  • Summary

  • Jim Rutledge and Alex Gravatt roll on after Matt Hamilton has to say goodbye to go throw some stones up in Canada, eh... Jim and Alex pivot from the Packers' "impressive-ish" win against the 49ers into the Badgers dreadful 38-10 loss to Nebraska on Saturday. After dropping to 5-6 and at risk of not making a bowl game for the first time in 23 years, Jim and Alex ask fans to play the blame game with who they think is "most responsible" for the current state of the Badgers' football program. Thy consult the fans on the phone line to discuss if the fault lies at the feet of Luke Fickell, AD Chris McIntosh or the recently-fired Phil Longo, or does the problem stem further back to Paul Chryst's regime? Plus, how do we now evaluate the decision to hire Luke Fickell nearly two years later? Mark Tauscher joins Jim Rutledge and Alex Gravatt to discuss the Packers' dominant 38-10 win versus the 49ers at Lambeau Field. First, they delve into the down-bad Badgers after the team's 44-25 loss to Nebraska on Saturday. Jim asks if this team is closer to the one we saw in a tight loss to No. 1 Oregon at Camp Randall or the one that was blown out twice by Iowa and now Nebraska? They also discuss the importance of keeping the program's 22-year bowl streak alive, and how the food in the press box in Lincoln compares to the cookies in Kinnick Stadium. They get back to the Packers, asking Tausch just how good he felt after Green Bay's dominant win against San Fran and how confident is he going into the Dolphins game on Thanksgiving night? Jim and G wrap up with Throwing Stones, discussing if it's worse to keep breaking movies up into two parts or "spoiling" that a movie is a two-parter!
