Huh?  Espn showed 39-22...  I promise osu wins that game

[Tugg Speedman]

that was a typo ... fixed.

Bucky now up by 15

I'm always impressed w the scheduling genius of UW at Madison..., every tough game seems to be at home.

I may eat these words, but this is a promise that won't be kept. 
Wisconsin is DOMINATING this game.  Book a W for Bucky.

I have noticed that too
they seem to play every huge game at the end of the season at home

[cheebs09]

Also, I believe it was mentioned Bruesewitz gets perms. That just makes me laugh and also doesn't surprise me all that much.

!?QUE?!  

They play every conference opponent twice.

I figured Madison is good for the 8 minute drought.

48-31 under 15 in 2H

Oh How I Hate
Ohio State!

It's possible on most days, but not today.  They're hitting
every jump shot they take.  And Team Brutus doesn't seem
interested in playing D today.  Or rebounding.  

(Edit:  Essentially, Wisconsin is playing a Bishop game--like the
Caddyshack Bishop.  INFALLIBLE.)

[Lennys Tap]

!?QUE?!  

They play every conference opponent twice.  

Actually they play 7 teams twice and 4 teams (this year Indiana, Purdue, Michigan and Northwestern) once.

Bo is playing an All Traditional Line Up that stretched the lead to 23

It may be very fortunate that the Carrier Classic got canceled.

We probably would have lost, and since then, we have continued to improve, while OSU is on the decline.  We may even be ranked over ahead of them on Monday.

In retrospect, the Carrier Classic game may have ended up doing some real damage to our RPI.

[forgetful]

Watching this game it seems impossible that OSU has 14 fouls to 5 for Wisconsin.  OSU got called for a could on a jump stop (a little body contact). UW hacks away and no call.

Gotta love the home town refs in Madison.

[Dr. Blackheart]

Does anyone else feel that Craft is way overrated, that Sullinger made him?  Don't get me wrong, he is a good on ball defender but has been exposed this year a bit. His Offensive rating is down 6 points, his eFG % has dropped 10 clicks as has his FT rate, dropping 24 points. Jackson has had some blow by's on him today. I always felt MU could have taken tOSU on the Carrier.

OKEY DOKE! 

Soooo...they play tOSU twice, @ Indiana, Sparty twice,
and Gophers twice.

That is hardly indicative of  the "they don't play tough
games on the road claim.

!?QUE?!

NO. They do not play each B1G team twice. Each team plays 18 conference games. There are currently 12 B1G schools.

Once again you are wrong. Moron.

I think Lab's point was that Wisconsin, despite the claim here, plays plenty of tough road games.

At Indiana
At Illinois
At Michigan State
At Minnesota
At Marquette
At Ohio State

I would argue playing at Iowa this year has been a trip from hell for many schools, too.  IU and MSU won there by a combined 7 points.  Iowa City is a tough out for the general level of team they are.

Claims the guy who writes haikus, and posts
black and white photos of shirtless 70s
dips***s, and elderly ladies at bars that closed 30
years ago.

PARTY ON.

Badgers are really playing well lately.

Badgers are really playing well lately. 

Shocking to nobody who follows hoops.  The annual drum beat that "this is the year" they will suck again fails to ring true.  Lose your point guard for the season...no problem.  Toughest league in the country...no problem.  Honestly, don't know how they do it because they aren't athletic, they don't shoot well, but they find a way.

I will give them credit also, especially after losing Gasser for the year.  Their schedule is pretty easy the rest of the way, so they should do alright.

BTW, that Evan's dunk with like 3 minutes left was sick.

Like we agreed Ryan has always found a way to win. He has run that system since he was at Platteville and it works. Not sure I agree that B1G is the toughest conference but it has a cluster of very good teams, including our Alma Maters at the top of that heap. Once you get past Blue, IU, and MSU there is  Minn & Ohio. Then not much.

I would say the current Big East compares favorably with the B1G today. SU & UL then GU, MU, Pitt, UC, and UND. Then not much.

As for the other conferences the SEC, ACC, Big XII, and Pac 12 are all down.

And they will lose to a crappy team early in the NCAA's again.

They have the most ridiculous home court advantage (refs) in the NCAA.
