Rutgers looks like they might be rounding into being a tourney team after all

every team looks good while playing Nebraska

We looked awful, as did Ohio State

Fun afternoon.  #3 Purdue and #19 Seton Hall barely escaped upsets against unranked opponents.  #14 Texas and #15 Alabama couldn't.  #1 Baylor, #6 Kansas and undefeated #20 Colorado State all down to unranked teams in the second half.

Had a stretch of MSU, Illinois, and Purdue. Wonder if any of those get played

Better to forfeit than get your ass kicked, perhaps?

It is certainly convenient timing for a COVID outbreak.  This stretch of vs MSU, vs PU, @IL is three likely losses.  We project them to finish 6-14 and 13th place but if they miss those three and do not reschedule that improves their projected finish up to 6-11.

I was lucky enough to instead take my oldest daughter to the mall for a birthday party at a place where all the girls just took pictures of themselves.

Is Wisconsin the best team in the B1G?

Defense? Check.

Offense? Check.

Will? Check.

Chemistry? Check.

Coaching? Check.


Now, let's watch Maryland kick their ass tomorrow. Heh.

Shhh, read nothing of this friends. Wisconsin is just an OK lil team. Nothing to see here.

I thought their offense, outside of Davis, was looking painful at times. If they get that solved, the sky's the limit.

Brad Davison has some notes he took from his freshman year of stuff Adolph Rupp ran

He told Rupp that this set shot stuff was passe. Jumpers were where it's at.

The kid is in a position that I though wouldn't be good for him. His shooting has been only OK, but he's scoring 14.8 points per game, which is a little bonkers given the role he should have.

Really liking Tyler Wahl's game right now. Chuckie is playing well too, as is Bowman. The transfers are helping. Gilmore is helping. 

The kids can play.

A defense free first half in Columbus

[bayareabadger]

That was weird. Wisconsin came in on fire, blew a 21-point lead, survive a dogfight. 

Start of January conference play is rough for UW, so a 3-0 start is very good. As long as they hold up and win one of the next three, they're in good shape. If they go 2-1, VERY good shape.

Apparently Purdue@Michigan is rescheduled...
