Since When Does Nebraska Impersonate Clemson...?

Or, to be more accurate, when does Wisconsin impersonate West Virginia...???

Nebraska seems to be living off their "Blackshirts" legacy instead of continuing to add to the legacy. Giving up 70 will do that...

Wisconsin destroyed the Cornhuskers 70-31 to keep the Number 12 Huskers out of the Rose Bowl after the Big Ten Championship Game in Indianapolis.

Nebraska drops to 10-3 after a 7-1 conference mark that included a Big Ten Legends Division title. The loss snapped NU's six-game winning streak and the Badgers improved to 8-5 on the year. They go to their third consecutive Rose Bowl appearance where they will face Stanford.

Start all of your talk now about the worth in that...

Wisconsin wrapped up the day with 640 total yards of offense- 202 from Montee Ball on the ground. Melvin Gordon had 216 yards to lead the Badgers.

So, Bo Pelini... Explain this one off...
((HT: BTN))


And that begs the question...
Does the Defensive Coordinator get to hang around after that display (or lack thereof)...
John Papuchis is in his first year after Carl Pelini left town...
Did he know what he was getting into...??/

3 Arrested In Montee Ball Assault Case

((HT: WISC-TV Madison))

Police have arrested three suspects in the assault on Wisconsin running back Montee Ball. Ball sustained a concussion when he was attacked by several men near campus August 1st. All three are listed as Wisconsin students- Wendell J. Venerable, Deonte J. Wilson and Robert A. Wilks.

They were all arrested on charges of "party to the crime of substantial battery."

Ball has said he had nothing to do with the fight on the 1st.

On Wilson's Facebook page he had posted a status update, according to WISC-TV. It read, in part, "I have been non-violent for well over a year now, yet they are trying to crucify me because somebody has to take the blame..."

Here's the run-down with Sarah Carlson...

Reports say Ball was checked out at the hospital as a precaution but his injuries were not serious.

For those who don't know, Ball, a rising senior,  is considered a potential Heisman Candidate by many after a huge season last year where he scored 39 touchdowns, tying an NCAA record.
