Badger therapy: Positive thinking

Bret Bielema is filling two jobs this week: University of Wisconsin football coach and counselor.

“The part that we have to understand and get across to our players is: â??Youâ??re a very good football team. Youâ??re a 5-2 football team that has done some good things,â??” Bielema said after UW limped into its bye week with a 20-10 Big Ten Conference loss to Iowa. “Unfortunately weâ??ve played two very good opponents that we didnâ??t play well in the second half.â??.â??.â??.

“Our guys are very hungry. And Iâ??ll have to make them understand where they can finish.”
