Wisconsin’s players

were noticeably chippier than our guys. Little extra shoves after the whistle, that kind of stuff. It bothered me early that we seemed to just be taking it, especially listening to blowhard Jason Garrett constantly reminding how we were getting outplayed (not that he was entirely wrong, but it got old hearing him point it out).

Good coaching says don’t get caught being the retaliatory guy giving extracurriculars, he’s the one who often gets penalized. But do we have any “dawg” in us?

The way we took care of business in the second half has me hoping and thinking that this team is indeed focused on the big picture. “Sure, get your little shove in. Do your extra little dance. After I’m done kicking your ass for 60 minutes and the scoreboard reflects that, I’m moving on to the next team we’re going to take to the woodshed while you will be forgotten.”
