This is bigger than just tossing a few band geeks out of the game. The Wisky band is a huge part of the Camp Randal experience, without them how effective will the 12th man be. Will the aOSU band overpower the home crowd? These dorks are being investigated for hazing, alchohol abuse, and sexual misconduct....geez thats what frats were for when I went to school.

I'm thinking they'll pipe in some music like they do House of Pain after the 3rd quarter.

Just a general comment...I hate it when a team plays actual music over their sound system. The soundtrack of college football should be only the sounds of the bands. No exceptions...

I concur. I just know they have the PA hooked up because of that Jump Around thing they do. They might as well use it. Maybe some tracks of the band over the PA.

This isn’t the first time the band has been in hot water on these particular issues. You don’t even want to know what our frats are up to. I think the student body took it kind of hard when Wisconsin was dropped off of the list of top party schools this year.
