Deal looks a lot like Montee Ball and runs with an attitude. I think he will eventually replace Dare O as the backup. Dare can really excel as a 3rd down guy given his ability to catch the ball
Wheelwright again!!
Nice back shoulder work by Stave and Wheel!
TD BUCKY!!!
We have been waiting for a while for Wheelright to step up and maybe he's finally there. Kid has a lot of talent and would be great to have another good WR target
Erickson, Wheelwright and McElvoy, finally some talent and depth at WR.
Really impressed with Wheelwright's performance.
It certainly is refreshing.
Now if we can work out the running game, we'll really have something this year. The D seems like it's coming along nicely so far this year.
I'd pull Stave here
Might as well get him one more successful drive.
Starting to see some promise for this year's team. Now to get the running game going.
TD Deal!! Kinda wish Dare O could have gotten that one.
TD Dare O!! Great sweep play and nice speed!
And there goes the broadcast to streaming only...
Good game Bucky!
Did they "establish their identity" yet?
I would say no, not completely. But you could almost say a D based squad.
Also, Stave has looked fantastic and seems to have worked on the back shoulder pass with Wheelwright.
It's promising for sure.
F'em Bucky!
Stave is still just a shade shy on his passes, but so much better than last year where guys had to stop in their tracks all the time for his passes. Oline is a major work in progress, and better defensive lines will eat them up. Gonna need to dial up some screens to help those hogs out.
I know I hate McEvoy at QB, but I can't tell if I like him at WR or DB more.
I agree- the OL had trouble making a mark in that first Q... And we have seen what a dominant Badger OL does to teams like this. This was not a dominant performance.
Deal looks like a solid back, and Ogunbowale looked good in the open field. Unlike him out of he backfield in the passing game.
And it is time for someone to emerge in that WR corps. Wheelright has stepped forward- gotta do it every week, now. Like that Traylor has developed into a pretty reliable target, as well. The 'ol Chryst 2 TE system should work well when Fumugali comes back.
Good day overall though. Stave continues to show he can lead this offense.

Need to be more creative in the run game. Stave can make the throws if he is given time. Looks like there may be more than one receiver which is good.
Wheelwright was a 4 star prospect when he arrived in Madison and I thought he would be the next great Badgers WR out of the state of Ohio but it's simply jot materialized. He's been hurt a lot and until this year I question his maturity (paging Reggie Love) but it looks like he may finally have turned the corner and that makes this Wisconsin passing game pretty strong. Wheelwright is a big target that can stretch the field.
It also looks like their punting game has taken a step forward - and while you wouldn't think it's a big deal think back to last year where it hurt them.
The DL played significantly better today and was very impressed with how they got pressure on the QB and stuffed the run. The completion was totally different today but our guys weren't getting blown off the ball.
The OL must get better - hope they figure it out soon

OT but rich. #karma
@ClayTravisBGID: Arkansas losing to Toledo after an entire season of their fans talking about winning the SEC title is the most Arkansas result possible.
Thanks for that cuq.
Definitely not off topic! Beelmah sucking is never off topic.

@JeffSchultzAJC: So Bret Bielema rips Ohio State's cupcake schedule, then loses to Toledo. Sounds about right.
So Harbaugh blew a gasket in the Mich ORSt game today.
