    Nebraska Cornhuskers Preview with Corn Nation

    On today’s episode of Bucky’s 5th podcast, we’ve got plenty to get to. To start, we talk about Wisconsin Men’s basketball's recent contest with UW-Green Bay.

    Wisconsin Football vs. Iowa Preview with Black Heart Gold Pants

    Wisconsin Football vs. Iowa Preview with Black Heart Gold Pants

    On today’s episode of Bucky’s 5th Podcast, we’ve got a huge contest to preview as the Badgers and Hawkeyes meet to battle it out for the Heartland Trophy. To start, we discuss how the Badgers offense will look to move the football against what looks like a very, very strong Iowa run defense.... at least on paper. After that, we talk about how the Wisconsin defense will look to attack this Iowa offense that has been, well, bad for most of the season in 2022. Later, we talk about a key to victory, players to watch, and get into a score prediction.
    In the back half of the show, we are joined by Ben Ross of Black Heart Gold Pants to get an insider's look at the Iowa Hawkeyes. Personally, I think it’s the best interview of the season thus far so make sure to check it out!

Get your facts straight

We play Marquette this Saturday the 3rd, not Colgate. Also please do something about he audio. I don’t understand it. And stop saying someone played good; it’s someone played WELL.

Content

I was hoping for a realistic view of Bucky football but my lord! Absolutely pathetic homer take of this program. Is this bought & paid for by UW Athletics!? Listened once & not again.

Sound quality

Love love love the show, but dude you have to figure out your sound/microphone. It sounds like you broadcasting from an empty barn silo. All love though, roll badge.
