Rose Bowl Shootout Ends In Disaster

This is Wisconsin's 2nd Rose Bowl appearance in 2 years, and it is also their second loss in 2 years. last year it came down to a 2 pt conversion that went the wrong way but this year it was another uncharacteristic mistake by Russel Wilson with an unsuccessful spike. Though the badgers did lose it was an interesting game down to the last second, and it also had the highest scoring first half in a Rose Bowl game ever.

No More Distractions

The Packers hopes for a perfect season are now over thanks to their loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, but now all the talk and hype are gone they are just another team trying to win a super bowl. Their next game is against the Chicago Bears on Christmas Day and they will finish up the season with the Detroit Lions on New Years. This will be their second meeting against both teams after beating them the first time around, This time when we played the Bears they had both Jay Cutler, and Matt Forte in the game but this time both will be sidelined with injuries.     

Tasting Perfection

 Its Week 14 and the Green Bay Packers still have a perfect season well with in reach after their 46-16 routing of the Oakland Raiders. The packers defense got us started quick with an interception only three minutes into the game leading to a 47YD TD run by Ryan Grant (getting the start due to injury to James Starks). Then its Aaron Rodgers turn throwing a 4YD TD to Ryan Taylor (first NFL touchdown, 18th different Receiver with TD). In the second quarter Rodgers would throw his second TD of the game on a 37YD strike to Jordy Nelson (Even when the Raiders had 12 men on the field), and that would be his final TD pass of the game because he would be sat down in the third quarter and replaced by Matt Flynn to preserve him for later games. Aaron aslo tied Brett Favre's record of 39 TD passes in a season.

Rematch For The Rose Bowl

Wisconsin came out of the gate on fire scoring on three straight drives to end the first quarter with a 14 point lead.  But in the second quarter Michigan State scored 22 unanswered points to take the lead 29-21 into halftime. In the third quarter Russell Wilson connected with Jared Abbrederis for a 42 yard touchdown pass for our first score in 24 minutes, but our defense couldn’t force a stop and the Spartans still held and 8 point lead ending the 3^rd quarter. In the fourth quarter the magic happened once again as Russell Wilson and Montee Ball put up 14 fourth quarter points and a 2PT conversion to lead the badgers to their second rose bowl appearance in two years…..GO BADGERS!!!!

Thanksgiving Weekend "Thankful for Winning"

Green bay did it again this Thanksgiving as they remaind perfect against the now 7-4 Lions in their NFC north showdown on thrusday. The Packers offense started slow and didnt score untill late in the second quarter, thanks to the great play by their defense the packers maintained a 7 point lead heading into halftime. In the second half the offense woke up and threw on another 20 points (thanks in part to the ejection of Ndamukong Suh), but so did the lions offence throwing on 15 points in the fourth quarter to make it look like a game. But the Packers held on to win 27-15.

Packers 27, Lions 15

The 16th ranked Badgers also had a great thanksgiving rolling over 19th ranked Penn State in their final Big Ten game of the regular season. Wisconsin got the ball first but was forced to punt leading to the 44 yard TD pass to Curtis Drake (Penn States only score of the game). On the following possesion wisconsin marched down the field and Russle Wilson connected with Jared Abbrederis for their only score in the first quarter. In the second quarter the high power'd offense of wisconsin exploadid with three TD's, 2 of wich belonged to none other than Montee Ball putting him at 32 on the season. in the 3rd quarter Wisconsin continued their routing as Montee Ball put on 2 more Touchdowns bringing his game total to 4 and his season total to 34 (only 6 away from breaking Barry Sanders alltime record of 39 in one season). And in the forth quarter the badgers topped of their lead by adding a field goal to make the score 45-7 to end the game and to propell themselves into the Big Ten Championship game in a remach against Michagan St. for a spot in the Rose Bowl.

Wisconsin sports had a great weekend as the packers held on agianst the Buccaneers for the win despite poor defensive play, and the Badgers football teem though slow in the first half resorted to their old ways in the second half to pull off a W.
