Duck Droppings
Stupid comments from stupid people!
How tired is this?
September 1, 2000 "A
look into the crystal ball" by Andy Bitter Sports Editor/Badger Herald
I just got back from a meeting with this prestigious group of
soothsayers. Here’s what they had to say (I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised):
Sept. 9 vs. Oregon: Petrified by the sight of Oregon’s
hideous road uniforms, which look like they were recycled out of mesh baseball
hats from the mid-’80s, quarterback Brooks Bollinger refuses to enter
the game.
Weak in schedule? What has he been drinking lately?
NDG-approved malted beverages? We'll make him regret his words on September
9th
Situation: Chris Chambers, Wisconsin's leading returning receiver,
is out with a stress fracture in his right foot.
Implication: Not as bad as you would think. Wisconsin is deep
in receivers and weak in schedule (Western Michigan,
Oregon, Cincinnati) before Chambers' expected return
on Sept. 23 against Northwestern. Coach Barry Alvarez has toyed with the idea
of switching All-American corner Jamar Fletcher to offense ala Charles Woodson.
If you count his seven interceptions last season, Fletcher is the Badgers' fifth-leading
returning receiver.
TommyBoy needs to rewind the Sun Bowl
tape and put on his glasses!

Possible
pitfallsalong the way for Badgers
Oregon: The Ducks are UW's first early season opponent from a major conference
since Syracuse in 1997, and we all know what happened then -- a 34-0 loss. The
good news is Oregon looks like a typical Pacific
10 Conference team, all offense and no defense.
Pac 10 - Sept. 2
By: Collegefootballnews.com
Date: 8/4/2000
Here's our analysis of every PAC 10 game each week during the season including
our predictions and ranking on the Must-See level. 10 means sell the house,
sell the kids, do what you must to see this game. 1 means feel free to appease
the spouse and watch the Home & Garden channel.
#7 Nevada at Oregon
The Ducks should be able to score at will against the Wolfpack but
Nevada QB David Neill should be able to throw against the UO secondary.
Must See Rating: 4
I'd like to introduce them to Rashad
