Ep. 54 - Is Maryland a Must-Win for Luke Fickell? + Wisconsin Player Interviews!
It’s Pablo & Jim on The Jump Around! They recap the brutal showing for the Badgers against Alabama, preview Maryland this weekend, and start to ponder the question: Is Luke Fickell's time at Wisconsin in jeopardy with a loss or unconvincing win against Maryland? When will we start to see improvements? They react to a disheartening discussion from Jen, Gabe, & Chewy, Barry Alvarez, and the head coach himself! Riley lightens the mood with some Badgers Twitter Portal shenanigans before they play interviews with Wisconsin LB Mason Reiger and WR Jayden Ballard!
