No Weston option?

 

[GringaGopher]

Beast mode Nestor ! He literally was everywhere today !!

 

[MNVCGUY]

Nestor.....there were other good performances but this one is easy....Nestor was unreal all game. He was everywhere.

We missed you last week but glad you were back for The Axe!

Big oversight there.....Weston absolutely deserves a spot on the list. He would be second for me after Nestor.

 

[DelawareGopher]

Good team win but… Nestor.

 

[NextYear_76]

Simmons Wisc. QB

 

[FanSinceTheFifties]

Not a bad performance by Nester today. Pretty good for the guy mercilessly berated by GHers this season.

 

[Some Day...Maybe]

The options for this poll should be John Nestor for every answer.

Nestor! If he plays last week we beat Northwestern. Backups suck

Just needed some more grooming. They didn't suck. Agree though, wonder if Nestor could have made a difference last week.

Nestor reminds me Terrell Buckley. Remember the Crouton? A good player who made some big plays, but got burned more often than you'd expect. And in the end, a lot of people remember the burns instead of the big plays.

Corners were brutal against NW

Voted Nestor, but I think Taylor is the most important player on the team.

 

[50PoundHead]

Not Denaburg.

He clearly contributed as well. Takes a team to win.

 

[Gilthorp57]

Nestor by far, I, for one was not high on him, but he has played his way out of the burn unit.

Not by me

Honorable mention definitely goes to Tom Weston. He had a great day punting the ball in bad conditions and put the Badgers in some tough spots with some great punts.

 

[bleedsmaroonandgold]

Nestor easily

 

[GopherVotary]

Nestor had a game that will be talked about for decades. But Weston was almost as important, especially considering the conditions. He helped create a big advantage in field position.

 

[TwistingMyMelon]

Good team win but… Nestor.

Yeah, it's rare to have a single defensive player who is an obvious MVP but this is one of those rare occasions.

 

[gopherdudepart2]

I gave it to John Nestor, but honorable mention game balls deserved to Darius Taylor, Drake Lindsey and Jameson Geers and Lemeke Brockington for the scores and first downs.

 

[stocker08]

Anyone who doesn't pick Nestor is trolling or lying to themselves.

Just watched some of the highlights on YouTube. Nestor was everywhere. That might be one of the greatest defensive games I ever seen. One player have. Huge stops on huge Downs. Three takeaways. All at key points and with great fuel position because of it. He played the game of his life. This will go down for me as the "Nestor Snowbowl"

Right before his second interception of the day and massive return that set us up for the victory, he stopped that end around play for a 4 or 5-yard loss as well.

Blurb in today's St. Paul Pioneer Press. I like this guy!

Nestor credited God first, then teammates. “I don’t think it’s a product of me at all, to be honest with you,” he said. “It was the whole defense as a collective. If you watch that play, Mav tipped that ball. If Mav doesn’t tip that ball, the (Wisconsin) guy catches it. That’s Mav’s pick. I owe him a steak dinner this week.”
