#5 Wisconsin VS. Illinois

[KLin]

The illini are looking pretty good against the Badgers. Illinois up 7-0.

 

[txrandom]

Go Illini.

They actually got a few votes for the top 25 this year. We'll see after the game I guess.

I personally think the Badgers are a bit overrated. They have yet to actually look good in a game, though they do always seem to still win and i suppose thats all that matters.

Espn says odds have Illinois a 2½ point favorite to win this game. So I'd have to say no, Illinois is not underrated.

Underranked? Perhaps.

 

[bunnyfubbles]

Illinois underrated? Maybe a little. Wisconsin overrated? Yes, especially judging by their many close calls. Of course as long Wisconsin keeps winning I guess they deserve it. Ohio State had a similar year when they last won the national championship - of course no body would have been surprised if they had lost a game that season, just as it wouldn't be too big of a surprise should Wisconsin lose this game or any future games for that matter.

The Badgers were more than a bit overrated (think Michigan before the season). Hate to see my Badgers get blanked, but it's nice to see that Illinois isn't going to be the doormat of the B10 anymore.

Go Illini!

Yeah we're underrated, we just took down Penn State(And we didnt even make the upset thread earlier this week?) and completely embarassed(admittedly bottom-feeder) Syracuse.

Mendenhall for Heisman!

Wisconsin is BADLY overrated. They've played 5 bad teams and failed to dominate any of them. They barely got by UNLV and The Citadel. They're going to lose today and then get crushed by Ohio State and Michigan later on. They will fall to a 2nd tier bowl game and probably lose that too.

 

[Kelemvor]

I think WI forgot they had a game today the way they are playing. Must have been up all night drinking or something.

[Sukhoi]

Woooooooooooooooohoooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!

I really wish I had managed to get tickets to the Michigan game now!

 

[slpaulson]

Bah.

Illinois is looking good, and Wisconsin needs to find a defense or they're going to lose several games.
