Ugly/scary/disconcerting as it was, Wisconsin handled their season-opener with Northern Iowa. Thanks to everyone who joined us on the GameThread -- it was a blast.

If anyone wants to chat about the extravaganza in JerryWorld tonight, this is your place. Of course, there are plenty of other games on right now and later, as well -- Clemson-Auburn, Hawaii-USC and North Texas-LSU. And why is that last one relevant? This fun nugget just came along the @B5Q Twitter feed:

Wisconsin's 17th straight home win matches LSU for the longest current streak. LSU can add to that with win tonight.
