Madison, Wisconsin is a great city, the campus is on a lake, countryside is nice, and he is from southern Wisconsin, and won 6 Div. 3 national championships while coaching Wisconsin-Whitewater. The Badgers also enjoy athletic success and a strong academic ranking, have spirited alums, and draw from Chicago and the Twin Cities for recruiting. Seems to me an easy choice over Nebraska, if Leipold gets his pick. College kids love Madison.
There was also a bad experience for her at an OU game in Norman (not Jerry World). But the Boulder-experience was the kill shot. She also doesn’t like that I will not just move away meekly when a-holes start trying to mess with me. I recall when there could be good-natured banter going on even in closely contested games (eg: OU v Frogs in Norman in 05) but that was just my son and me. Now it’s vulgar and threatening. Didn’t help that I told her Boulder would be among the most benign venues since that team had zero expectations of being even decent and figured their fans were virtual eunuchs by now given how many emasculations that team has suffered over recent years.
I was around for the 70's so I have seen very bad TCU football prior to the past 4-5 seasons.
No doubt KU's football stadium is the worst in Big 12. Hope to check it out again when they're done with all the just announced upgrades are finished.
Man those hillbillies are mean as hell. In 2019, I legit thought I was going to get my ass kicked when Vernon Scott had the pick 6. All I did was cheer like a normal fan and all I heard after that was "sit down and shut the scheiss up".
Admittedly it's been a while since the Rose Bowl, but the Wisconsin fans at that game were mostly a bunch of grossly overweight, foul-mouthed drunks. And that was just the women.
That kind of describes the whole state...
My experience in 2016 differed greatly. Google photos reminded me that I was there 6 years ago yesterday. My daughter and I tailgated (if you can call it that) by my car, then wandered around and found an alumni tailgate. On the way in to the stadium, a guy said he had won a seat upgrade and offered me his seats on the 50 for dirt cheap. I have no idea why he picked TCU fans...
Man, calling Lawrence “the middle of nowhere” is going to bring all the “Lawrence is a KC suburb” mafia down on you.
Actually on two lakes, sits on an isthmus and had some really good lake trout while on a business trip there before retirement. Unfortunately, it was -5 and all I had was a lined raincoat since I lived in Houston.
I might be interested in seeing what the Savannah Bananas could come up with for a halftime show using track and field.Here's what KU's stadium looked like when I attended a KU-Texas A&M game there in 1974. KU won 28-10.

Kept wondering if there was going to be a track meet for halftime entertainment...
No more "moonshine" in Morgantown?
Davis and Banks split deep. Both standing in the end zone.
