0-4 Big ten!! Love it

Really made my day.

[MuggsyB]

The Badgers would not have won with Hepburn either.

[Mutaman]

Thought Iowa State was a well coached hard nosed team. Bad environment, biased officiating, and they overcame it.

Time for Davison to go punch some nuts in the Y league.  👀

[Fred Garvin]

Now Notre Dame your next!!

Not sure about that.

Can't be forgotten that Wisconsin will have a 70+% crowd in Chicago next weekend.

Whatever. I wanna be done talking about this because I hate it.

Who are the 70+% crowd of Wisconsin fans cheering for in Chicago next weekend?

[Mutaman]

All the dumb hot takes about people complaining about Wisconsin playing in Milwaukee.

It never mattered, it never does in March.

It matters.

[wadesworld]

Auburn plays unhinged.  They are a very emotional team.  Wisconsin is the exact type of team that knows how to fluster and bury a team like that.

Kansas is our only hope.

Sad.

[DegenerateDish]

It matters.

The final score suggests otherwise.

[Mutaman]

The final score suggests otherwise.

It matters and Iowa St overcame it. Officiating matters too and they overcame that.

Thought Iowa State was a well coached hard nosed team. Bad environment, biased officiating, and they overcame it.

Totally agree.

We talk about the refs deciding this and the refs deciding that, but Iowa State was mentally tough enough and made enough plays to ensure that the refs couldn't "steal" it from them.

As for Hunter ... even though he couldn't make a shot if his life depended on it, I was impressed with his floor presence, and he made a huge play to save the ball near the end of the game.

That’s like saying home court doesn’t matter in sports.

UW clearly had an advantage by having a home court setting. That doesn’t guarantee they win.

What was silly is complaining about it. The Tourney is set up to give the top 4 seeds that advantage. They earned it with a strong regular season. They didn’t take advantage of it. On the ropes against Colgate and lost to Iowa State.

But it absolutely matters. There’s very little chance a team like South Carolina goes on the run they do in 2017 if they play Duke with a crowd of 80% Duke fans. They caught a huge break playing them with the crowd behind them.

I wonder if Fiserv Forum security would let me in to watch the next game in Purdue/Texas. Should be good seats available.

Yeah that’s going to look awful on TV. Would’ve been a lot better to have the UW game the second game of the session.

[MuggsyB]

Not sure about that.

Fluffy, if the game was officiated properly Iowa St. wins comfortably even though they can't score. 

[wadesworld]

Johnny Davis shoots 4-14 on the biggest stage of his career. From what I’ve learned on Scoop, Johnny just fell out of the Draft and will be back at UW next year. #notready

[Mutaman]

Totally agree.

 Iowa State was mentally tough enough and made enough plays to ensure that the refs couldn't "steal" it from them.

Really like their body language throughout-they just looked confident. Badgers looked frustrated and very uptight.

[JWags85]

Davis is an great player obviously, but after watching him carry an otherwise meh Wisconsin team all year, it was delightful watching him go 4/16 and 0/7 as they flamed out

Also, it’s always amusing this time of year as the rest of the country is annoyed and baffled as the rediscover Wisconsin’s “defense” and flopping.

[Mutaman]

No rushing the court today.

[wadesworld]

What a dumb play by Notre Dame. Defenders back and the guy just grabs his jersey anyway.

[CountryRoads]

They can take the “Welcome to Milwaukee. Home of the Badgers” sign down now.

Big 10 once again with an absolute flameout in the NCAA.  9 bids.  Only 1 potential Sweet 16 team.  A lot like Big 10 football - never really relevant on the national scene, and consistently overrated.

[MUfan12]

Never been happier to be wrong. Thought this UW team had a horseshoe up their arse this year and expected the worst.

Purdue and Michigan?
