Wisconsin names Joel Stave the starting QB.

The back up, some dude named Tanner McEvoy was moved to the safety position for his senior season.

Stave is barely adequate. QB play has been very weak for the Badgers for several seasons.

Stave? You mean the guy who won the starting job, and then lost it, and then won it back, and then lost it again and then won it back again?

With their O line and Runninbacks all you need is a semi good QB to hand off and your good.

That guy still has eligibility? Side note, RU got the right NJ QB by grabbing Nova over McEvoy

Exactly. Stave's roll is to manage the offense and avoid making turnovers. Wisconsin will still have an awesome running game with Clement next season.

BTW - we play at Wisconsin on Halloween. The City of Madison hosts their annual Freakfest that evening. State Street will be packed. Lots of bands and revelry.

yeah, the QB situation at UW was strangely unsettled last year --- perhaps a bit more settled (but not improved) this year.......

 

[ruthetiger]

I wonder what made McAvoy think he would do any different?

Stave seems to be learning from the Tony Pike school of eligibility. These guys seem to stick around for am entire decade

the last fine qb Wisconsin had was Russell Wilson who finished his 5th year at Wisconsin after graduating from NC State.

I'll puke if we play with 2 deep safeties against them. We must do what they did to us, which was play what seemed like 14 players in the box.
I expect us to be able to give them a game this year. I'd love a win, but will be content to see a tight game.

Sounded like he wanted to play QB.

McEvoy was an excellent WR his Jr year, made some all state teams. He might have had, maybe still can, a Pro career if he stuck with WR. Might be JG's best position as well.

He needs to work on his accuracy. He couldn't hit water if he fell out of a boat.

Don't worry about the quarterback situation. Just be prepared to have the Badgers run it down your throat.
