What Paul Chryst said after Wisconsin's tough loss to Indiana
Wisconsin dropped to 2-2 on the season today after they lost to No. 12 Indiana, 14-6.
It was a low-scoring affair as Wisconsin couldn’t find the endzone at all, even when they had a chance with less than a minute to go. They turned it over on downs and all the Hoosiers had to do was just knee it a couple of times.
Quarterback Graham Mertz struggled immensely as he went 20-for-34 for 202 yards with an interception. They also couldn’t run the ball that well as their leading rusher (Jalen Berger) only had 87 yards rushing.
After the game, head coach Paul Chryst spoke to the media, and here’s what he had to say:
Paul Chryst: "You got to play good football to give yourself to be a good football team. When you're not doing that, you make it harder." Chryst listing off a ton of things that went wrong

Chryst on problems in the red zone: "We end up going to KP (Pryor) and we didn't finish off the play … We didn't make the plays down there. To beat good teams, you've got to make plays and we didn't make enough offensively."
