Weird, even though the season is starting over a month later

than it normally does, it still feels like it is sneaking up on us.

Wisconsin was not a good team last year. We were 2-2 against them and they had a losing record against 4 of the other 5 teams in the league.

We started out great last season. Then we played some good teams and had the only 6 game losing streak in Jeff Jackson's entire coaching history. Then finished the year off in completely forgettable mediocrity.

Hopefully this year's low expectations -- we're figured to be a mid-pack Big Ten team -- lead to a surprising finish.

Last year was fitting for 2020. I want to forget all about it.
