    I’m not going to rip anyone for picking TCU because A. I want an unbiased opinion. B. I can’t figure out myself who I am predicting is going to win.

    The only thing I am predicting is that it is going to be a heck of a ball game and I will be there. :rock:



    I will not judge TCU’s team by the name on their helmet. They are a darn good football team.



    Because I have so much personal emotion involved I can’t give an unbiased opinion.

    Help me out. Thanks.

    Wisconsin by 10. I don't think TCU has seen any REAL competition this season, thus the undefeated record. There are at least 2 tiers of Div. I College Football, and they aren't in the TOP division, and certainly becoming a part of the Big East (which really makes absolutely NO SENSE since they are so far geographically away) isn't going to BOLSTER anyone's opinion of them until the Big East becomes worthy of being considered at the "Top Tier" in College Football.

    TCU faced a "real" Team in Utah and whipped them by 40 pts I believe. Wisconsin did not have the worlds toughest schedule either.

    Isn't Utah the same team that Notre Dame beat by 28 points???

    Yep, same team, so that means TCU is a LITTLE better than Notre Dame??? They'll get stomped by the Badgers!!! Wisconsin will RUN the ball down their throats, and out their arses!!!

    You think Wisconsin would have been ranked 4th at the end of the seaon if they had played a little harder schedule?


    UNLV(2-11), San Jose State (1-12), Arizone State(6-6), Austin Peay (2-9), Michigan State (11-1), Minnesota (3-9), Ohio State (11-1), Iowa (7-5), Purdue(4-8), Indiana (5-7), Michigan (7-5), Northwestern (7-5)

    This is the worst argument when talking about college football/sports in general...

    TCU by 7.

    31-17 Wisconsin.

    I do not think TCU has the size to stop Wis's power running game. After the running game is established Tolzein is an excellent play action passer.

    I just feel Wis is the better team.

    I'm not a fan of either school but I do not think Wisconsin is just going to destroy TCU despite their weak schedule TCU has a good defense you can't deny that I just don't see them running all over that defense. I think TCU is going to win a close game

    Wisconson was probably the hottest team in college football when the season ended...they rely on running the ball so the long break will not hurt them. I think they beat TCU by 17...or more.

    Wisonsins offensive Line
    LT - Gabe Carimi (6-7, 327, sr.)
    LG - John Moffitt (6-5, 323, sr.)
    C - Peter Konz (6-5, 313, so.)
    RG - Kevin Zeitler (6-4, 315, jr.)
    RT - Ricky Wagner (6-6, 322, so.)

    Any questions? LOL

    These guys are good:) Just ask MI and OSU:)

    That looks like the specs on a serious NFL line...they move the pile, and TCU relies on quick pass rushing ends, with some beef up front. I just do not think they are in the same class as Wisconson.

    Germ,

    Look up TCU's OL. They actually weigh more than Wisconsin's. Just throwing that little known point out there.

    The TCU DL is smaller however. I think they average in the 270 range.

    Badgers O-Line should wear TCU down. The Badgers have 3 RB's (J. Clay, M. Ball, J. White) that could all do the job. DT(JJ. Watt) will cause havoc and spend alot of time in TCU's backfield. The Badgers also have a QB (S. Tolzien) that is very careful with the ball and very accurate. That being said:

    WI-38
    TCU-20
