One of the Keys...
We were praying for Wisconsin to survive the first quarter and not be intimidated by the FSU crowd and the Southern Speed factor…That did happen…
Also, Graham Gano of Florida State is punting the ball unbelievably. He nailed three punts on the 1, 3, and 1 yard line of the Badgers

7-0, Florida State
Sherer attempted to quick pass to a wide receiver, but the ball got knocked down and ran back 80 yards for a Seminole TD.

Wisconsin needed to challenge that call, but Bielema didn’t feel that a game altering 80 yard touchdown was important enough

First Half Observations
Score: 14-3, FSU
The big WR’s of FSU make a big difference in this game.
Highlight of the Half: Carr’s TD catch, one handed beauty.
Wisconsin can effectively run the ball against the ultra fast Seminoles.
Wisconsin’s DL is smashing the young FSU O line. Ponder has taken some big shots.
Player of the Game so far: Graham Gano, Punter.

TD Carr. Wisky tries to Jam carr.
FSU’s OLine is getting dominated by a pretty garbage Wisconsin front. Hopefully they WTFU in the second half.

Bill Stewart of WVU
His post game euphoric celebrations are some of the best, ever. He will just say anything that is on his mind. His latest celebratory remarks, paraphrased:
I may not have the best players, but they are going to be great men, great daddies, great men of faith.
Bill is like the Bizarro Bobby Knight

Timeout
12:48 left, 3rd and 2. PJ Hill has 140 on the ground today, FSU’s line is allowing Hill to get into 1 on 1 situations with linebackers.

Reversed
Not a good call, looks like Valai stripped it before the Receiver was down.

The Seminoles are starting to run effectively…in a game like this, that equals ball control and “game over”

Oh Fumble.
Hill makes a nice run, gets hammered and loses ball.
Not exactly how Bielema saw this game shaping up.

It's a safety penalty. You can't rush at the kicker like that because the vulnerability of all his weight being on one leg.
He actually did land on the rusher.

Update
FSU 28, WI 6 (End of 3rd Q)
Wisconsin is slower and has been able to run up the gut, but unable to finish drives. Even when Wisconsin has put in the effort/creativity to stop FSU, something positive has happened for the Seminoles (imaginary penalty, long pass)…
The story of the 2nd half is the FSU run game that came alive.

I wish we had Everette for his senior year.
Did you know he didn’t start as a soph? He did beat AA OT from ‘Bama Andre Smith for a strip and score in last year’s Bama game.

I will post an update tonight
To all Wisky fans, tough game. The game planning didn’t suck, the coaching didn’t suck – those are positives.
