Remaining calm while focused on the big picture
Photo by Rich Schultz/Getty Images I was strangely calm after the game. Maybe because I wasn’t all that surprised. I saw this game as the perfect storm for a Wisconsin drubbing. I predicted Wisconsin to win 38-13 and got some flack for this prediction.
But watching Wisconsin play the past few weeks, it was pretty clear that their lines on both sides of the ball were in a league that the Scarlet Knights have yet to remotely approach. Football is a game of match-ups which is why Rutgers can beat Illinois last Saturday after Illinois beat Penn State the previous Saturday and dismantled a good Minnesota team this past weekend.
