Football is Life, and…what the…that’s some kind of typo, right?

November 13, 2010

No, it sure isn’t. Wisconsin 83, Indiana 20. Eleven Badger touchdowns. The Badgers outscored the Hoosiers, by quarter, 10-7; 28-3; 21-3; and 24-7.

I was actually getting embarrassed, we were scoring so much. I mean dear God.

Why couldn’t it have been Michigan?

Yes, the fact we were still passing in the fourth quarter nudges my conscience. But the Badgers had all their second-stringers in by that point, and probably wanted to get them some experience running the real offense.

Eighty-three points. A school record, and with our first-string running back injured, and on the bench. We only put 70 points up on Austin Peay State, whose 2-5 record puts them second-from-the-bottom of the Ohio Valley Conference.

Ever hear of the Ohio Valley Conference? No. Know why? Because they’re small.

I’ve never even heard of a team scoring 83 points.

Seventy-six…oh, Lord…seventy-seven…come on, one more…seventy….hrrgggh….eight

If touchdowns were beer, we’d need a new mop. Because nobody can drink that much, that fast. Not even in Wisconsin.

    Now if this was a PC high-school team, the principal would be scolding the coach and the team for winning so big, and the Badgers would have to issue a formal apology for whuppin’ the Hoosiers so badly.
