Wisconsin defeated three top 10 teams this year and lost by a touchdown to two others.Now comes the hard part of the schedule: Saturday at Northwestern (noon ET, ABC).Huh? Dont laugh.The Wildcats (4-4, 3-2), who come into the contest tied with the No. 8 Badgers (6-2, 3-2), Minnesota and Iowa for second place in the Big Tens West Division -- one game behind Nebraska, have been a genuine thorn in the side to their neighbors to the north. The two campuses are only 142 miles apart.Wisconsin hasnt won at Ryan Field since 1999, a span of 17 years. The teams have met 10 times since with the Wildcats claiming a 6-4 advantage, including all four games played in Evanston.So maybe for an outsider looking in the contest doesnt seem as big for Wisconsin as playing LSU in Lambeau Field or handing Nebraska its first loss of the season 23-17 in overtime last week, but Badgers coach Paul Chryst has preached to his squad the importance of remaining focused heading into a November stretch that also includes games with Illinois (2-6, 1-4), Purdue (3-5, 1-4) and a season-ending showdown with Minnesota (6-2, 3-2).I think it is easy to buy into what people may be saying on the outside as far as getting through the gauntlet and this being the easy part of the schedule, Wisconsin cornerback Sojourn Shelton told UWBadgers.com. No part of playing college football games (is) easy. Our whole thing is just not getting complacent. I think weve played pretty good football. Now its just staying consistent.Youve got to try and ignore all the outside noise because none of it matters, Chryst said. We know this is a tough stretch.Especially with the way Northwestern played in October. The Wildcats went 3-1 with road wins at Iowa 38-31 and Michigan State 54-40 and a home victory over Indiana 24-14. The lone loss came last week at No. 6 Ohio State 24-20.The 3-1 October helped take some of the sting away from a poor 1/3 September that included back-to-back home losses to Western Michigan 22-21 and Illinois State 9-7.Its easy to come and show up for an Ohio State, or a Michigan State or an Iowa -- weve got to show up every game, and its really biting us in the butt right now, Northwestern quarterback Clayton Thorson said. Were a 4-4 football team, a .500 football team, and we know we shouldnt be.Northwestern would have shared the division lead had it beaten Ohio State last SaturdayIt obviously didnt start the way we wanted it to, spotting them a couple scores, but the guys didnt flinch and kept swinging, Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald said after the game. And, you know, we ended up one punch short.Buckeyes running back Curtis Samuel ran for a 3-yard touchdown with 9:43 left to break a 17-17 tie for a 24-17 lead. The Wildcats drove to the Ohio State 3 but had to settle for a 33-yard Jack Mitchell field goal that cut the deficit to 24-20.Ohio State quarterback J.T. Barrett converted a pair of third downs on the late drive that ate up the clock and denied Northwestern a final possession.Thorson was 22 of 42 for 256 yards with a touchdown and a first-quarter interception for Northwestern. Austin Carr, the Big Tens leading receiver, caught eight passes for a career-high 158 yards while Garrett Dickerson had a career-best eight grabs for 43 yards and a TD.Thorson has 15 touchdown passes, tied with Dan Persa (2010) for ninth all-time in a season at Northwestern.Carr, who caught a pass in his 17th consecutive game, moved into seventh in school single-season history with 878 receiving yards.Meanwhile, Wisconsin used a strong running game, in particular from Corey Clement, to knock off Nebraska.Senior Dare Ogunbowale rushed for 120 yards and a touchdown, Clement added 82 yards and freshman Bradrick Shaw scored a touchdown.I thought the run game was big, Chryst said.The passing game was a different matter. Redshirt freshman quarterback Alex Hornibrook started, but fifth-year senior Bart Houston ended the game. Hornibrook was 10 of 16 for 71 yards and a touchdown, while Houston completed 4 of 7 passes for 43 yards. Both quarterbacks threw an interception.There are a lot of things we need to work on in the quarterback room, Houston said.Chryst said Hornibrook will be the starter at quarterback against Northwestern. Hornibrook completed 75 of 131 passes for 948 yards with six touchdowns and seven interceptions. Houston is 52 of 84 for 629 yards with three touchdowns and three interceptions.

TAMPA, Fla. -- Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston may have planned to wear his Florida State flip-flops to One Buc Place Wednesday to celebrate his alma maters 45-34 come-from-behind win against Ole Miss, but his fiery halftime speech that went viral over the internet? That wasnt planned at all.I just didnt want those kids to be looking like that on national TV, said Winston, who traveled 90 minutes from Tampa to Orlando for the game Monday night. [Head] coach [Jimbo] Fisher, hes a great coach and I know they had it in them, just had to light some fire. And Ill tell you about that No. 12 [redshirt freshman quarterback Deondre Francois]. Florida State, baby. Thats all Im gonna say. Hes a baller.Fisher didnt even ask Winston, his former Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback who led FSU to an undefeated season and a National Title in 2013, to address the team. I tried to be quiet when I first got there but I felt we needed it, said Winston, who had been thrust into the spotlight himself as a redshirt freshman. So he began to speak.They already talking about the SEC. SEC! Winston shouted to the locker room. Florida State! Florida State, your brothers, your team, your heartbeat. We some dogs! We aint no puppies! We some dogs. Wide receivers, you all cannot be stopped the whole game. Weve got the best running back in the whole damn league. And weve got a quarterback thats going to toss that thing. O-line, wake up!The videeo was captured for A Season With Florida State Football, a TV show that premiered Tuesday on Showtime.dddddddddddd I really dont think they needed it, Winston said of the speech. I think Coach Fisher was going to get in their tail -- like he could barely talk -- but he was still getting on them. I just felt like I needed to say that.At the half, the Noles were down 28-13. Francois had led a nine-play, 75-yard scoring drive with 0:28 remaining that made the comeback even possible. On the drive, he found Travis Rudolph over the middle for a 16-yard touchdown, taking a big hit as the ball left his hands.I know how hard Coach Fisher worked and how hard he did to prepare those guys, Winston said. Then Coach Randy Sanders, he was [always] on the sideline with me. I knew when he wasnt on the sideline, I knew, Ive gotta get right.The Noles did get right, scoring 33 unanswered points to complete the biggest comeback win in school history. Francois completed 33 of 52 passing attempts for 419 yards and two touchdowns while Dalvin Cook rushed for 91 yards. Marcus Lewis and Tarvarus McFadden each had second-half interceptions, along with Derwin James pick in the first quarter.I cant even give you a summary of what I said, Winston admitted. It [was] truly just from the heart. I really love those guys in there. ' ' '
