Wisconsin football coach Luke Fickell was blunt in his postgame press conference comments following the 44-25 loss at Nebraska Saturday. The Badgers' coach commented on the struggles in Lincoln, the team's inability to tackle, and more.
"I don’t have any excuses. We didn’t play well. The complementary football that we have to have on the road in particular. It’s snowballed to be played really, really poor," Fickell said during his postgame press conference comments.in the second half" was a key issue against Nebraska. The Cornhuskers were dominant offensively, as freshman quarterback Dylan Raiola finished 28-of-38 for 293 passing yards and one score.
"We’ve got to challenge ourselves. We’re going to look real deep here in a short week and find who's with us and who's willing to put it all, lay it all out on the line for these seniors coming up next week," Fickell said. "It's about leadership. And I know there's body blows that take a toll, but you got to find ways to get back up each and every week. That's where we're really struggling. We play really, really well, and then we get to a situation where things don't go well. You can't find a way to kind of regroup and have the poise enough to be able to make some adjustments and play better, especially in the second half.
"I don't have an answer. Can't put a finger on it, other than go back to work and make sure you know who you got with you and who's willing to do the same things that you would want to do to be addicted to this fight," Fickell said.
