It’s Pablo & Jim on The Jump Around! Today they ask the question, which stat is more damning in the Luke Fickell era, his 0-8 record against Top 25 teams or his 2-4 record in trophy games? They quickly recap the Michigan game before previewing potentially the Badgers most winnable game the rest of the season against Iowa. The guys also talk about the incredibly low over/under for Wisconsin's game this weekend, which, while typically for Iowa, may reflect how inept the Badgers offense has been this season. Finally, Riley takes the guys into the Twitter Portal involving some Big Noon, RBU, and coaching comparison conversations before former Wisconsin punter, host of Kyle, Brust, and Nortman, and fake punt extraordinaire Brad Nortman joins the show!
