While Illinois was coming off an exciting victory over Michigan State, it was all Wisconsin in this one, as the Badgers demolished the Fighting Illini, 48-3. From offense to defense, Wisconsin was operating on all cylinders for their Homecoming crowd.
Matching a career high with three touchdowns, Corey Clement again ran for over 100 yards (123), and was just one of many Wisconsin rushers who contributed to the teams combined 363 yards rushing. Although the receivers played a secondary role in the offense today, Jazz Peavy scored on a first quarter touchdown and continued to show why he is one of the better receivers in the conference.
And despite putting up 31 points in the first half, with three touchdowns coming in the first quarter alone, it was the defense that truly set the tempo early on. Four interceptions from three different players, Wisconsin’s defense consistently gave the offense exceptional field position.
It was truly a team victory, and while the Badgers absolutely dominated and did everything right, their weaknesses were still under watch as both quarterbacks, Alex Hornibrook and Bart Houston, took snaps today.
While Hornibrook and Houston each threw for one touchdown, and doing what was asked of them, the inconsistency at the quarterback position, that maintain this far into the season, may be what costs Wisconsin during a potential conference championship, bowl game, or even a shot a the national title.
And don’t rule Wisconsin out of a playoff appearance just yet. While many fans lost hope that a two loss team could even make the playoffs, with Wisconsin’s resume and if they continue to dominate like they did against Illinois, they could certainly have a chance if they win out.
Wisconsin has the best chance of any Big 10 team to make it to the conference championship next month, and although Michigan and Ohio State both beat the Badgers and are currently ranked higher, a Big 10 Championship may lead to a playoff birth, even with two losses.
And when Wisconsin very likely may face Penn State in the conference championship (which may help or hurt them), don’t underestimate Wisconsin’s chances of winning their next three.
If, which is still a big “if”, Wisconsin does make it to the playoffs, they will have to figure out this quarterback situation. Neither Hornibrook or Houston will turn into an elite quarterback by the end of the season, but one of them will need to step up, even with Wisconsin’s elite defense. To what extent and who will be the one to do it? Only time will tell.
The Badgers will look to keep their playoff hopes and chances at winning the Big 10 alive, next week at Purdue, for a 11:00 AM Saturday game in West Lafayette.
Moments ago, the seventh ranked Wisconsin Badgers gave their homecoming crowd in Madison, WI a big “W”, as Wisconsin defeated the Illinois Fighting Illini. Although Illinois was coming of an excellent win against the talented Michigan State, the energy flowing through Camp Randall this afternoon was just too much for the Illini to handle, and RB Kendrick Foster just wasn’t able to find the same success against against Wisconsin elite defense.
The most exciting duo in R&B today, THEY. have shared their brand new track, ‘What You Want’. And whether they first caught your attention before their big supporting tour with Bryson Tiller, or you have yet to give their music a chance, their new self-produced record is certainly one that you won’t want to sleep on.
They have been an overnight success ever since their debut EP Nu Religion, and things recently got even more exciting for the two, as they were recently added to Jeremih and PARTYNEXTDOOR’s Summer’s Over Tour (dates below).
Childish Gambino’s third studio album, …Awaken, My Love!, is just around the corner, currently scheduled for a December 2nd release. And while fans have been patiently waiting, wondering what Donald Glover’s next LP would sound like, fans now have a first taste as Gambino debuted the album’s lead single ‘Me And Your Momma’ moments ago on Beats 1 Radio with Zane Lowe.
And if the awesome new track sounds familiar, you may have heard it before. Not only did Glover perform the record for thousands of fans at his PHAROS concerts in Joshua Tree, CA, but he also previewed the track for fans during his Bonnaroo performance in 2015. If this track is any indication of what the rest of the album will sound like, don’t be surprised if …Awaken, My Love! ends up being Gambino’s best and most critically acclaimed album to date.
It’s amazing how fast the internet can catch on to things. Just minutes after Donald Glover (Childish Gambino) broke his blackout on social media to share the announcement and album artwork for his forthcoming LP, “…Awaken, My Love!”, Twitter quickly noticed that the cover was in front of us all along.
In a recent episode from Glover critically acclaimed FX series “Atlanta”, the artwork for Childish Gambino’s upcoming album is displayed in the background, propped up in a bookshelf. While only time will tell, it will be interesting to find out if there are any more Childish Gambino easter eggs hidden in Glover’s hit show, which was already renewed for a second season.
Earlier this week reliable rumors began to circulate, as to the release of Childish Gambino’s third studio album. With since deleted listings for the LP appearing on various Amazon sites, and an advertisement for the album appearing at various FYE stores throughout the country, it looked like Donald Glover was nearing the release of his first new project since STN MTN / Kauai.
Those rumors have now been confirmed, as the Atlanta creator has shared the album artwork for his previously rumored LP, titled …Awaken, My Love! While it is still yet to be confirmed whether or not the album is releasing on December 2nd, we couldn’t be any more excited. Fans have been patiently awaiting an official release, ever since Gambino previewed new music at his PHAROS concerts in Joshua Tree, CA earlier this year.
In the wake of Donald Trump’s upset victory over Hillary Clinton, which has left many distraught, Killer Mike and El-P’s rap group, Run The Jewels, have shared their previously unreleased track ‘2100’ with fans moments ago. In a message to fans, Run The Jewels wrote:

From his EP, There’s Alot Going On, Vic Mensa brought his chilling performance of ’16 Shots’ to a national audience on Jimmy Kimmel Live. One of our favorite performances from Lollapalooza’s 25th Anniversary this past summer, Mensa was joined on stage by actors dressed in police riot gear, while rapping about policy brutality and the fatal police shooting of Chicago’s Laquan McDonald.
Making the memorable performance even bigger, Mensa was also joined by Blink 182’s legendary drummer, Travis Barker, to back up the performance. Then, a couple minutes into the record, Mensa abruptly stopped the music to talk to the people and call out the police in Chicago while also calling out Donald Trump, saying that if Trump wins the election, “racism wins”.
