Are the Green Bay Packers due for their own Pat Murphy? After a flat, embarrassing Thursday night loss, we take on the question Packers fans keep asking: is it time to hold Matt LaFleur accountable? We compare Green Bay's lack of urgency to the Milwaukee Brewers, who won 103 games for the first time in franchise history and swept the Cardinals in meaningless games. Manager Pat Murphy still pulled star catcher William Contreras for not running out a grounder. That's the standard the Packers are missing. Then we get into the coaching candidates. Would a Curt Cignetti-type hire be the "Pat Murphy of football"? We weigh the boom-or-bust risk, plus Marcus Freeman as a middle-ground option and NFL names like Brian Flores, Chris Shula, and Sean McDermott. We also ask whether LaFleur has a lifeline.

Tapping The Keg is bringing back the Game Review podcast where Charlie goes over a nearly instant reaction of what happened in the Wisconsin Sports world. In this podcast, he is recapping the awful loss suffered by the Green Bay Packers. The podcast begins with Charlie explaining why the Packers actually needed the collapse to happen in the 2026 season. This might sound crazy after all that happened last year but he feels it is needed for the Packers to be successful. He also explains his Matt Lafleur 'hit or stay' on 16 theory. Charlie goes over Golden Kegs of who played the best including Jordan Love, Christian Watson, Trey Smack, Edgerrin Cooper plus the Tapped The Kegs of who was the worst including the 4th down decision, Shawn Hochuli, JJ Watt, Jayden Reed and more. Finally, Charlie opens it up to talk Milwaukee Brewers, Wisconsin Badgers, Obsession, Sydney Sweeney and more!

Wisconsin got the win over Western Illinois, 36-9 — but did the performance leave us with more concerns than confidence? On today's show, we break down everything that stood out from the Badgers' home opener. We'll talk about Colton Joseph and the passing game, Abu Sama and the running backs, the offensive line, Wisconsin's defensive performance, Luke Fickell and the coaching staff, and why a comfortable final score didn't necessarily feel like a comfortable win. Plus, we go position by position through the Wisconsin roster identifying the things we feel like we can already say with confidence. What have we learned? What looks legitimately good? What are the warning signs? And what are we still waiting to see? Wisconsin is 1-1, but with Big Ten play getting closer, how much should we take away from what we saw against Western Illinois?

They go through the Packers offense, defense, and special teams. From there, Charlie and Mitch talk about why this Milwaukee Brewers season and Charlie asks if he's crazy for thinking this is a more special season than years past? They actually think it's the case. Lastly, they discuss why the Wisconsin Badgers 'blowout' loss has more encouragement than some might think.

What's going on, everybody.  I'm your host, Cal Hutson on the Packernet Podcast Network, and if you're listening to this right now there's a pretty good chance you're either sitting in a parking lot outside Lambeau, stuck in traffic trying to get there, or already inside watching college kids run around on the frozen tundra like they own the place. It's Sunday, September 6th, and for one night only Lambeau Field belongs to the Wisconsin Badgers and Notre Dame. The Shamrock Series is in town, and the sight of those two teams warming up in our house is equal parts cool and deeply confusing. I mean, look around. The seats that normally hold cheeseheads in green and gold are suddenly full of red and gold and navy. The same tunnels the Packers walk through every Sunday are now being used by 19-year-olds who still have homework. And the same field that has seen Bart Starr, Brett Favre, Aaron Rodgers, and Jordan Love is about to host a bunch of kids who were probably in high school the last time the Packers made a deep playoff run.

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish surge past Wisconsin Badgers with CJ Carr's precision passing and brilliant decision-making, helping ND score a touchdown on each of its second half drives. Can Marcus Freeman's squad maintain this explosive momentum all season? Key defensive plays and a game-changing pick-six by DJ McKinney highlight the Irish's transformation after halftime, while discussions question whether Wisconsin's offense has the explosiveness needed to compete at the highest level.The Louisville Cardinals and Ole Miss Rebels ignite the Music City Kickoff with a fourth-quarter thriller, as Lincoln Kienholz rallies Louisville from a two-touchdown deficit and Trinidad Chambliss orchestrates Ole Miss's last-minute victory.

If you train high school athletes like Division I pros, you are destroying their potential. For 13 years at Wisconsin, Brian Bott built NFL offensive linemen and Rose Bowl champions using old-school grit—only to realize that the biggest mistake strength coaches make is confusing intensity with actual development. Bott reveals the hard-earned wisdom behind taking a 13-year-old from a broken squat pattern to a 500-pound lift, detailing why chasing glitzy speed drills over raw force production dooms young athletes to failure. He breaks down the exact conjugate framework he uses to build armor, protect fragile backs, and teach high schoolers how to handle brutal, back-to-back stress so they dominate when November comes. INSIDE THIS CONVERSATION Fixing Broken Movement: Why correcting bad motor patterns takes eight weeks—and why Bott would rather train a blank slate than a kid taught the wrong way. The 2010 Programming Shift: How Wisconsin linemen front squatted heavy during spring scrimmage weeks so they could survive the physical demands of late-season Big Ten football. Basketball vs. Football Wear and Tear: Why high school basketball players often sustain more back compression issues from repeated landings than football players do from squatting. Auto-Regulating Dynamic Effort: How to adjust speed work using bar velocity and readiness when athletes are drained from school, practice, and life stress. Minimal-Dose In-Season Training: The strategy that eliminates unnecessary accessory work to preserve shoulders while continuing to build real power. MEET THE GUEST Brian Bott spent 13 seasons as an Assistant Strength Coach for the University of Wisconsin Badgers, contributing to three Big Ten Championships, three Rose Bowl appearances, and developing elite NFL talent including Joe Thomas, J.J. Watt, and Russell Wilson. As the owner of Sports AdvantEdge—now expanded across seven locations—and Head Strength Coach for LOVB Madison, Bott has spent more than 25 years developing resilient, high-performance athletes through battle-tested conjugate methods and uncompromising technique.
