Badgers Again Ranked Highly Pre-Preseason


The Badgers are again picked to finish highly in both the Big-10 and overall in the way before the season starts polls on ESPN.com. To be specific, the Badgers are ranked second in the Big-10 behind those perennial assholes at Ohio State and 13th in the country. I take this to mean that ESPN.com is predicting that OSU is going to get to the National Championship game only to lose for the third consecutive season, leaving the Badgers to get rolled by USC in the Rose Bowl like Illinois did after entering the Rose Bowl ranked 13th in both polls last season. Hopefully the Badgers are moving in the direction Zach Brown in pointing in the above picture.

Going to the Rose Bowl would be pretty much the most awesome thing ever setting aside L.A. being a soulless jungle of freeways. I suppose that's why they play the game in Pasadena. I'm tired of the Second Rate Bowl Presented by Capital One which we didn't even bother to get to this past season. A trip to the Rose Bowl would be a fine way to round off my final year at UW-Madison, since football is inevitably more important than academics.

Bonus: Michigan is slated to finish fifth in the Big-10. Whats good now, you fancy coach having bitches?
