The guys are back to sort through Forward Madison’s 3–1 loss to FC Tulsa in the U.S. Open Cup—a match that started with promise and ended with a reminder of the margin between leagues. We cover Bartman’s well-taken goal, some missed calls, and Tulsa’s ability to punish mistakes.

Then it’s on to the annual Battle for Madison, where UW pushed harder than expected and Laurie Bell calmly tucked away a late equalizer. We also look ahead to Thursday’s away match at Charlotte, featuring the return of Christian Chaney (in a different jersey this time), and preview our first-ever live show with an audience on April 18 at Breese—right after the 2025 home kit reveal.
