Wisconsin Badgers Fight The Flu and Pull Together To Find Their Team
2009-09-14 05:57:00 MADISON, Wis. -- Last week in Madison, the Wisconsin football team made the most of a sick situation. As many as 40 players were sick forcing coach Bret Bielema and his staff to make significant changes to their practice schedule. "You know we don't usually practice on Fridays and I told the guys Thursday night because of the work we didn't get Tuesday we need to go out and practice and they didn't bat an eye," Bielema said Saturday. The Badgers didn't complain, but instead went to work, the best they could, under less than ideal conditions. "There were a few times you'd walk into the locker room and you'd hear some guy chucking into one of the garbage cans,"...
Big Ten has ties to SI?s Fortunate 50
2008-06-04 04:39:00 Although it’s not as many as Big Ten fans would like to hear…. Sports Illustrated names a list of what they call the “Fortunate 50″, which is a spin of the business world’s “Fortune 500″, but this is just for athletes.

Big 10 Women?s Volleyball attendance best in NCAA
2008-05-08 05:25:00 Women’s volleyball has always had a strong following in the Big Ten, dating back to the early 80s when Illinois really broke onto the national scene normally dominated by California teams.

Eagles Select Jack Ikegwuonu With The 131st Pick
2008-04-28 13:19:00 Jack Ikegwuonu is a first round talent who unfortunately for him tore his ACL prior to the combine. After this devastating injury some felt that Ikegwuonu might go undrafted, but the Eagles saw enough talent in him to take a chance in the 4th. That was the Eagles first compensatory pick(unable to trade) and I think ...
2008 NCAA Tournament Outlook: Wisconsin Badgers
2008-03-19 21:11:00 It’s hip to be square. Right? In, Wisconsin’s case, it better be. They aren’t pretty on offense, they do not have a dominant scorer that can take over games, and they’ve gotten by on tenacious defense to earn them a number 3 seed. So….what can you do with that in the NCAAs? Well, more than ...

TSF College Football Power Poll
2007-10-02 01:49:00 Big changes in this weeks power poll with some major upsets this past weekend. 1. USC- PR- 1USC fell to 2nd in the A.P. Poll, but TSF still believes they are the number one team. Yes, they didn't look like their normal selves against Washington, but LSU struggled for much of the game against TULANE, they are no WASHINGTON.2. LSU- PR- 2LSU's Offense looked horrid at times vs. Tulane on Saturday, good thing they have a stellar defense. SEC game of the year coming up this weekend vs. Florida. Too bad the Gators lost, then we possibly could have had a 1-2 or 1-3 game. Florida needs to pick up where their defense left off vs. Tennessee if they want any piece of LSU.3. California- PR- 6 California beat a good Oregon team and luckily Oregon fumbled it at the 1 foot line to lose. Their offense has been super and De'Sean Jackson put himself back in the Heisman race with his big-time performance.4. Wisconsin- PR- 8I will give Wisconsin the benefit of the doubt even though they have struggl...

BCS Bowl Predictions
2007-08-25 09:03:00 TSF's comprehensive 2007 NCAA Football Preview concludes with the BCS Bowl Predictions.USC vs. West VirginiaUSC should run the table even with a semi-tough schedule. WVA has a very good chance to finish undefeated even with games at Rutgers and South Florida, their offense will be too explosive.Wisconsin vs. FloridaWisconsin will be one of the best teams in the country and will finish 11-1 and and win the Big Ten. I see Florida finishing 10-3, but still earning a BCS Bowl bid with some impressive wins. LSU vs. MichiganLSU has a very good chance at finishing undefeated but something tells me they will lose to either V-Tech or Alabama, which will keep them out of the title game. Michigan will finish 2nd in the Big Ten and winds up in the Sugar Bowl with no fit in any of the others. Virginia Tech vs. LouisvilleSomething tells me that V-Tech may just be playing in the BCS Title Game, but I can't make up my mind about their game at LSU. As of right now I see them finishing 12-1 with wi...

College Football 2007 Conference Preview: Big Ten
2007-08-14 00:18:00 The Big Ten has been very competitive in the BCS race and always produces some of the top tier teams in the country. Look for Wisconsin and Michigan to be the ones competing for a chance to play in the BCS National Championship game, with Ohio St., Penn St., Purdue, and Iowa not far behind.Predicted Order of Finish1. WisconsinThe offense should be solid even after losing QB John Stocco and T Joe Thomas. Tyler Donovan is battling with KSU transfer Allan Evridge for the starting QB job but Donovan looks to have the upper hand. Donovan has some experience replacing Stocco while he was injured last season. Heisman Candidate PJ Hill returns at RB, he rushed for 1,569 yards and 15 touchdowns while he led the Big Ten in all-purpose yards. They also return a solid WR corps and one of the best TEs in the land in Travis Beckum. The defense should be rocking with 8 starters back that includes DE Matt Shaughnessy, CB Jack Ikegwuounu, and LBs Jon Casillas and DeAndre Levy.2. MichiganThere is no ...

Both teams are heavy contenders to win their own conferences and are legitimate contenders for a BCS Bowl game as well. Early Prediction: CaliforniaSeptember 3Florida St. at ClemsonBowden Bowl V will take place on Labor Day Weekend. Tommy has handled his dad pretty well winning the last two and three of four overall. This is a huge early game to get a jump start in the ACC and FSU cannot afford a loss here with their tough schedule as it is.Early Prediction: ClemsonSeptember 8Virginia Tech at LSUTwo of the countries top defenses will meet at one of the most hostile environments on CBS. Both teams return a lot of talent; this should be a great game with players such as Matt Flynn, Jacob Hester, Early Doucet,...
