This is kind of an interesting off season discussion.
When we were in the midst of our dark decade plus the Badger record would look pretty damn good. But now that we are BACK and all good and shit, I find their lack of championships disturbing
Lot of 3 and 4 loss seasons. Division champs in the shit division. They aren't and they won't be Ohio State

Agree wholeheartedly now that we're back. we want/should far exceed Wisco's level of success. That said, they have consistently been a Top 20 program the past 7 years or so, far outperforming their recruiting rankings. Reading this piece got me dooging pretty hard- i.e., if cornfed UW can get this kind of performance averaging 3 or 4 blue chips per class, imagine what our staff can do averaging 10- 12 blue chips per year.
Fag in sombrero craves anal, not really my thing, but one of you fags will step up
you're assuming Sombrero Boy isn't one of our posters
Pretty sure that's the women's swim team, so pic would have to be pre 2009. Sombrero Boy would therefore have to be one of our age 30 or so millennial posters.

11 years of performance ...
1st in division/conference: 5 2nd in division/conference: 3 4th in division/conference: 2 6th in division/conference: 1
I don't disagree that we should aspire to be better than the back end of the Top 10 ... but 5 division and/or conference championships in 11 years is pretty damn good.
Good program. But noone can lose a Rose Bowl quite like Wiscy. Hell I think #ourcuogs may have been able to eek one of those out if they were fortunate to draw Wiscy when they went.

Unless they are playing UCLA or Ty Trees. They were 3-0 in Rose Bowls in the 90's against those programs.
