embarrassing…
3 rd down play poorly designed or executed,
So the best can get is 2 out of the turnover… hope they get it. The defense cannot be happy with what their counterparts are producing…
Wow.
This D is the best Badger defense I've ever seen.

Agree and the Iowegians are helping.
Or they can give it back to them and say “Ok, now don’t fuck it up again…” lol…

????? Is right
Mertz reverts.
Good grief… Iowa just giving this one away…
So no Braelon Allen here? Gonna give the ball to the guy who doesn’t break tackles?
No, the Badgers are taking it away. Give some crdit where it is due.
That’s not on Mertz… that’s shit play calling.

Just texted that to my nephew and then he reverts back to the Mertz we all know and love. NOT.
Allen sitting on the sideline- is he hurt or something?
First drive of second half. 2 yard run followed by Mertz changing the play to throw into triple coverage. 3rd down pass was OK, but he clearly saw something on second down that wasn't there.
It’s simply stupid not to play Allen. The Iowa defense doesn’t fear him. Why would they? He’s not a threat to go the distance every time he has the ball. But when Allen is there, a 4 yard run can turn into 75 with a single cut and a missed tackle. So if Melussi’s in the game, you actually thank them.
Terrible pass, could have been 6 the other way
If I'm on the Badger defense, I go up and down the bench and stick my foot up the ass of every offensive player.
Re: Commercials.
Didn't white people used to be the majority population in this country?
Mertz is trying to keep Iowa in the game. Almost a killer interception there on third down when he locked onto a guy early. The early down play calls by Chryst are designed to make sure Mertz doesn't screw something up. The last few drives have been like the late 1970s Packers: Run for a short gain, run a short gain, pass on 3rd and long, punt/kick.
Seems to me that PC called the first quarter to boost Mertz confidence. And it looked like it was working…he looked pretty good. I almost fell for it.
I guess I can get fooled again.
Defense has obviously not been the problem, but what's with not wrapping up on a lot of these hits the last few drives?

Limo Emu is white under the feathers.

7 incompletions in a row. A couple of those were good decisions to throw the ball away, but it makes it hard to run if there is no threat of a deep pass.
What should have been a knockout blow in the first half is now going to beat a potentially close game.
