Chancellor Biddy Martin, joined by UW Board of Regents President Charles Pruitt and former KimberlyClark executive Kathi Seifert, discussed the financing of higher education at a forum yesterday.

UW panel discusses financing higher ed By Molly Reppen The Daily Cardinal

Chancellor Biddy Martin, former Kimberly-Clark Executive Kathi Seifert and UW Board of Regents President Charles Pruitt held a panel to discuss financing public higher education Wednesday at a Public Representation Organization of Faculty Senate event. Martin said her Badger Partnership proposal, which attempts to gain more autonomy from the state and increase needbased aid to students through

a tuition increase, is a possible way to keep Wisconsin a great place for education, research and development. The panel discussed how UW-Madison can help the state of Wisconsin from an educational standpoint. “Arguably, the state needs more graduates. But not just any graduates, but graduates with a kind of education that prepares them for the challenges of the 21st century,” Martin said. “The state also needs more jobs, urgently.” According to Martin, the state

of Wisconsin is below average for faculty salaries, while the states’ health and other benefits are much ahead of other states. Martin said UW-Madison needs financial support from the state to help subsidize the growing costs of research and other academic expenses as the university becomes increasingly competitive internationally. “Even maintaining the quality of research and education that we have now costs more now than it education page 3

President Barack Obama will speak on Library Mall Tuesday to kick off his Moving America Forward tour in preparation for the upcoming midterm elections, according to the Democratic National Committee. The rally will be free to the public. The site will open at 3:30 p.m. and the event will begin at 4:45 p.m. “The president is extremely excited,” Derrick Plummer, regional press secretary for the DNC, said. “It’s going to be a great start to the last five weeks of this very important campaign.” Singer-songwriter Ben Harper will also appear at the rally and perform for the crowd, according to Plummer. “Young people have been criti-

cal to the movement that elected President Obama in 2008, and from health reform to credit card and student loan reform young people benefited from the change President Obama and Democrats have brought to the country,” DNC Chairman Tim Kaine said in a statement. The event will mark the president’s sixth visit to the state since assuming office in 2009. “It shows how important Wisconsin is to the president and to the Democratic party,” Plummer said. President Obama will be the first sitting president to appear at UW-Madison since President Harry Truman’s visit to campus in 1950. —Ariel Shapiro

West Nile Virus diagnosed in Wisconsin The Wisconsin Department of Health Services reported the year’s first human case of West Nile Virus in the state. A Washington County resident was diagnosed with the virus during an ordinary blood donation screening. The Blood Center of Wisconsin has since destroyed all of the blood samples from the patient. After the diagnosis, the patient experienced mild West Nile symptoms. The DHS said symptoms of the virus can include fever, headache and rash within three to 15 days after contracting the virus. However, the chances of contracting West Nile are slim and many with the disease do not even experience symptoms, according to the DHS. Although this is the first human

case of West Nile in 2010, it has been reported in three groups of mosquitoes and three dead birds. The DHS recommends residents take steps toward preventing contraction of the disease, including keeping window screens repaired, using repellant and avoiding the outdoors at dawn and dusk.

Urban Design grants Edgewater final approval By Jourdan Miller The Daily Cardinal

The Urban Design Commission granted the Edgewater Hotel expansion final approval in an 8-2 vote Wednesday. Edgewater architect David Manfredi, of Elkus Manfredi Architects, presented the committee plans, which he said have remained the same since the plans were last proposed. Manfredi said his desire is to maintain the historical character of the current Edgewater building and work on blending it with the proposed addition. “These buildings talk to each other in a fundamentally organizational way,” Manfredi said. “This is a rehabilitation project,” Manfredi added. “The goal is to put the building back together the way it was originally on its exterior.” Even with the approval, a large

concern for community and committee members alike is the level of disturbance the new lighting on the building may cause. “This is not a Las Vegas façade,” architect Ingrid Masters said. “We are at the lower end of lighting, but we don’t want darkness. Our priorities are to blend with the neighborhood. We have decided to err on the conservative side.” Committee members questioned whether these lighting concerns take precedence in the finalization of the Edgewater plans. “We would love a residentiallooking building. A heavily lit building is highly inappropriate for this district. We expect it to be like the rest of the neighborhood,” an opposing resident said. Additionally the committee decided to move forward with

plans for a new West Mifflin Street apartment complex. Architect John Bieno presented his tentative plan for a new 42-unit apartment complex to the committee. Committee members responded with concern regarding the structure and overall design of the proposed complex. “In this neighborhood it should look like an apartment, not like an apartment building that’s trying to look like a home. I want to see something more urban,” committee member Melissa Huggins said. Committee Chairperson Richard Wagner echoed Huggins’ statements, saying, “There is no design coherence.” Ald. Marsha Rummel, District 6, concluded by saying the plans are “not quite there yet.” “We’re still in the preliminary stages,” Bieno said.

ou know what’s fun? Naively identifying with songs that have no relation to you whatsoever. When I was a child, carrying my Power Rangers lunchbox in one hand and practicing “rock, paper, scissors” strategies with my other, I’d innocently sing songs about slapping booty as I made my way to school. Throughout my life it seems as though my enthusiasm for a catchy beat has made me lose friends, gotten me in trouble or made me question if I’m having an identity crisis. Here are some examples: 1. In kindergarten, if you knew what was good for you, you joined baton club. A) The instructor was the kindergarten teacher so it meant you could bide more time with her. If you were a cool kid like me, that of course meant she’d secretly pick you as her favorite and thus she’d give you more stickers on your homework. B) There was an annual baton show where you got to flaunt your moves in front of the whole freaking school. C) Do you really need another reason? Weeks before the show, my routine was planned and I had my sweet, sweet moves down pat, but I still needed to find a song to rock the house with. I have two older brothers, so, naturally, I sought their guidance. Basically they told me if I wanted to be idolized by the student body, there was only one song that could truly put me on the map—“Peaches” by The Presidents of the United States of America. I gave the song a listen and confidently decided it would be the anthem that brought me glory.

The big day came and I was more nervous than Smalls when he is trying to catch a ball for the first time in “The Sandlot.” After a myriad of Disney songs were played for other girls’ performances, I was up. Sporting acid wash overalls and a blinding bright orange shirt, I took the floor. Three minutes and 15 missed baton catches later, I was on the map all right. I’m sure to the older kids I became “the headbanging girl with blunt bangs who had music taste way beyond her years.” To the kids my own age I probably became “Kathleen: the strange girl; steer clear of her.” If I had 17 friends (that’s being generous) prior to the performance, it definitely plummeted to around three (tops) by the end of the day.

2. In second grade I memorized Snoop Dogg’s “Gin and Juice” and taught the lyrics to my friend Sam, because I obviously had to share with her the storyline that embodied our entire seven years of existence. “I got b*tches in the living room gettin’ it on / And they ain’t leavin’ til six in the morning.” Yeah, we basically wrote that. So we were spitting out Snoop’s hot rhymes on the playground when a nun overheard us drop a swear word. She made us stay after school and write on the board in our limited vocabulary, “I will not say bad words. They hurt God’s ears,” 100 times. Honestly, I don’t think that did the trick. What she really needed to do was put a muzzle on me.

So we were spitting out Snoop’s hot rhymes on the playground when a nun overheard us drop a swear word.

3. Despite TLC explicitly telling their listeners what a scrub is A) a guy that thinks he’s fly, B) also known as a ‘buster,’ C) always talking about what he wants, D) sits on his broke ass—I still don’t think at the age of 10 I truly knew what a scrub was. But, that was a minor detail; nothing would get in the way of me singing the song at the top of my lungs. What was the first album I ever bought, you ask? Well, that, my friend, was the Mary Poppins soundtrack. Second purchase was Spice Girls, duh! Third was TLC’s Fan Mail because they were just preaching the story of my life and I couldn’t pass up paying respect where respect was due. TLC for sure wrote “No Scrubs” for me; I had so many boy troubles back then. 4. The first song that I actually considered the meaning behind the lyrics was Joan Osborne’s “One of Us?” My brother and I were riding our bikes and I had one of those bad boys that had a boom box attached to the handlebars. Like a couple of goons we were singing along and that’s when it hit me. I thought to myself, “What if God WAS one of us? Holy moly! If God is my brother, that guy riding his bike right next to me on this gravel road, then God really likes McDonald’s breakfast, has a chronic nasal problem and sleeps with his mouth open.” In the middle of this epiphany I was spacing out so much I didn’t notice the approaching curb. Thanks for nothing, Joan and your existential lyrics; where can I send you the hospital bill for that broken arm? Does anyone know what became of Scotty Smalls, or better yet, what became of Benny “The Jet” Rodriguez? They were both easy on the eyes. If you know of their whereabouts, or if you have songs you belt out but shouldn’t, talk to me at kqbrosnan@wisc.edu.

education from page 1 ever has, and the cost of maintaining that quality will continue to grow,” Martin said. “That is because of the competitiveness internationally.” UW-Madison professors are paid based on competitive markets between professor salaries at other higher-education institutions. According to Pruitt, with the challenges the university faces, it needs to run as a business in order to be more efficient economically. “If we are to be challenged as a university system to behave more like a business, I would think that we may ought to have more flexibility and behave like a business,” Pruitt said. Seifert said education has a direct correlation between higherpaid jobs and job growth within the state of Wisconsin. “I think that communicating [with the legislature] and helping them appreciate and understand how everything is linked together, they will appreciate the importance of having a high quality of education in the state of Wisconsin,” Seifert said.

ASM discusses leave policy, gives homecoming grant

By Ariel Shapiro Gov. Jim Doyle announced Wednesday he will proceed with the removal process for Calumet County District Attorney Kenneth Kratz as he received two formal complaints from County residents. “Today I received a verified complaint against DA Kratz and I have begun the process to remove him from office,” Doyle said in a statement. “As a former threeterm District Attorney and a former three-term Attorney General I have worked hard to protect victims of crime, and I am deeply troubled by the accounts of DA Kratz’s actions.” Heather Severson of Appleton, Wis., and Kathleen Gloff from Chilton, Wis., each filed a complaint against Kratz, who has been accused by numerous women of sexual harassment and abuses of his position. Neither Severson nor Gloff said they were personally harassed by Kratz, but they each said in their complaints that they sympathize with the victims, particularly with Stephanie Van Groll, a domestic abuse victim, for personal reasons. Gloff, a volunteer with Harbor House Domestic Abuse Programs, said she is deeply concerned by Kratz’s conduct, and believes it constitutes “inefficiency, neglect of duty, official misconduct or malfeasance.” Severson said she has a particular interest in the issue because of a friend she once lost to domestic violence. “If speaking out changes the way one person thinks about domestic violence, I have done my job,” she said in her complaint. Doyle took the next step of the removal process and appointed Kenosha County District Attorney Bob Jambois as commissioner of the case. “I want every crime victim, particularly those of sensitive crimes such as domestic violence, sexual assault and child abuse to know they can go into a police station or a prosecutor’s office and be treated in a professional and respectful manner,” Doyle said.

The proposed plans for Retro Tavern on West Main Street spark controversy at neighborhood meeting on Wednesday.

Tensions rise at neighborhood meeting over proposed bar By Grace Gleason The Daily Cardinal

Heated debates developed at a neighborhood meeting Tuesday over the potential alcohol licensing of the proposed Retro Tavern at 111 West Main St. The majority of the neighborhood’s residents present at the meeting expressed strong opposition to the Retro Tavern’s potential service of alcohol. Madison residents and students alike were concerned about the late-night noise the bar’s patrons might bring into their neighborhood. Some residents present at the meeting were concerned about the lack of diversity on a block with all bars and taverns. However, a few were supportive of new life in a space that has been vacant for several years. Nearby neighbor Erin Decker and several other residents were willing to accept the tavern as part of their community. “When I think of the alternative business owners who could come in here, I think this is a nice alternative,” Decker said.

The applicants, father-andson team Curtis and Matt Brink, offered their plan for the tavern at the meeting. The tavern would be a 9,600 square foot, threestory space used as a restaurant, bar and live music venue. The Brinks, also owners of the High Noon Saloon and Brink Lounge in Madison, said they hope the tavern will be a place to dine, host parties or play pool in the game room upstairs. “We would be catering to an older crowd,” Matt Brink said. Attendees of the meeting were able to suggest conditions of the tavern’s license, such as the maximum occupancy and closing hours. Ald. Mike Verveer, District 4, said feedback from this public meeting will be greatly taken into consideration when the Brinks apply for an alcohol license before Madison’s Alcohol License Review Committee Sept. 29. “What I’m going to do is take all of the input under advisement,” Verveer said. “I still have mixed feelings.”

The Associated Students of Madison decided to grant $19,185 to help fund UW-Madison’s homecoming celebration this year and debated a member’s leave of absence request at their weekly meeting Wednesday. The nearly $20,000 to be rewarded to the UW Homecoming Committee will cover expenses such as printing, advertising, space and equipment rentals. Nominations Chair Andrea Nichols requested a leave of absence from Sept. 29, 2010 until Dec. 20, 2010. The leave of absence would mean Nichols would remain nominations chair, but would not attend ASM meetings during that specified time period. Student Services Finance Committee Chair Matt Manes said he understands Nichols is busy, but she should still attend meetings. “She’s just really, really busy right now and wants to stay involved, but right now really just isn’t the time for her to do that,”

said Manes. The chair of nominations is paid a stipend of $3,500 per year. Some members said it is not fair for someone in a paid position to not attend meetings. “I think that a paid position inside of student council cannot be too busy,” said Shared Governance Chair Kyle VandenLangenberg. Other members said that although ASM is important, studies must be a top priority. “We are all students when we’re doing our jobs here. I think that’s extremely important for everyone to recognize,” said former ASM Chair Tyler Junger. ASM did not reach a decision regarding the requirements of the chair of nominations position. Nichols did not attend the meeting and declined to comment. ASM members also discussed minor alterations to the bylaws, which include changing the name of “Academic Affairs Committee” to “University Affairs Committee” and allowing meeting agendas to be more flexible.

UW professor projects $3.1 B deficit UW-Madison professor of public affairs and applied economics Andrew Reschovsky predicted the Wisconsin deficit to increase to $3.1 billion in the next biennium. In a report released this week, Reschovsky used the Wisconsin Legislative Fiscal Bureau’s evaluation of the state’s fiscal condition and then factored in the cost of maintaining public services at the level they are now. The LFB projected a deficit of $2.88 billion for the next biennium, which accounts for the budget between 2011-2013. Reschovsky said in order to maintain major public services such as education and medical assistance, spending will need to increase by 1.75 percent a year on

the conservative end. The average yearly rate of growth since 2000 is 2.5 percent. “There are two reasons why the cost of public service grows over time. First, the state’s population is growing,” he wrote. “Second, the state government has limited control over the prices it must pay to purchase goods and services.” Although Reschovsky said greater efficiency in spending could help reduce the deficit, more needs to be done. “Policymakers will need to close the fiscal deficit by cutting spending, increasing state revenues, or a combination of the two approaches,” he said. —Ariel Shapiro

An alternative approach to the energy debate As the energy crisis continues, UW-Madison researchers are getting students more involved. Together, they are working to make technology to produce renewable energy sources. Story by Diana Savage Danny Marchewka/the daily cardinal

Troy Runge prepares biomass for conversion into fuel.

ir pollution and a depleting oil supply are two things we know we contribute to. But what are we doing about it? Scientists at UW-Madison are currently researching ways to replace coal, oil and natural gas with biofuels, solar energy and wind energy. Research facilities on campus such as the Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center and the Wisconsin Bioenergy Initiative are at the forefront of research in renewable energy. “At this current rate [of consumption] we’ll run out of oil,” said Troy Runge, director of the Wisconsin Energy Institute. “We are a long time from that, but at the same time, it will take us a long time to [convert to using] biofuels.” Biomass like trees, grasses and corn can be converted into energy to fuel cars and generate electricity. This biofuel is just one of the many alternatives to non-renewable energy sources like coal and oil. According to Runge, however, biofuels will not be widely used in the U.S. so long as there is no market for it. His lab currently takes cheap biomass and converts it into useful products like levulinic acid and solid fuel, used to create energy in a cleaner way than coal. “I’m excited that we’re actually making [biofuel] where companies can actually commercialize it, because we are utilizing a very cheap feedstock and we’re maximizing value in several streams,” Runge said. Runge’s biological systems engineering lab has been open for just over a year. “We have some neat discoveries here that are just starting, and working with other researchers,” Runge said, especially the research he is doing alongside Jim Dumesic, a professor in the department of chemical and biological engineering. Earlier this year, Dumesic’s breakthrough discovery was converting cellulose—a biomass— to fuel using catalysis, a type of chemical reaction. Runge’s lab is currently working on all processes

of converting biomass to fuel in an economical way. Pamella Wipperfurth, a second year master’s student in Biological System Engineering, is doing research in Runge’s lab. She is working to optimize the energy potential of biomass, specifically ligdocellulose biomass. Wipperfurth’s goal is to “pretreat” biomass in the most energyefficient way, breaking it down to a product that can be transformed into fuel. “I’m comparing the heating value of the final solids,” Wipperfurth said. “The heating value would tell me how much energy they produce.” The final solids will produce energy when they are combusted, in the same way coal is burned to create energy. Tim Donohue, Director of the Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center, is also working on creating renewable energy. The GLBRC’s mission is to generate liquid transportation fuels from a cleaner source. “Right now when you go to the gas station, maybe it has 10 percent ethanol in it, and that ethanol comes from corn starch in the United States,” Donohue said. “We’d like to be able to infiltrate biofuels into as many engines as we can.” “Our technology that we’re studying at GLBRC is not producing any of the ethanol that goes in your car today. We are generating next generation technology to make liquid transportation fuels from the non-edible part of the plant [called cellulose].” GLBRC focuses on liquid transportation fuels because they account for approximately onethird of the country’s energy use, according to Donohue. “We’re working on helping to diversify a third of the energy grid and at best,” Donohue said, “Congress and the country would be ecstatic if we could replace a third of the fossil fuels that goes into automotive, jet, and plane engines with cellulosic fuels by 2030.” This fall, the university will

begin constructing the Wisconsin Energy Institute to bring together researchers from the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences and the College of Engineering to work together on creating technology to produce clean energy. The WBI and the GLBRC will be the two primary occupants of the new building. “We’re creating a whole new field here,” Donohue said. “This center is both solving today’s problems but also training the leads in the fields for tomorrow.” According to Runge, however, renewable energy research is not free from criticism. Critics question why companies are not yet using more biofuels after years of research. “The public is used to things happening at a faster pace,” Runge said. “If [integrating biofuels] takes 20 years, and we don’t see gas prices going down, and don’t see it making a personal impact on people’s lives …people just move onto the next thing and say, ‘Well it’s not that important.’” But the conversion will take some time. By far the biggest criticism has been a question of economic feasibility, Runge said.

“When you make the argument that we need to be using biomass, it makes a lot of sense when you talk about liquid transportation fuels, but it is a harder argument to make about coal because the U.S. has a lot of coal that will last us a long time,” Runge said. The Wisconsin Energy Institute will provide both graduate and undergraduate students with opportunities to research renewable energy and advance the replacement of fossil fuels. But, according to Troy Runge, the institute is not just about research. Education and outreach will be on the first floor of the institute. “Outreach is as important as the research and it gets lost in the shuffle,” Runge said. “We want to bring people in and want people to see that this is the kind of research that is going on. It is supposed to be this portal to the energy research going on in the university.” The goal with outreach is to remind people that every time someone fires up the car engine, flips on a light switch or turns on the furnace, they use up more resources, both from overseas and the domestic supply. “Hopefully when students in this research area move out into the business world, they will continue

that kind of research and invest in those ideas,” said UW-Madison Faculty Associate in the Nelson Institute of Environmental Studies Richard Shaten said. “And hopefully people will learn about their own consumption behavior.” Donohue highlighted the educational aspect of the new center. “These two institutions have a unique mission of education and training of students,” Donohue said. “Embedded in our mission is also providing student training and research opportunities to do that.” UW-Madison faculty and scientists are not alone in converting Wisconsin to using renewable energy. The Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center has roughly 100 undergraduate students and 75 PhD students researching renewable energy, according to Donohue. “This is a critical opportunity in an academic institution to expose students to research that will be at the forefront of the renewable energy revolution,” Donohue said. “It’s an exciting time for a student to be involved in the definition of what could be a totally new transformative renewable energy sector for the country and the world.”

Starring as the film’s primary actor and director, Ben Affleck puts the “boss” back in Boston

By Todd Stevens THE DAILY CARDINAL

“The Town” begins with the tried and true Hollywood staple of the bank robbery scene, and much like a Bruce Springsteen concert, all the old hits are there. You have the meticulous band of thieves monitoring the entrance, bursting violently into the bank, yelling at customers and staff to get down on the floor. The calm, collected leader reminds everybody that their money is insured and they have no incentive to fight back. The hot-headed member grabs the most attractive woman on the bank’s staff and forces her to open the vault. The bandits grab all the cash they can handle, take the attractive bank employee hostage and make their getaway. It’s a scene the world has seen dozens, possibly hundreds of times before in movies. But it’s also executed with absolute cinematic perfection, something very few heist films can claim. That is what keeps “The Town,” the sophomore directorial effort of Ben Affleck, from collapsing under the weight of its clichéd storyline. The plot is very simple: Bandit robs bank. Cops chase bandit. Bandit tries to get out of the game. Bandit goes out for one last score. It’s about as original as a ham sandwich, but it’s a delicious ham sandwich. Affleck has followed up his excellently crafted debut, “Gone Baby Gone,” with an even more finely tuned follow-up. And while the entire movie isn’t quite as flawless as the opening sequence, the former Mr. J-Lo is undoubtedly a force to be reckoned with behind the camera. Most notably Affleck exhibits a knack for setting. More than any one character or any nail-biting heist, “The Town” is

about its title locale, the Boston neighborhood of Charlestown. The movie bills Charlestown as the bank robbery capital of the world, but what is more important is Affleck’s depiction of the neighborhood as an inescapable blue collar purgatory. Affleck’s Charlestown is a place where the working class are forced to turn to thievery or dealing Oxycodone in order to make ends meet, all while watching yuppies encroach on their home turf. Thankfully Affleck doesn’t fall into the trap he found in “Gone Baby Gone,” where he haphazardly threw in images of abject poverty to the point of overkill. Instead, he focuses on the characters’ dueling conflict between the longing desire to leave for greener pastures and the urge to preserve one’s childhood home.

but Affleck and Renner have enough screen presence to make this an irrelevant detail. Rebecca Hall adds additional talent in her role as the shell-shocked bank employee that serves as Affleck’s love interest, as does Blake Lively as his former flame. Jon Hamm rounds out the ensemble well with a gleefully unlikeable perfor-

mance as the lead FBI agent. Unfortunately, the setting does manage to become overbearing at points. The film’s third act centers on a robbery of Fenway Park, just to make sure everybody remembers the movie is set in Boston–as if the accents, Red Sox attire and countless shots of the Zakim

Bridge weren’t enough of a hint. But for the most part, “The Town” avoids these missteps, instead perfectly matching the steps of its predecessors. It may be the exact same concoction, but it’s crafted with choice ingredients, and that’s just enough to ensure the continued success of the revived Affleck brand.

[“The Town”] is about as original as a ham sandwich, but it’s a delicious ham sandwich.

Nowhere is that conflict better exhibited than the relationship between the two noteworthy bandits from the opening scene. Affleck himself plays the calm, collected brains of the quartet, someone who is clearly too smart to stay confined but unable to break free of the Charlestown chains. Meanwhile, Jeremy Renner of “The Hurt Locker” fits nicely into the part of the hot-headed best friend who has simply put too much of his life into Charlestown to ever think of abandoning his home. Both roles, much like the plot, have seen countless prior renditions,

From Gibbs to Sufjan to Beach House: an extended look at the extended play KYLE SPARKS total awesome

’ve got a short attention span. Real short. So while I can certainly appreciate longwinded mixtapes and extended double LPs, I usually skip around or occupy myself elsewhere while Sonic Youth keeps track of time in the background. Generally speaking, I prefer music pocketsized, often in the form of EPs or 7" records. I guess I’m not the only one, either. In the past calendar year, more and more artists seem to be embracing the art of the extended play record. The EP was created in the 1980s by record labels and bands looking for an easy promotional tool. Labels would pick the choice nugs from the bands’ LPs and ship them off to disc jockeys who would sift through them and circulate the hit singles over the radio. Likewise, venue employees would hear these brief snippets and decide which bands they wanted to book at their joints.

But nowadays, most promotional work is done over the Internet. A few thousand bands and record labels send mp3s and press releases to a few million email inboxes, and everything else just sort of happens all the same. As far as promotion is concerned, the EP has been streamlined into solitary mp3s. But people still produce EPs and 7" records. A lot of them. Most of you will remember the hullabaloo generated by Sufjan Stevens’ unannounced All Delighted People EP just a few weeks ago, but even that seemed more like a clearinghouse of old ideas than something as deliberate as, say, Freddie Gibbs’ Str8 Killa EP. Str8 Killa is nowhere near as accomplished as Gangsta Gibbs’ longer mixtapes, but it does serve as a ﬁtting introduction to a gangster rapper who takes no prisoners. It brought one of underground rap’s most heralded talents to an audience that couldn’t always stomach the extended vulgarities or harsh street narratives. Other bands wield the EP for different purposes. Japandroids are an excitable garage-rock duo from

Vancouver, British Columbia, who are as lovelorn as they are spunky. They broke it big early last year with their explosive, albeit brief debut LP, Post-Nothing. But while they’ve spent the time since touring their fun-loving live show across the globe, they’ve stayed in our collective conscious by introducing a series of 7" records on Polyvinyl label.

In the past calendar year, more and more artists seem to be embracing the art of the Extended Play record.

The series includes ﬁve previously unreleased tracks from the band’s Post-Nothing sessions, each paired with a cover. The EPs are slated for periodic release throughout the year, ostensibly culminating in the kind of anticipation that would eagerly purchase a brand new LP shortly thereafter. Likewise, Tallest Man on Earth recently released an iTunes exclusive EP entitled Sometimes the Blues is Just a Passing Bird. The ﬁve new

songs on the EP serve as a gentle reminder that Kristian Matsson is maybe the most pure, proliﬁc troubadour we’re likely to hear. Beach House did the same on their own recent iTunes sessions—though those songs did little more than remind us that the kind of full-bodied beauty on their 2010 release, Teen Dream, is not easily replicable. But while Beach House might not have really helped their cause for Teen Dream’s lasting relevance, they didn’t do much to hurt it, either. The EP is a lowcost maneuver because it requires very little investment from us listeners—we can just as easily dis-

card it as we can use it as a launch pad into a new favorite artist. Sure, it’s extremely impressive when a rapper can freestyle so well over 18 tracks in one week; and there’s something really powerful about the way certain bands seem to meld meaty themes and subjects into long-form albums. I totally get into the kind of intellectual stimuli that challenge contemporary narrative structures. I like all that stuff. But there’s a lot going on over the Internet, and sometimes I need an abridged version to tell me whether or not I’m wasting my time.

Kratz ‘sexting’ unacceptable JAIME BRACKEEN opinion columnist

Wolf population too high I By Donnie Radcliffe OPINION COLUMNIST

’m sure you remember “I’ll huff, and I’ll puff, and I’ll blow your house down!” Since we were little kids, we have learned to fear the wolf, the “savage” killer. Their eerie howl causes chills to run down the spine of anyone in earshot. In reality, the wolf is a vital predator, essential to the ecosystems it inhabits. In recent years, Wisconsin has been blessed with the reintroduction of wolves following migration from upper Minnesota. Lately, however, this blessing has become too much of a good thing. Wolf populations have grown beyond their carrying capacity, endangering their habitat. For this reason, the grey wolf of the Western Great Lakes Distinct Population Segment (consisting mostly of Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan) was removed from the Endangered Species List in 2009, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

For the good of wolves in Wisconsin, numbers must be culled.

Unfortunately, lawsuits from the Humane Society of the United States and other groups have successfully put the grey wolf back on the list. This denies the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources the hunting power they need. It’s simple: since there are too many wolves, we need to remove them from the endangered species list so the DNR can carry out a controlled harvest. In 1999, the Wisconsin DNR formed a management plan, setting a goal for wolf recovery at 350 animals in the state. They estimated the state carrying capacity at around 500, but at the time these guidelines were set, the wolf population was estimated at about 205. Just 11 years later, the wolf population is estimated to be 690. In that short time span, the population almost tripled, almost doubling the DNR goal. This year, wolf numbers are 190 above the estimated carrying capacity. Without human intervention, wolf numbers are controlled through starvation. When wolf numbers grow too high, they kill too many animals of prey, in turn leading many predators to starve. This allows prey numbers to grow once again. Human intervention would prevent the growth of prey species to recover from heavy predation, in the form of both hunting and habitat destruction. High wolf numbers could have potentially devastating consequences on the wildlife of northern Wisconsin, especially on the whitetail deer, the number one food

really wish Kenneth Kratz was one of the many adults who don’t know how to text. Unfortunately, that’s just not the case. The Calumet County District Attorney, is currently under fire for sexually suggestive text messages he sent to a client last October. Kratz has tried to downplay this scandal for several months, which accounts for the large gap in time before the Associated Press caught wind of the story and all hell broke loose. The recipient of these vulgar messages was 26-year-old Stephanie Van Groll, the client of 50-year-old Kratz. Van Groll was the victim of domestic abuse and Kratz was prosecuting her ex-boyfriend on strangulation charges. Kratz sent 30 illicit text messages over the span of three days. In one message, he referred to her as a “tall, young, hot nymph.” I didn’t think 50-year-olds even knew what the word “nymph” meant. And how his pudgy little fingers could type this out on the keyboard of a phone is beyond me, but it gets even more disturbing. When Van Groll would take too long to respond to one of his messages, he would start to get offended and begin sending her demeaning text messages, taking shots at her level of confidence and using this lack of self-esteem as an excuse for why she wasn’t more into the thought of a secret relationship. It never struck him that this woman was simply not interested. How a man as idiotic as Kratz was ever elected to the post of District Attorney is incomprehensible—he must have been good at concealing the lust for his clients in his beady eyes during the campaigning process. To pursue a woman in this way who has fallen victim to domestic abuse is one of the lowest lows you can sink to. Van Groll went to Kratz for help, trusting him to take care of her and protect her through the court system. Kratz

took this confidence in his abilities to highly unprofessional levels. She even feared Kratz would drop the case against her ex-boyfriend if she didn’t cooperate with him. This could have led to her abuser going free and gaining the opportunity to harm her again. Luckily, Van Groll was a strong enough woman to report this harassment after only a few days, which lead to Kratz removing himself from the case and the beginnings of a police investigation. I commend her for not letting this awful man walk all over her just because he was in a position of higher authority. It doesn’t matter who you are, you do not ask a client if she is “the kind of girl that likes secret contact with an older married elected DA” However, what scares me is that the harassment Kratz committed is not considered misconduct or even illegal. I guess that’s a testament to our legal system ... if the crime isn’t bad enough, we can’t do anything about it. But I say forget procedure, this man needs to be out of our courts. Wisconsin Gov. Jim Doyle has now said that he will begin the process of attempting to remove Kratz from his position, being that this pride-less man refuses to resign. The attorney made a statement to the press that he is “deeply sorry” to everyone involved and embarrassed at his actions. If he were truly sorry and embarrassed he would never have done it in the first place. He would have known better than to speak to someone so derogatively. Kratz is only sorry Van Groll didn’t share his interest in the affair. Kratz wife filed for divorce in December, and other women have stepped up accusing him of unwanted sexual advances. In the meantime, Kratz is taking medical leave from his position as DA in order to seek out psychiatric help, which is good. So what can we take away from these unfortunate events? I’d say always practice safe sexting by doing it with someone who’s actually interested. Jaime Brackeen is a sophomore majoring in journalism. Please send all feedback to opinion@dailycardinal.com.

Big Ten hockey may be in UW’s future, but it’s not the right move

Football

NICO SAVIDGE savidge nation

LORENZO ZEMELLA/CARDINAL FILE PHOTO

Seniors Gabe Carimi and John Mofﬁtt (74) have combined to make 71 starts for the Badgers. They anchor the left side of a UW offensive line that features as much talent as any in the Big Ten.

Competition on O-line to be settled this week By Parker Gabriel THE DAILY CARDINAL

For many teams in the country, finding five reliable options along the offensive line is one of the biggest challenges on any given week. That is not a problem for the Badgers this year. Entering this weekend’s matchup with Austin Peay, head coach Bret Bielema said he wants to finalize five starters before the beginning of the Big Ten confrence schedule. The difference is UW has a surplus of bodies that have kept the picture fuzzy. The Badgers have seven legitimate options, and while the left side is solidified with First Team All-Big Ten senior Gabe Carimi entrenched at left tackle, senior John Moffitt at left guard and sophomore Peter Konz taking over at center, the right side features two position battles that still need to be sorted out. At right guard, senior Bill Nagy and junior Kevin Zietler have split time with the starting unit both in practice and in the first three games. At right tackle, junior Josh Oglesby took some criticism from his coaches for inconsistent play early in the year and then left UW’s victory over San Jose State Sept. 11 with a knee injury. Sophomore Ricky Wagner started in his place against Arizona State last week and is making a case to keep the job. “Ricky [Wagner] played a hell of a game on Saturday,”Carimi said.

“That’s good for [Oglesby] because, even though Ricky deﬁnitely doesn’t have that spot [solidiﬁed], neither does [Oglesby] and the competition is just going to bring the best player out, whoever that is.” While Oglesby possesses the physical tools to be an elite tackle and has 25 starts under his belt, procedure penalties and mental errors have drawn the ire of the coaching staff. Offensive line coach Bob Bostad said he is looking for each to be sharp physically and mentally.

“We’re looking for the guy that can handle the full range of what we’re asking them to do.” Bob Bostad offensive line coach UW football

“We’re looking for the most consistent guy and the guy that can handle the full range of what we’re asking them to do,” he said. “It’s got to be everything from being a physical run blocker to being great in pass protection.” Wagner said he has not thought about the fact that a starter may be named after Saturday, but noted that having so much talent in one unit is beneﬁcial. “We all want to see each other

get better and it’s a great way for us to play our best every day at practice,” Wagner said. The physical nature of playing in the trenches means injuries are a part of the position, but Moffitt said this group has shown the ability to make the best of every situation. “We’ve got a lot of guys that have had a chance to develop and guys that took opportunities during injuries,” Moffitt said. “The benefit of that is you have experienced guys and guys that have played in a lot of football games.” That might be significantly understating the situation. The Badgers’ top seven offensive linemen have a combined 128 starts, or an average of 18.3 starts per man. On top of that, sophomore Travis Frederick, who last year became the first true freshman offensive lineman to start a season opener in program history, has not appeared in a game this year and will redshirt to ease the logjam and preserve eligibility. Redshirt freshman Ryan Groy, naturally a guard, has also worked his way into the conversation, although not by lining up in the trenches. He has appeared in all three games for UW this year at fullback. “It’s unbelievable,” Carimi said. “If somebody goes down, we’ve got somebody to back them up. It’s awesome to have that depth and have that confidence that we can just plug and chug and go.”

He may not be a student athlete at UW anymore, and he went over 140 characters, but Michael Davies wins this week:

his isn’t exactly going to be a groundbreaking observation, but it’s true: rivalries are the backbone of college sports. We spend four years (or more) of our lives at one institution. Other, stupider people spend four years (or more) of their lives at an inferior institution we consider our enemy. The battle lines are drawn: We are the good guys, they are our foes, opposed to all that is righteous in the world. Obviously, here at Wisconsin the main rival in every sport is Minnesota, but of course the Gophers aren’t the Badgers’ only rivals. Let’s not forget about the animosity football fans feel toward Ohio State or Michigan, the intrastate battle between Wisconsin and Marquette basketball or the storied hockey rivalries between the Badgers and North Dakota or Denver. In the past week, however, those hockey rivalries have been put in jeopardy. When Penn State announced it would join Division I hockey in the 2012-’13 season it was unquestionably a positive for the sport. One of the biggest names in college athletics would join the game’s top ranks, bringing with it a dedicated (and potentially lucrative) fan base. And with Penn State’s plans came the rumors of a Big Ten hockey conference to include the Nittany Lions, Minnesota, Michigan, Michigan State, Ohio State and Wisconsin.

A Big Ten conference could cost the Badgers some of their biggest rivalries.

Ofﬁcial word from the Big Ten is that they need to discuss a lot more before they will move toward a hockey conference. But based on what we’ve seen in the past few days from members of this Athletic Department, Big Ten hockey is looking like a reality. Athletic Director Barry Alvarez told the Wisconsin State Journal he thinks the program will move toward the Big Ten and out of the WCHA. When I talked to him Tuesday, men’s hockey head coach Mike Eaves said there have been plenty of indications that Big Ten hockey will become a reality. All of this is good, in theory. Wisconsin and other Big Ten schools will be able to make more money from TV contracts on the Big Ten Network, which can also give the game better media exposure and potentially bring in more fans. But a Big Ten conference could cost the Badgers some of their big-

gest rivalries, namely the ones they have with equally historic teams in the WCHA. The atmosphere in a hockey game against North Dakota or Denver is unreal. It’s hard to imagine the Kohl Center getting louder than it was when the Badgers beat the Pioneers last spring, or matching the excitement in the building before those sold out games against the Sioux back in 2008.

From a fan’s perspective, the Badgers should stay in the WCHA if only for the sake of those fantastic rivalries.

Eaves said Wisconsin will try to schedule games against their old WCHA rivals if they make the move to the Big Ten, but there will not be any guarantee of playing all the historic teams Badger hockey fans are used to seeing. That is reassuring—after all, Wisconsin and Marquette are non-conference basketball rivals that meet every year. So hopefully we can count on Wisconsin seeing North Dakota or Denver in the fall or in some non-conference Christmas-time action each year. But the atmosphere that made those games against the Pioneers and Sioux won’t be the same if the teams meet once a year in early-season, non-conference games. Those spring series when both teams are in the hunt for the WCHA title—those amazing March games that can determine who wins the MacNaughton Cup —will be gone. Plus, Wisconsin will miss out on great games against other WCHA teams like St. Cloud State and Minnesota-Duluth that have emerged as recent challengers to conference’s historic top tier. The Badgers’ most obvious rival, Minnesota, would move with Wisconsin to the Big Ten, preserving perhaps college hockey’s greatest rivalry. Still, the loss of other WCHA rivals would be a serious blow the rest of the year. From a fan’s perspective, the Badgers should stay in the WCHA if only for the sake of those fantastic rivalries. But the lure of the major conference—and major conference money—might be too strong. Given a choice between TV broadcasts on Wisconsin Public Television and a more lucrative deal with the Big Ten Network, it’s clear which direction the athletic department would probably go in. In general, Big Ten hockey will probably be a good thing for the game as a whole, giving the sport regular exposure on a larger network. For fans who value some of the sport’s best rivalries, however, it could be a real disappointment. Is Big Ten hockey a good idea? E-mail Nico at savidgewilki@daily cardinal.com.

Re-tooning their game

Lorenzo zemella/cardinal file photo

Pass catchers like tight tend Lance Kendricks and wide receiver Jared Abbrederis have had to fill the void left by Nick Toon and David Gilreath, who are injured.

njuries affect any football team over the course of a season, and the Badgers have been no exception. Through the first three games

of the year the Badgers have sustained injuries to both of their starting wide receivers, junior Nick Toon and senior David Gilreath. In their absence, the team’s other receivers have had to fill the void in the passing game created by their injuries. Story by Ryan Evans

Last season, Toon emerged as the Badgers’ main receiving threat and established himself as a premier receiver in the Big Ten by leading the team with 54 receptions for 804 yards to go along with four touchdown grabs. But this year didn’t start off as many expected for Toon. During the team’s opener against UNLV he suffered a turf toe injury that has kept him out of the last three games. NFL players have said that the one injury they fear above all oth-

ers is turf toe. This is because it a very painful injury, and its effects can vary from player to player, causing the recovery process to be a difficult one. For those who don’t know what turf toe it is exactly, the injury occurs when a player aggravates the socket the big toe sits in. This injury can be very painful because, as Toon put it, “you don’t realize how much you use something like your big toe until you can’t use it. You use it with

every step you take and obviously it makes running difficult.” “It feels good right now,” Toon said. “I practiced a little bit today and it felt good. So for now I’m going to take it day by day and if I feel good on Saturday then I’m going to be out there playing.” In wake of the injuries to the team’s two starters, the Badgers have had to look to other sources in the passing game. One player who has really stepped up is senior tight end Lance Kendricks. Tight ends are always a big part of the Wisconsin offense, but Kendricks has seen his role increase even more in the wake of the injuries to the receiving core. Kendricks said coming to Wisconsin as a receiver has helped him contribute even more in the passing game. “Because I came in as a receiver I know a lot of the routes they run,” he said. “The coaches know I’m comfortable doing that so in games they know they can split me out wide and use me as a receiver if needed.” Kendricks has also developed good on-field chemistry with senior quarterback Scott Tolzien. In the two games without Toon in

the lineup, Kendricks has totaled 10 catches for 191 yards and the only two passing touchdowns the Badgers have this season. “In practice is where we try to get it where it needs to be,” Kendricks said of his relationship with Tolzien. “But our chemistry is getting really good, he’s really getting comfortable throwing me the ball and using me split out and everything.” Kendricks also said he relishes his newfound role as the passing game’s go-to guy. “I definitely like being in that role,” he said. “I like that the guys can count on me to go out there and make the big plays when we need them.” Another receiver, freshman Jared Abbrederis, has seen his playing time increase significantly with Gilreath out of the lineup. In his first game starting last week against Arizona State, Abbrederis caught three balls for 35 yards to go along with 19 rushing yards on two end-around plays. “Everyone has stepped up,” Abbrederis said. “Me, Jeff Duckworth, Isaac [Anderson], everybody has put it on their shoulders and worked really hard in practice to get where we are

so we’re able to go out there and compete every game.” “We just need to make sure we catch every ball that comes our way so that the quarterbacks have faith in us and will keep throwing us the ball,” he added. “We also have to block so that the running backs or whoever is carrying the ball can get touchdowns.” Abbrederis has also stepped into Gilreath’s usual role of punt returner. He recieved his first action in that spot last week against the Sun Devils. “I like returning punts,” Abbrederis said. “Last game was great because I was able to get in there and get some experience doing it. So hopefully I can keep doing it well, not make mistakes and just go out there and have fun.” With his replacements playing well, Toon said he has high hopes for this team once he and the other injured players are able to return. “The guys out there now have done a decent job of stepping up and doing what needs to be done,” he said. “We’re winning games and that is what really matters. But we haven’t seen our team at full strength yet, and I’m excited to see us at full strength.”

Wisconsin vs. Austin Peay

12345 things to watch

1 Response of the defense Following the news that sophomore linebacker Chris Borland will miss the remainder of the season, the Badger faithful are anxious to see how the defense will respond after losing one of its leaders. The 2009 Big Ten freshman of the Year tied for second in the conference with five forced fumbles while compiling 54 tackles, including 10.5 for loss and 5 sacks. Without him, there is a considerable amount of added pressure on the team's remaining linebackers, sophomore Mike Taylor, senior Culmer St Jean and senior Blake Sorenson to step up their production, especially against the run. In last Saturday’s 20-19 win over Arizona State, the Sun Devils exploited the Badgers' wounded defense when Borland departed, piling up 169 rushing yards. It will be interesting to see whether the defense plays with a chip on its shoulder and prove they can still be a formidable unit without Borland.

heavy dose of running Austin Peay will have the daunting task of trying to stall Wisconsin's dominant run game, which is 20th in the nation, averaging 228 yards per game. After racking up 194 rushing yards in the victory over Arizona State, the Badgers and their massive offensive line are looking forward to facing an undersized defense that has allowed 657 total rushing yards and 219 yards per game. The Governor's 56-33 thrashing by Middle Tennessee on Sept. 11 was a prime example of Austin Peay’s inability to stop the runas they gave up 353 yards and seven touchdowns. Look for Wisconsin to establish the ground game early and render the Governors' run defense obsolete. Also, the game could serve as a great opportunity for all three Badger running backs to receive playing time and head

into Big Ten play with some valuable momentum.

open targets While the main objective of the Badgers' offense will be to run the football, an effective rushing attack usually opens up the field for the passing game. Since Austin Peay's defense will be so preoccupied with stopping Wisconsin’s vaunted run offense, the Badgers will be able to exploit the Governor’s pass defense through playaction and deep field passes. With wide receivers Nick Toon and David Gilreath still reeling from injuries, senior quarterback Scott Tolzien will be looking for his go-to target: senior tight end Lance Kendricks. Kendricks caught seven passes for a career-high 131 yards and a touch-

down against Arizona State, continuing the recent trend of sure-handed, athletic tight ends that have been a staple of Wisconsin’s offense. Keep a look out for emerging freshman receiver Jared Abbrederis as well, who has been a consistent threat, hauling in eight receptions for 93 yards against the Sun Devils.

homefield advantage Having a strong home field can pay huge dividends, especially against opponents that are venturing into uncharted territory. Austin Peay will face its first BCS conference opponent in the school’s history at one of the toughest venues in college footbal, Camp Randall Stadium, which is known for the fan's close proximity to the field and incredible noise they can

generate. On top of that the Badgers have been exceptional at home, going 38-4 since the beginning of 2004 and winning 27 straight non-conference regular season games, the third-longest active streak in the nation behind only LSU and USC. In fact, Wisconsin's last loss to a non-conference adversary was just over seven years ago, when UNLV defeated Wisconsin 23-5 Sept. 13, 2003. The Governor's are a highly unlikely to end that streak with its inexperience at this level and playing in a stadium that boasts a capacity of over 80,000 Badger fans.

Execution of special team If Badger's are serious about being a national contender, it is imperative they recover from last Saturday’s horrendous display on special teams,

when they gave up numerous long returns that could have easily cost them the game. Arizona State completely embarrassed the Badgers special teams, racking up 261 yards, more than either its rushing and passing total yards in the game. To add insult to injury, Wisconsin’s special teams allowed Arizona State’s Omar Bolden to run back a kickoff 97 yards for a touchdown in the first quarter and nearly let another touchdown slip away before halftime. A shoe-string tackle by sophomore safety Shelton Johnson at the 1-yard line prevented Kyle Middlebrooks from returning the kick-off 95 yards and giving Arizona State a 20-13 lead. Even with injuries, it was an unacceptable performance for this unit and if it stays that way, the Badgers' title hopes could be dashed.

Evan Royster’s Nittany Lions aspire to make the Big Ten proud as they host the Temple Owls this Saturday in a clash for Pennsylvania pride. By Sam Sussman & Jon Gorman GAMEDAY

While Temple and Notre Dame look to silence doubters, Alabama kicks off conference play. Temple vs. Penn State The Mid-American Conference Temple Owls come into this weekend’s game against in-state rival No. 23 Penn State with a record that reads 0-27 in head-to-head matchups since 1941. The Owls also have a season record that reads 3-0 for the first time since 1979, in contrast to Penn State’s record of 2-1. With Pittsburgh’s disappointing season-opening loss at Utah, this battle between two Pennsylvania programs will likely lead to the unveiling of the Keystone State’s finest. Since renewing the rivalry in 2006, the Nittany Lions have torn the Owls to shreds by cumulative point total of 154-9, while outgaining Temple by 1,073 yards. This year may be different, however, as the Owls are led by the reigning MAC rushing leader, sophomore running back Bernard Pierce. The Nittany Lions have a talented running back of their own in senior Evan Royster, who needs just 371 yards to become Penn State’s all-time leading rusher. However, Royster hasn’t surpassed 40 yards rushing in any of his initial three games this season. While the Big Ten is still the Big Ten and the MAC remains the MAC, if this is a close game don’t be surprised to hear silence in University Park. Temple scored 16 fourth-quarter points to beat Connecticut, 18 to rally past Villanova and beat Central Michigan in overtime. Alabama vs. Arkansas The No. 1 team in the nation, will travel to Razorback stadium this weekend to take on No. 10 Arkansas. Alabama is led by sophomore running back Trent Richardson and last year’s Heisman winner, junior running back Mark Ingram. Returning from injury last week against Duke, Ingram amassed 151 yards and two touchdowns on only nine carries. Meanwhile Richardson is the lightning to Ingram’s thunder, providing a speedier option out of the backfield for the Tide. The Alabama passing attack is led by senior quarterback Greg McElroy and junior wide receiver Julio Jones, who have one of the best rapports in

the country. The Alabama defense, ranked second in the country in points allowed with 6.3 per game, will be put to the test by Arkansas’ NFL-caliber junior quarterback Ryan Mallett. Mallett directs the third best passing attack in the nation, throwing for nine touchdowns and more than 1,000 yards. The Arkansas defense is also one of the best in the country, as they only allow an average of 11.3 points per game. The Razorbacks will look to avenge the 49-14 defeat they suffered at the hands of the Tide in 2008 in which Mallett was held to a meager 12-35 performance for only 160 yards. If Arkansas has any chance at the upset, Mallett will have to step up and greatly improve on his performance from two years ago. Stanford vs. Notre Dame After two consescutive last minute losses, Notre Dame and head coach Brian Kelly will hope to rebound against Heisman hopeful junior quarterback Andrew Luck and No. 16 Stanford. Kelly came into the 2010 season full of confidence in his ability to restore Notre Dame football to the level of its historic past. In spite of that, the previous two weeks have ended in two losses by a combined seven points to Big Ten foes Michigan and Michigan State. However, another chance to begin the program resurrection rolls into South Bend, Ind., this Saturday at 3:30 p.m., this time in the form of a top Pac-10 team. Stanford’s offense is piloted flawlessly by Luck, who has thrown 10 touchdowns and no interceptions in his first three games. Even with the loss of 2009 Heisman Trophy Finalist Toby Gerhart to the NFL, the Cardinal have their school’s highest ranking at this point in the season since 1972. The Fighting Irish believe they can threaten the Cardinal’s new era of Luck

and fortune, as junior quarterback Dayne Crist looks to avenge last year’s 38-45 loss in Palo Alto, Calif. However with the Cardinal’s FBSleading pass defense, Notre Dame

will need to utilize options other than Crist if they hope to avoid doing what no Fighting Irish team has done in 18 years: Surrender a loss to Stanford in South Bend.
