You would have never known by watching the badgers game, a big 35point favorite going into the game. The badgers made a change in the second half and it really changed the game around. The badgers count get things going around. They put in alex hornibrook. He moved wisconsin down the the home team up 133. The panthers get their first touchdown of the game with the 13yard touchdown. Badgers up 1310. Panthers playing tough. Georgia state up 1713. But the badgers would answer. Hornibrook rolls out and finds Kyle Penniston for a touchdown. The badgers back on top, 2017. Wisconsin would hold on and win here is the head coach. You grow from what happens and you build on the things you do well and you find ways to get a little bit better, and i dont know how i wouldnt know how to answer that, but appreciate what this group did, and its you know what, were 30 going in the big ten play, and that part the packers and vikings step into prime time tomorrow night in minnesota. Here is Wayne Larrivee talking about the vikings defense. The Minnesota Vikings suffered the cruelest of breaks when teddy bridgewater went down with a devastating knee injury. Its not like the packers losing Aaron Rodgers, because with or without bridgewater this on defense. The best offense was its defense that scored twice in an opening day win at tennessee last week. There is all pro talent on all three levels. Upfront defensive end everson griffin. In passing situations, griffen is complimented on the other side by hunter whose quickness were evident on this 24yard fumble return touchdown. On t paid safety in the game today is harrison smith. Allowing coach mike zimmer to mix up looks without swapping personnel. Because smith excels at the line of scrimmage and in man and zone coverages. Minnesotas defense might now be the clubs best offense. Last week at tennessee the unit scored on an interception and fumble return to fuel the vikings 2516 comeback victory. So trust me, reports of the vikings demise in the wake of quite premature. With the scouting report, im Wayne Larrivee. The brewers taking care of business. In the eighth inning its braun with another two run shot. Good guys up 63. Still in the eighth, that is santana with a solo shot to left. The brewers beat the best team in baseball wit wow. Thats good. Thats sports. Russ feingold so, what do you girls want to be when you grow up . Girl 1 i want to be an astronomer. Girl 2 i want to be a doctor Russ Feingold do you think you should be paid the same as boys . Girl 1 definitely. Girl 2 yep Russ Feingold well, i raised my two girls right here, and they agree with you and so do i. Unfortunately, in wisconsin, a lot of women make less than men doing the same job. Pay for women, and for paid leave so parents can care for a sick family member. Discrimination against any women is flat out wrong. What you think of that . Girls good call feingold im Russ Feingold breaking news, Milwaukee Police are investigating after two babies were abducted this afternoon. They say the mother parked her car on the street while it was still running, and ran into the house near 49th and concordia. Thats when the suspect took the car and drove off. The womans two 10monthold twins were inside the car. The children were later found unharmed inside the vehicle, but they were taken to the hospital as a precaution. Much more on this story coming lets get a final check of weather. Nice evening on top of the great day. The winds are finally dying down, temperatures in the 60s by 10 00. Were back into the 70s tomorrow. Going to be beautiful out there. Sounds great. And i love talking about the demise of the vikings premature, huh . They got a good defense, but the packers have Aaron Rodgers at quarterback and hes going to be the best player on the field thanks so much for joining us today.
