Is it wrong…

[dahliaclone]

I think I’d rather play Wisconsin than Colgate? Crowd advantage Badgers for sure. But I’ve said for months Wisconsin is playing with fire. 15 wins of 6 points of less. I would also love to beat the big ten champ.

Bring ‘em on. Nothing to lose.

They aren't very impressive.

They're more uptempo than what ISU's seen but ISU might be able to muddle things up.

This team doesn't care about who they're playing in front of.

I like ISU to be able to get to the hoop easier but WI's posts will be a problem.

ISU has played some of their better games on the road this season. Sunday will be a road game.

Their profile is similar to Oklahoma. We'll definitely have to play well to win, but nothing this team hasn't seen before.

Who is more uptempo? Wisconsin certainly doesn’t appear to be.

I don't think it's as bad a matchup as LSU. Wisconsin isn't elite on either side of the ball.

 

[FerShizzle]

Wisconsin as a 3 seed and Texas Tech as a 3 seed is laughable. These teams aren’t even close to one another. Glad ISU got Wisconsin.

I guess when the brackets came out I thought ugh LSU will be tougher than Wisconsin. And I still think that.

Only thing I would say they are the most is the most cheap shots of any team I’ve seen.

They get up and down and shoot quickly in the shot clock. Not sure what the metrics show for official tempo but there's a stigma that WI plays their swing offense, grind it out style and that's not what they do. Haven't for a while.

Kenpom says that's not right... They're 211th on adjusted tempo.

Looking at their scores, it appears they are what most conferences would call an average pace team. Most of their scores were in that 60-73 range.

I found myself cheering for Wisconsin to win. Colgate can shoot. Plus, Gabe, Brockington, Tyrese, everybody really will get up more for playing Wisconsin and play with a chip on their shoulder or more of an edge.

I told my son, who was cheering for Colgate, because of course 14 seed equals easier road to the Sweet 16. It's really like six in one hand, half dozen in the other. Both those teams are pretty similar. The only difference was the Badgers had Davis.

No doubt. When you put it like that. Wisconsin is like a 6 or 7 seed compared to Tech or Tennessee.

Difference is, Wisc has two big guys inside that we'll have to maybe double. LSU was just a different team but can't say how. Not sure Conditt or Jones will be able to hold Prowl or Voigt down inside.
Yes we can beat them, but I do think Wisc turned up the pressure and never let Colgate hardly get a '3' off in the last 7 min.

Wisconsin won the Big Ten?

Prowl was jacking threes mostly from what I saw. He needs to find a few protein shakes it looks like.

Makes you kinda laugh doesn’t it.

Wisconsin is a high IQ team and won't turn it over. They will exploit us in some areas. I don't think we can rely on the three ball to win. We are going to have to score in transition and in the paint in he half court offense. Should be a good game.
