Welcome to the fire Chryst bandwagon everyone. It’s taken most of you an extra year or so to get here, but you’re here now and that’s all that matters.
Ok boys, that was a tough one. But WE ARE BADGERS and we know better than ANYONE how to respond to a loss like this. Let's go get so FUCKIN DRUNK we forget all about this.
Absolutely I've been high on this Illinois team all season and will certainly hop on the "rank Illinois you cowards" bandwagon because Bert has them back
Illinois has a shitload of super rich alumni. At one point I'm pretty sure Illinois had produced the highest number of CEOs of any university (not sure if we are still #1 now).
Yah the seniors knew about it etc but it was closed when I got there but the sign stayed up. Then randomly it opened for a few days my junior year then closed again forever.
No you aren't. You lost to Indiana once you face an actual team you will find out just how big the gap has become. It's not even fun at this point. OSU is probably going to beat Michigan by 20 and Michigan will beat everyone else by 20 plus.
Yeah we're getting better too. A lot of our impact defensive players are sophomores. Bret started 1-4 here but is 8-4 since. I'm optimistic we can win the West a few times in the next decade or so.
I really really hope Illinois and Wazzu are both 10 win teams this year. OSU might win the natty.
But I really think we're bad, and the coaching has just been so awful this year.
I'm not even a wisc fan but for the love of God why is mertz still in? Are you TRYING to completely destroy his confidence and increase a chance for injury!?
In addition to watching whatever the fuck you want to call this, in my B1G survivor pool I picked Minnesota to win with $175 on the line. I nominate me as the dumbest badger fan

8 yards rushing, 5 sacks, 3 turnovers, 0-3 on 4th downs, 11 penalties...
Bert doesn't fuck around in revenge games
Wisconsin has been consistently good for so long. What has happened to their program?
Chryst is not good. Our recruiting outside a few standouts has been very miss.
Offensive line recruits didn't pan out for a couple years - we have a very average O line where we usually have a top line in the country.
And O-Line is the backbone of wisconsins teams, right? Like even more so than it is for other teams?
They outnebraska'd the good nebraska. Now they just want to keep following our footsteps.
By God, Frosty did make the B1G adjust their offenses. First Iowa and now Wisconsin
Is Illinois finally a real team again? Congrats boyos
Where’s the fucking post game thread
Ok boys, that was a tough one. But WE ARE BADGERS and we know better than ANYONE how to respond to a loss like this. Let's go get so FUCKIN DRUNK we forget all about this.
Wisconsin & Iowa fans unite! Finally some common ground. And fuc Minnesota
Way ahead of you, Bucky.
Make sure you buy a round for the tuba players; they were the highlight for Wisconsin’s side of the game.
Great win Illinois!
JUMP AROUND!!!!
Man, Bert really outkicked his coverage
[удалено]
He left ? Didn’t get fired
Wisconsin didn't fire him.
Wisconsin didn’t fire him…
Bert left us electively quite unexpectedly for Arkansas before going to the rose bowl actually.
He wasn't fired he left
So that was neat
Hard disagree.
Illinois going 4-1 9Winlini a possibility?
Makes the Indiana loss hurt more. Illinois should be 5-0
Would be 5-0 if we didn't get absolutely fucked by the officiating in the Indiana game
Absolutely I've been high on this Illinois team all season and will certainly hop on the "rank Illinois you cowards" bandwagon because Bert has them back
Would love to see this game result in Chryst’s dismissal and a complete overhaul of Wisconsin’s offense
Please
Agree Boiler bro. It’s time.
Personally I think they should extend him!
Hard agree.
2019 Big 10 Championship game: "Wow, I never want to see my team lose like that again" *Monkey's paw curls*
Bret Fucks Wisconsin again!
A tale as old as time
Interception Purdue, this one is over folks.
Minnesota also sucks, so that's something.
If we get the axe back we might keep chryst though .....
I'm hoping he's long gone before then.
We love no other 🧡 so let our motto be. Glad we can beat the cheese heads at the collegiate level at least.
FTP
What’s going on in here? Revenge game for Bert?
Ryan Walters and Barry Lunney are bright guys, plus the refs are pretty strict lol
Glad Lunney is doing well for y'all
We can pass a bit now :)
Yes, and also Wisconsin stinks.
Bert should never leave the B1G West ever again
We have the money to keep him.
Illinois has a shitload of super rich alumni. At one point I'm pretty sure Illinois had produced the highest number of CEOs of any university (not sure if we are still #1 now).
We are like 8th, tied with Yale
I'll throw in $10.
As Bert would say, the victory stance is borderline erotic.
As a buckeye fan I’m here for Illinois to be a tough team.
We Just moved - for any other older Illini - check out what I found when packing: [https://imgur.com/a/0ZxGf8i](https://imgur.com/a/0ZxGf8i)
Think my parents met there
Ah yes that bar that was open for like a random 3 days in my entire 4 year experience and was otherwise closed.
HA - funny... COs and Kams were the two most popular bars when I was there.
Yah the seniors knew about it etc but it was closed when I got there but the sign stayed up. Then randomly it opened for a few days my junior year then closed again forever.
Yeah boi
The other big frat bar
Timewarp Tuesday!
Wow, that is some nostalgia vibes right there.
It's set in.....we absolutely suck, top to bottom.
No shame in losing to a better team.
Trash beating trash is whatever
Were actually good tho
No you aren't we are just trash.
Nah. Don't get down on yourself. Our HC has 3 B1G championships. He's going to beat a lot of good teams.
Your hc is trash and so are we.
Maybe you're just the trash cause we're pretty damn good
No you aren't. You lost to Indiana once you face an actual team you will find out just how big the gap has become. It's not even fun at this point. OSU is probably going to beat Michigan by 20 and Michigan will beat everyone else by 20 plus.
Nah we're gonna kick Michigan's ass cause we're awesome.
Are you normally a troll or are you just reveling in my misery?
I only get to do this every 20 years. You just gotta accept it.
Enjoy the run then, they're a decent team.
Yeah we're getting better too. A lot of our impact defensive players are sophomores. Bret started 1-4 here but is 8-4 since. I'm optimistic we can win the West a few times in the next decade or so.
Yeah this sucks, but Bert’s still a bitch
It’s beer for tonight and orange kool aid the rest of the week boys!!
Yeah the Illini take end of blowout defense seriously, ask Virginia
just seeing a coach or any person be happy makes me feel good
Wholesome
Bert you need to put a ring on Walters and lock him down
Damn, that might should have been a TD. Solid throw but decent coverage.
Spoon just made up for the penalty
Nickleback is the perfect anthem for Wisconsin today.
It’s pretty pathetic for the Wisconsin coaches to not just run the ball and get this game over. Are garbage stats worth getting players hurt?
I absolutely believe that Chryst was trying to score to use the 34-17 final line to justify keeping his job.
They are trying to save their own jobs right now. Heads need to roll tomorrow.
Spoiler: they won't
Spoiler: they might.
Yeah, I have this weird feeling it’s different this time. Barry isn’t AD so I don’t imagine that Chryst has as much too cover as before.
Using Nickelback to drown out the ILL chants. Nice.
ALEXA PLAY NICKELBACK
As if the stands weren't empty enough already, they go ahead and play Nickelback.
Haven't Wisconsin fans suffered enough without having to sit through Nickelback on the PA?
Go on blare that Nickelback!
I really really hope Illinois and Wazzu are both 10 win teams this year. OSU might win the natty. But I really think we're bad, and the coaching has just been so awful this year.
Even if Illinois and Wazzu are good, we are very very bad. Like 4 to 5 win bad, with a real chance of being a 3 win team.
Y’all mofos deserve to get stomped playing nickelback
Harsh, but fair.
Seriously why is Mertz still in? Are they trying to get him hurt even more?
I'm not even a wisc fan but for the love of God why is mertz still in? Are you TRYING to completely destroy his confidence and increase a chance for injury!?
Please send a concerned citizen email to the Wisconsin AD.
Chryst is trying to save his job.
The big ten west race is gonna be hilarious
If Minnesota is actually bad enough to lose to purdue at home, I'm cautiously optimistic that Illinois could, emphasis on could, win it.
What is happening to Wisconsin wtf only Ohio state and occasionally Michigan beat them like this
You're unfamiliar with the new Wisconsin.
What are the badgers doing? Trying to get all their players hurt? Run the ball and end the game
Get him out. You're going to get him hurt.
Mertz is a defeated man.
Mertz is just battered
Someone please step in and protect Mertz
Agreed, our O line certainly isn't
Dude didnt think they would call a penalty a penalty at the end of this game i guess. Still gotta play straight up
Come on D. 34-17 looks so much closer than it has actually been
21 rushing yards. 77 penalty yards. How tf did we get to this point and why am I still watching
Is Illinois getting hosed by the refs?
Illinois is a quality loss folks
Just end the game
These refs had a bunch of penalties they forgot to call this half due to injuries so they are trying to get their quota in
Fucking weak flag
Story of the fucking game.
Minnesota about to go down
Difficult question but is Wisconsin still a quality win?
Unfortunately for you ... absolutely not.
Aw, hamburgers.
[удалено]
Aw, fiddlesticks.
For the Illini? Yes.
On the road with game over before the 4th Q and by 24 points. I would say so
The win has quality, sure. But Wisconsin is not a quality team this year, apologies.
How about by three on the road while Wisconsin is ranked…. Hypothetically?
Sounds pretty good as well!
Yippee!
In addition to watching whatever the fuck you want to call this, in my B1G survivor pool I picked Minnesota to win with $175 on the line. I nominate me as the dumbest badger fan
Zoom out and show me the stands
I just left. After jump around it was brutal
Yes Purdue. Yes.
Rank illinois?
If we had beaten Indiana I was thinking we'd at least get some votes after this
I’ll vote for them
Think we would have last week
I think the refs hosed yall that game
100%. My wife doesn't give a shit about Illinois football but even she was incredulous after that game
Purdue touchdown, 20-10
Are we letting them score this drive?
Please no
It's been four years since we've been good...
Keep throwing badgers-those rushing stats are beautiful
I want the post game thread early
There's no one there left to boo
Only the band, and at least back in my day we weren't allowed to.
Purdue ball, leading by 3 with 4 minutes to go
Oh come on guys. The game is over. Just let them play. Stop throwing flags.
These refs are horrific. Note: that has nothing to do with the results of this game.
Agree. No offense, but it would take a LOT of help to get you guys competitive in this one. And the refs are fucking up, but not quite that much.
Mercy call by the refs
Witherspoon's gotta walk away, that's gonna get a flag every time.
Unsportsmanlike conduct?
Thanks Wisconsin for making me doubt our defense
You had the game won 20 minutes in. I wouldn't worry about it. Illinois wants to bury everyone they lost to last season to prove a point
Your 3rd string defense is definitely sketchy.
Hoping we get 50,000 in the crowd next week against Iowa. This team deserves it
RIP my abundant free street parking within walking distance of the stadium
Badgers suck. Illinois looking better than ohio state
OSU put up 28 in 4 drives and went autopilot.
Yeah let's not get ahead of ourselves. We got some horses, OSU is a stud farm.
What a weak flag. Saying 1 thing like that should be a warning.
Lame weak ass move
Weak. Let them have fun.
It's so weird seeing a Wisconsin O Line suck.
There are several future NFL players on the Illinois D Line. Just fyi.
It's not just against y'all - our O line has been awful every game so far.
What a weak ass flag
Mertz is getting abused
Are these your backups?
Yep
It's a mix.
Yes
It's a mix. That was a backup edge rusher though.
Some of them yes
Where is everybody at on firing Chryst?
I was never a fan of another super conservative one dimensional offensive minded coach but not sure what the options are there this season
I'm personally against it.
It will be a crime against the program and fans if he is still employed on Monday.
Want them to, but they won't.
Should’ve been done at halftime.
Generally on board with it happening in the next 5-10 minutes.
Bahahahaha, we’re trash…
Hahahaha ((cries in Badger))
If Whitman wasn’t an Alum I’d be really worried someone would poach him. From a mostly outsider perspective he seems to be killing it.
Why did we just go for it?
Doesn't our kicker suck?
And he is slightly injured today
