I see so many similarities to 2010-11. Lots of skill talent and a QB who can make most of the needed throws.
I still think last years O could have been damn good prior to Covid/DD and Prior injuries. Watch some of the sets here as well as how PC takes advantage of Tolzien's abilities and it may look a bit like what we might see this fall.. Mertz has a higher ceiling yet like ST had in 2009, he had some major growing pains in 2020. I see a similar progression this year and expect GM to be 2nd team behind Penix.
For those who loved Gordon and JT and may be a a bit new to badger fball, the combo of John clay and James white was so special. Add 2-3 All big ten OL and two good wr's and an AA TE and this 2010/11 team was loaded(See below)
We don't have as good of an OL yet at skill and qb, I think we are pretty comparable. Also, our D will be light years better than that one as JJ and Scofield were great yet, we lacked some edge speed and depth. UW doesn't have that issue this fall
