Show up at Camp Randall with the redshirt QB carrying the guys to victory with arm and legs and off-season momentum is favorable. Lose, project to end up in lower tier bowl, momentum is unfavorable. The stakes are always high but this game feels like a narrative-changer for the season, for Fleck and ultimately for the program- and could it possibly influence the hire/fire of the interim coach. I haven’t heard if he’s been named permanent yet which is interesting.
With the devastating loss last week have to believe the guys are looking for some redemption in the eyes of their fans, their fathers, and their coach.
