   Number 1: Matt Lepay on the Badgers’ Second-Half Collapse & What Needs to Change

   Matt Lepay joins Kyle & Brust to break down Wisconsin’s loss to Notre Dame and why the frustrating second-half collapse needs some perspective. Lepay points out that the Badgers have now lost 12 straight against top-five opponents and explains why the next step for Luke Fickell’s program is proving it can consistently finish games against teams closer to its own level before expecting victories over college football’s elite. Lepay also highlights reasons for optimism from the first half, including Wisconsin’s defense shutting down Notre Dame’s run game, the Irish going 0-for-6 on third down, Colton Joseph showing promise and Malachi Coleman making an impact. But the challenge remains turning 30 good minutes into 60 and overcoming the mental hurdle that has caused mistakes to snowball when games begin slipping away. Plus, Lepay gives Kyle some marriage advice after he committed the unforgivable Wisconsin sports sin of leaving the Brewers game in the fifth inning before their dramatic comeback.

   Number 3: Mark Tauscher on Badgers Progress, Packers O-Line Concerns & Jordan Love vs. Brian Flores

   Mark Tauscher joins Kyle & Brust to react to Wisconsin’s loss to Notre Dame and explain why, despite the second-half collapse, he still feels significantly better about the Badgers than he did a year ago. Tausch points to a more physical defense, an improved run game and Colton Joseph’s ability to create with his legs as reasons for optimism, while also acknowledging that Wisconsin still has plenty to prove after scoring just 13 points. The conversation then turns to the Packers, where Tausch reacts to Adam Stenovich admitting the offensive line remains a work in progress because of injuries. He explains why Green Bay’s biggest problem against Brian Flores won’t necessarily be exotic blitzes, but whether the Packers can consistently handle Minnesota’s front four. Plus, Tausch discusses the lack of confidence in the current offensive line, why young players eventually have to be trusted to develop, and why Jordan Love should be ready to punish pressure if the protection holds up.

   Number 4: Mark Tauscher’s Packers State of the Union: O-Line Concerns & Jordan Love’s Opportunity

   Mark Tauscher joins Kyle & Brust for his Packers State of the Union heading into Week 1. Tausch explains why he feels good about Jordan Love, the receiving weapons, Tucker Kraft and much of the defense, but has serious concerns about Green Bay’s offensive line and running back room. With Josh Jacobs unavailable, Tausch breaks down how Matt LaFleur can protect Love with a quicker passing game and why the quarterback may need to become the Packers’ biggest playmaker early in the season. Plus, Tausch explains why he expects Micah Parsons to return sooner rather than later, what he needs to see from Lukas Van Ness in Parsons’ absence, and why Jonathan Gannon will have to manufacture pressure early in the season. He also reacts to Matt LaFleur potentially rotating offensive linemen and explains why constantly shuffling players can make it even harder for Green Bay to find its best five up front.
