Michigan Meltdown

Victory in sight
Badger collapse begins
History repeats

(A Haggy Haiku)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ann Arbor rejected Wisconsin once again. She stood proud, coming away with a 27-25 gift after the Badgers blew a 19-point lead and botched a last-second two-point conversion. Ms. Arbor has had her way with the Badgers and the Big Ten in conference openers, winning the last four and 23 respectively.
Leave it to UW to have meltdowns such as these. Once unappreciated, the football world fawned Wisconsin with Top 10 rankings in each of the past two seasons.
Enough already. The Badgers aren't the Postal Service, they don't deliver.
Lack of discipline, particularly in the basic fundamentals like pursuit, tackling and coverage, are severely lacking. Tyler Donovan was no John Stocco. Badger fans are quickly finding out Allan Evridge isn't either.
