Pack it Up, Wisconsin. Alabama's the One Jumping

"Pack it up, pack it in, let me begin
I came to win, battle me, that's a sin"

Alabama came to win and told the Wisconsin Badgers to pack it up following a 42-10 victory on the road. It was the first time in nearly a century that Alabama traveled to Madison, Wisconsin to take on the Badgers, and the first time since 2011 that Alabama traveled to Big 10 country for a football game.

In 2011, Alabama, led by veteran quarterback AJ McCarron, defeated Penn State in Happy Valley 27-11. In 2024, the game was a little more lopsided in favor of the Crimson Tide, led by veteran quarterback Jalen Milroe.

"Word to your moms, I came to drop bombs
I got more rhymes than the Bible's got Psalms
And just like the Prodigal Son, I've returned
Anyone steppin' to me, you'll get burned"

Milroe dropped bombs on the Badgers on Saturday. His day was finished midway through the fourth quarter, but not before completing 71% of his passes for 196 yards and three passing touchdowns while adding 75 yards and two touchdowns on the ground.

Alabama enjoyed itself in the fourth quarter, jumping and dancing to "Jump Around," the song that Wisconsin plays when transitioning from the third to the fourth quarter. Think of it as the Midwestern "Dixieland Delight".

"I came to get down, I came to get down
So get out your seat and jump around

Jump around (jump around)
Jump around (jump around)
Jump around (jump around)
Jump up, jump up, and get down"

And jump around, Alabama did. The Crimson Tide forced four fumbles against the Badgers, led by the veteran crew of Malachi Moore and Deontae Lawson.

Alabama wide receiver Germie Bernard did a good bit of jumping himself, hauling in three passes for 55 yards and the beauty of a touchdown from quarterback Jalen Milroe just before halftime.

Bernard had strong comments about Wisconsin's song following Alabama's win, "Honestly, we had a tough week of practice listening to that jump song. We was ready to just shut that weak-ass jump song down.”

And shut it down, Alabama did.
