It’s Pablo & Jim on The Jump Around! Today after a quick takeaway from the Badgers 42-10 victory over Middle Tennessee, it's all about the Badgers looking to roll over the Tide. The guys give their takes on what needs to happen for Bucky to pull off the upset, and what they need to avoid if Wisconsin doesn't want to walk away whipped. They delve a little bit into a conversation on historical matchups and then turn their attention to a fun conversation from Unsportsmanlike about safety schools. Riley brings the fellas into the Twitter portal with a Luke Fickell quote, some AP Poll drama, and the Badgers national relevancy before former All-Big 10 Badgers CB Sojourn Shelton joins the show! He discusses what differences he sees between this year's team and the last couple of Fickell squads, his experience playing against Alabama, Wisconsin's keys to victory, and much more!
